Its so strange she would call you out of the blue. Maybe it was the "bring them back to Jehovah fever" from the DC or whatever the crapfest is called these days. Sorry she was so evil to you. Rise above it, just hang up and block her if possible or screen her. Just a suggestion.

After 2 years my parents make contact. The end result is that I promise them to cryogenically preserve ONLY their heads
by paulmolark init has been 2 and a half years since my departure from the religion.
i was told by my parents from the start that i would never speak to them until i returned to jehovah dog.
a few months later they told people they hoped i died before the end came, then all of this culminating in them telling my inactive / fading sister that they don't consider me a child anymore and they have given me up to satan.

The Kingdom Hall is a public place so its open to the DF'd. That's the official view. The attendance at a gathering is up to the family. When my mom died my family hugged and showed affection to my DF'd brother. He was allowed full access to grieve at the gathering after. We refused to be the same as all the elder asshats in the congregation. We didn't even have an elder give the memorial talk at the Kingdom hall, a friend did it. Best memorial ever. It was a small gathering after. -

Why would anyone want to join jovie world?
by Doltologist ini can understand why someone who was born of jovie parents would want to leave jovie world.
i can see why someone who had joined jovie world would want to leave.
after all, why would you want to stay in such an evil institution?.

Its all planned out. Jehovah is on top of it. Why worry? No permanent damage will be done, just like now. Maybe there will be multiple re-resurrections throughout the 1000 years? I want to die a hundred ways and come back for a nice panda petting session. Wait, NOT that kind of petting! -

"Its serious business" and that's what he knows, business. It took Jehovah (?) to motivate the CO's and elders to search out the inactive because they sure as hell wouldn't be any more motivated than this douche to do so without divine intervention. He has a voice and demeanor like a guy in a recliner in a wife-beater yelling, "Hey, get your man another beer!" -

having a dark night of the soul
by Miss Behaving ini'm writing this here because i need someone to talk to, and you're the only folks i know who will understand.
most of the time i think i'm a pretty happy and together person, but lately, i'll see something that reminds me of my family and i'll spontaneously start crying.
i miss them so much and my heart keeps breaking, and even though i have kind people i work and volunteer with, i feel so incredibly lonely sometimes.

I hear you. Its not easy to accept that what we feel now about not having anyone is really the same as our reality before. We "had" someone because we were acceptable to them in their world view. Now we have a new world view, pardon the pun, and we must take comfort in building new relationships. Its not easy when you're older because we have few common associations built up yet. Take heart, you will meet good people that care in time. For now, know you are not alone, we hear you. Of course we are not there physically but you will have someone in the near future who will be able to be there for you in person. Do what you have to, just know you are not the first to experience this and that some of us still have our moments. I'm pulling for you.

Has anyone noticed how his mouth slopes from his left downward to his right on an angle? Its annoying. He does speak out of the side of his mouth. -

If being an elder makes a man feel important, imagine how it feels to believe you are going to heaven, will be a king for eternity and are being "used" to do God's will as his spokesman. I think they believe it completely. Its a place you get in stages and all along the way is reinforced by "divine guidance", obviously. Now that doesn't mean they believe that every pronouncement is from god, they have to see through the BS but "wait on Jehovah" like the rest of us slobs were required to do. -

The Killing: is an awesome series. Gritty and hypnotic in its slow percolation. I love both actors in the leads. The female character irritates the piss out of me, but that's why I think the actress is really good.
The Flash!: OH yeah.
Gotham: is inspired. So good.
Wong Mans: James Corden is so funny
Backstrom: Ok its a guilty pleasure, love it.
Turn, Washington's Spies: Need to watch season 2, its well underway.
I watch all shows online. There are sites ya know? Just started Jeremiah, not sure how I feel about it yet. Only on episode 3 of season 1. So far, so good.
