  I had volunteered to help with a new assembly hall.

  We were on the one of the first crews. Installing erosion control on the project perimeter.
  Summer, hot climate and dusty. 1000s of yards from public street view in an unincorporated part of the county.

  When the other volunteers came to pick me up, they said if I didn't change into long pants I could not come along. ( Uber Dubs fresh back from some missionary assignment in Sierra Leone ) I was wearing the white painter's shorts that I wear *everyday* as a contractor. ( later an article came out in the WT with a picture of a construction volunteer in the same style of shorts... I showed them )

  I was stupid and changed into long pants. I let them regulate my personal freedom.
  Why didn't I recognized the cult control?

  Exposing one's identity. When?

  i've been toying with the idea of just coming out and posting my name and location as an attempt to be available to locals that secretly browse the forum that have known me for up to 25 years.

  ( "reaching out", so to speak ).

  i'm not da'd or df'd, so this most certainly could end in a dramatic confrontation.

  Interview with an Apostate: Muddy Waters

  were you a born in or a convert?.

  i began studying with a pioneer sister when i was 20 years old, my life had just gone to total sh*t (my husband had recently left me, was all alone with our young babies, and was very depressed).

  "the truth" sounded so wonderful, the jws were so helpful, kind and supportive.

  This was a touching post. Thanks for making it.

  The time line of events is nearly identical to my own life.

  Has anyone heard of someone, anyone, EVER, that has been DF'd for accepting blood?

  Why not just take the blood, willingly... Get DF'd at the worst. You're still alive.

  People get DF'd for smoking, having sex or watching porn, but saving your own life is not worth it?

  EFFFFF!!!!

  Also, it appears they are ramping up the dangers and threats of apostates prior to "convention season".

  in the early 1990s, i was in a meeting.

  we were making some major changes to the main it system of the company i worked for.

  during the meeting i said, 'what would happen if one of our major customers went belly up and shouldn't we build something into the system to cope with this?'.

  So, my sick at home wife was listening in to the meeting last night.

  I heard an insane comment ( more than the others ) by one of the elders.

  He says:

  "Jehovah is the god of war. The god of Armageddon".

  Designed to maintain urgency, anxiety and fear. Thanks, Watchtower!!
