"simply a result of the misapplication of the organizational guidelines"
Meaning: WE WERE PERFECT WE DO NOT APOLOGIZE FOR ANYTHING,
Indeed a poor workman who blames his tools!
More accurately a matter of throwing the scapegoat (the Branch) under the bus!
Truth was this was a long standing mandate from "The Good and
Righteous Judge"
Who famously abandoned his own wife and son, the family no one knew about,
The founder of Jehovah' Witnesses, serving Jehovah the founder of all
families
Who left His name people to the instruction and care of this man!
And now The Wicked Judge was dead!

I think the CO just knocked on my door.
by schnell ini can't be too sure, because i didn't answer, but my mother had called me this morning and said this week is our co visit.. it's been a while since i last had elders at my door.
last time that happened, i posted about it, so it was only a few months.. i really don't want to talk with them.
is there a chance i'll be announced as "no longer one of..." after he's left if i don't?.

From what I can make out you don't have anything to worry about if they
don't get the idea you're living /sleeping with someone they don't think
you should
Or have Cupid saying let me be your valentine on your front door,
A reminder:
Don't talk to them, it's "I'm having personal problems I really can't talk" and
don't say a thing
Express yourself elsewhere!

Correct we if I'm wrong but I see absolutely contrary reasoning in this article which asks:
"Would I patiently wait on Jehovah, or would I be inclined to take matters
into my own hands?"
This man went against what the Branch (the Society) was
strongly suggesting (Don't marry) and did what he thought best
Great!
So why can the Watchtower bring us to the above "point" when it is
the exact OPPOSITE of what the man did?

Flip Flops to Nowhere
by Lostandfound inhow long until wt has flip flopped its way back to anything of the faith many of us knew?
who are the now dead ones giving evidence of their non captivity to babylon etc?

Witness weddings
by dothemath inrecently went to a witness wedding, and after the vows the bride and groom were introduced as "brother and sister".....(then last name).....(then the big kiss).
this is likely not unusual (i've heard it before), but with lots of "worldly" people in attendance it seems out of place to me.. i was just wondering if that's the way it is most places?.

@skeptis
Cheers,
Thank you for the update on beards in Europe,
For me there came to be the time to make a clean break
I just figured I'd fade down to one hour a month with minimal
meeting attendance
I tried that then figured that I just needed more faith
So I did my best again
But that didn't sit right
For ministry it's ok if it means driving around in a car group doing nothing
But for me, if I'm conducting Studies and such I can't tell them partial
truths
That amounts to fraud
More so from the platform
"With great power comes great responsibility"
I don't believe there's a painless way to leave this religion
I lost my wife, adult children, grandchildren
That's the carnage that comes from this religion
It's very painful
Some stay "in" for that reason, a kind of virtual prison
Others just accept the pain as a necessary part of their lives
I couldn'the live a lie anymore
