Should I be doing more?
by WTLies inmy story is posted in the "personal experiences" section of this discussion board and someone responded with and interesting observation.
he said that it's great that i'm now out but that i have 'dues to pay' to those whom i have disfellowshipped and talked out of going to college while serving as an elder.
while serving as an elder i did share in disfellowshipping several members of the congregation, many of whom are still out there being shunned by family and friends.

First Reaction To My UN letters
by Ranchette inmy husband called his cousin this morning and the first thing the cousin said to my husband was something like, are you aware that your wife sent us some information that was very disturbing to us?.
my husband let him know that he did not know i was sending out those letters but he had since done research on the info and found that i was correct.. the cousin asked my husband if he was aware that i could be in trouble for a letter like that.
my husband informed him again that i was telling the truth and he had called the un himself to verify.. the cousin said he would call the society to see if this is true but.

Just leaving? come to the convention.
by borgfree ini will start by saying, i am not a part of the ministry sponsoring the convention and i have nothing to gain (materially) by promoting the convention.. when i left the organization, i did not know what i would do, i would not go to 'babylon the great' so i planned to just live my life as best i could.
someone invited me to the 'witnesses now for jesus' convention, i said i would not go, but changed my mind at the last moment and went anyway.
going to that convention changed my life forever.

WTBTS annual meeting this Saturday
by Skimmer inthe wtbts annual meeting is this saturday (if i recall correctly), and so today (friday) is the last day for the prescient among us to publicly offer our speculations, and if available, inside knowledge as to what new turdlets will be emitted from "god's only true channel".. i will repeat my main guess here and write that we will see a number of organizational changes that have the effect, which has been seen before, of moving assets closer to brooklyn while moving liabilities to the circuit and congregational levels for protective compartmentalization.. anyway, here is your last opportunity to offer your views before the big day.
so feel free to post your comments to this thread; you too can be a cassandra or a tiresias or a fred the wonder cat.. well, skip the last one.

Whats your thoughts on sex & the WTS
by Leander inhopefully this topic won't shock anyone, i'll try to keep my comments as tasteful as possible.
just recently (last weekend) my younger brother met with the elders because he was engaged in fornication.
the elders decided to disfellowship him even though he had long stopped having any contact with the person he had been involved with.
