Life after JW
by Mr. Rebel8 inas you all know from my introduction, i'm not a former jw.
i was raised rc, though like ever good rc, i got to church no more than twice a year (christmas and easter).
if there was a wedding or a funeral that year, i generally skip one or both of the holidays to boot.

Life IN or Out of JW's suck
by Smoky ini've been keeping tabs on my old congregation for the last 3+ years (i dont even remember when was the last time i went to a meeting) it is not easy, i have joined a site named 'bebo' and have a handfull of so called 'friends' in my network.
mostly from my old congregation, they seem to acknowledge my existence, but keep there distance.
no one ever invites me to anything or to hang out.. time flies and things change.

The fallout and the pain
by lola28 ini got an email back from an elder this morning and it looks like the boe is going to treat my email as a letter of disassociation.
he said he was sad but would forward my email to the congregation that currently has my publishers card.
this wonderful elder also took the liberty of calling a brother that im really close to and told him about my email, he also sent him a copy (this brother is not an elder!).

1st post, but not new!
by brother inhello everyone, been browsing the forum for quite a while now(about a year) and decided its time to post.
i'm male, just turned 36 on the first of april, i've been in a the process of fading for about two years now, not that easy having come from a witness family.
i've been in doubt about this religion for most of my life, but finally built up the courage to stop going to the meetings, finding out now how big and beautiful this world is and realizing how much i missed out on "real" life!.....i started to fade about the time i was being pushed, yes pushed into becoming a ms. i did not want to have that duty, and i say duty, not "privelege" as they would say because thats what it is, a duty!

Do you think it bothers elders, to know they can not control us now?
by free2beme inlast summer i went to a wedding of a relative that is a witness.
we're not disfellowshipped or disassociated, but have been inactive for about ten years.
because no one mentions our history to others, very few members of our relatives congregations, even know we used to be witnesses.

Last Resting Place of Charles Taze Russell
by Dr Jekyll ini was doing a bit of research for the apostate team that's going to circumcise the top of russell's pyramid by taking its top off and making off with it.
checking out some maps of the location i fired up google earth.
for those of you who want to see this do the following make sure you have "google earth community (unranked)" ticked on the left hand side in the layers section.
