  Guarding the platform at assemblies and conventions

  can anyone tell me why this practice was stopped.

  i was told the reason for the guards was to prevent apostates from "attacking" anyone up there and disrupting the program.

  has anyonne witnessed an "attack" of apostates gone wild?

  anyone ever heard of THE RIVER church?

  every week these guys come to my door, hand me a couple loaves of homemade looking bread and a bag of beef jerky, then they invite me to a church service held in a community center with the promise of pizza and coffee.

  i know that many churches do outreach work, but this goes above and beyond anything i've ever heard of before; especially since these guys look like they could use the food a lot more than i can.

  natrually i'm intriged.

  Do you think of yourself as an apostate

  by barbar in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  many of the people on this site say that they are apostates.

  but that is not the way i feel about myself.. i am not angry with the "witnesses" or the organisation, i don't feel that i wasted my life.

  i just think that i was stupid to believe it for 30 years (well sort of believe it, i did have severe doubts on and off).

  but you have to admit that some are nice caring people.

  my wife missed the meeting to night due to flu and a sister who has far more health problems than us phoned to ask after her.

  she even asked after me, brother 'long time no see'!
