joe134cd4 hours agoI think you may be surprised. I walked out of the Hall nearly 2 years ago. Up until that point I had been active. Had not one elders visit and only 3 other people bothered to call on me. 2 of those 3 only called so they could fill in F/S time. I guess you can call me lucky.

"Jehovah clearly answered my prayer!"
by stuckinarut2 inso the fade is progressing well.... however, it has been noticed by the 'hounders', who i know will be "following up" with us soon i'm sure.. so i have thought of a way of shutting down the questions etc.... if they ask about things like meeting attendance and field activity, i am going to say something like:.
"oh, thanks for your interest and concern brothers.
this means a lot.

Not until all the KHs have the logo and the JWs get used to it, first?
Maybe next year...or the next...

I feel sorry for those still trapped inside. What a life disaster.
You can only imagine the looks on the faces and thoughts in the minds of the JWs when they see this for the first time in a group setting, no less.
Outrage will HAVE to be suppressed. Outbursts will be noted and you may need to answer some questions!

"Evidence" of a "smokelike pall"... This was the last straw for me back in 2008. Fade began with this:
by DarioKehl infrom that nutty red book of insanity, the grand climax at hand book, chapter 22, paragraphs 7 & 8. .
i had my doubts since childhood.
i went along with it to please people.

that locust band was given divine authority and began to exercise it in proclaiming powerful judgment messages
This is INSANE!
I went through all four times in the Climax bookstudy... ( yeah like the title of that book didn't make *everyone* think of an orgasm at least once )
I even conducted much of the fourth time as an assistant.The GB has divine authority because we say so. Real nice.

How about, no...
And when you send in your checks, do not write 'for Nepal Relief' on the memo line.

Still no updates.
My friend is taking this way better than I can imagine.
It just doesn't seem matter to her. At all.
Makes me want to DA myself right away.So, what's the deal if they meet without you ever "defending yourself"?

First post, looking to meet up with ex-JWs for a paper?
**RED FLAG**
I won't voice any accusations, but it sounds "witch hunty"... ( that may have been an accusation )
If you are serious, go to JWFACTS.com
Give us some history about yourself, what you know, why the JWs to research?

"I just don't like being lied to"
by stuckinarut2 inso i dropped this comment to someone from "my" congregation...... "i just don't like being lied to".... this was in response to their attempt to become my 'bff' (i'm sarcastically using the expression 'best friends forever' here).
i ran into them in the street.
they started chatting all about the cong gossip, teachings, upcoming witness events etc.... i was just quiet and not really contributing to the conversation.. when she asked "so what's new with you?

Make sure you are up on Matt 18 when your buddies call.
You are moving in the right direction. I can feel it!!
It amazing, because if push comes to shove, you spoke the truth.
The magazines ARE full of lies. The evidence is mountainous.Of course they won't look at that, now will they?
