Chaserious,,so does that mean 'anyone' can just submit a letter like that to the Court? I would expect that the judge(s) are just busy reading the Court records that everything in the Civil Court was done according to 'legal procedure/law.'
Seems strange that the "docket" or Appeals Court would submit and record an 'opinion' letter at this point?

wonderful! There is a high rate of Bethelites that leave the organization in time. 50%? I estimate. Maybe more, are stuck due to family.

wow, I wonder what percentage of elders, that know TTATT? 10%? What percentage are in the doubting stage? Another 10%?
A couple years ago, there was a thread that there were 88,000 elders in U.S. That was about average of 7 elders per congregation. So could there be an average of 1 elder per congregation, not believing or doubting??

Found another JWN-like forum in my language!
by ohnightdivine injust a few minutes ago i found out another ex-jw/jw forum online in my native language.. i am soooo happy because i thought there was very little hope of ttatt reaching these people.
as you can see, very few speak english fluently in my country.. but, yay!
the forum is so alive and up-to-date, just like jwn, and i even saw copies of the menlo park congregation docs.. there is still hope after all.. i'd be glad to see even just one member of my congregation wake up to ttatt..

I enjoyed your video very much. All these personal acounts of former JWs (including Bethelites), circumstances leaving JWdom and recovering their lives is so good, plus trying to go forward and help others is great to see.

Friday and Saturday, I went to two ex-JW Christmas parties!! What fun! 12-15 of us at each. One party were 4 ex-Bethelites!
Everyone moving on. Chattering about the past, but joyful and amazed as we have discovered a good life beyond. Christmas means different things to everyone, but for us is an added symbol of freedom for sure!
Merry Christmas or holiday or end of 2013 year, and Happy New Year! May 2014 be eventful, but mostly joyful and peaceful for youl!

Thoughts on going back, am I the only one that feels this way?
by excaliber inhello everyone, i know you have heard this topic before and your probably thinking.
...not again lol.. but i was wondering if anyone has thought of going back for the same reasons as myself, i don't think its the truth but i searched and my conclusion is that other religions don't have the truth, they are all wrong in my opinion.
if there is no other religion to go too, why leave were i was born and raised.

Hopefully you will find more meaningful ways to have fun and need less 'conditional' friends. Hopefully you can find some classes or interest groups that can be mentally stimulating and not just "wandering" around during assemblies, service, life, etc.
