  Do they still DF people???

  by toladest in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i posted this under friends first but may be more appropriate here.....

  i visited my sister recently (she is not a jw and was never baptized but is very close to my mother and brothers) and she was telling me that they are no longer dfing people.

  i told her i heard that too, but that they now announce people as no longer being jw which effectively means the same thing.

  my ex-sister in law cheated on my brother and began smoking as well.

  http://www.nsopr.gov/

  this site contains a list of all states that have registries and puts them on one site.

  what it does is that it routes you to the state page that shows the abuser.

  Read the Watchtower Announcing Jehovah's Kingdom

  by toladest in

  2. friends

  i had a 2 hour discussion with my jw brother (a real breakthrough as far as association) and he said he had problems with the dateline show.

  i asked him what the problems were and he said that for one the watchtower building was "altered" to say "read the watchtower daily".

  i told him it did not say that but i could not remember the exact quote.

  my brother, who has been dfed for many, many years is going to a baptist church.

  he just started attending recently and had a discussion with the baptist minister about the trinity.

  my brother still believes many doctrines of the jw's.

  Mental breakdown blamed on demons

  by toladest in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  all this demon talk reminded me of an incident that happened in our hall to a friends mother.

  she had just had a baby, her 4th, that was unexpected.

  her other 3 kids were much older.

  JW dating sites and the number of divorced!

  by toladest in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was curious to see if i knew anyone that would post on a jw dating site so i checked out jw connections that is linked to on this page.

  i did not find anyone i know but i was kinda shocked to see the number of ones there that were "divorced, but free to marry".

  is this a big problem now or is it just that more divorced jw's use the web to find "mates".
