what was your emotional reaction when you were x-communicated?
where you devastaed?
where you joyful?
I had not been to a meeting in 2 years. I wrote the body of elders to let them know my ex had grounds to remarry. They really desired the details; however I refused to ever show up for a committee meeting. The first committee gave up on me after I did not show up for a couple of meetings scheduled. They formed a new committee that started to harass me and schedule unattended committee meetings. I truly believe the first two committees did not want to DF me because not only were we all very good friends, but they were aware that a huge part of my leaving the Org was because my elder husband was a complete hypocrite that totally ignored his wife and daughters. A third committee was formed this time by elders that I did not know well at all. One being 28 years old, another one a couple years younger than me and third one who was only just appointed as an elder. I did not show for their committee and they promptly sent me certified letters that I never signed for. I learned through the grape vine that my name had been read at a service meeting.
I am so happy to be out.
hey everybody, i'm in the middle of an ongoing debate w/some jws and they are asserting that everyone knows what they're getting into when they are studying and getting baptized and that nobody forces anyone to become a jw and that you can leave anytime you want.
ok, we know that's not true.
how would you counter that argument?
At a District Convention in the early 80's, there was a statement in a talk on apostacy....

WOW That is Awesome CHICKPEA ! Congratulations on being a smart, cool chick!
it was kind of a sad realization i had the other day that as a witness you are conditioned to not have friends.
i realize that most of this fact is related to my own stupidity and arrogance.
when i was in my teenage years i had a great group of friends that i ran around with.
I was worried that if I became too close to someone, how would I be able to fulfill my job as an Elder and perhaps one day disfellowship someone I really liked?
So very sad
whats the most depressing song you have ever heard?
i would go with either johnny cash - hurt or gary jules-mad world.
This is a new song, however I saw Christina Perry perform it live 2 weeks ago in Denver. It was a very haunting and depressing song.

yugoslavia is my country and always will be.
it was my motherland it represented peace, and a good future, family, joy.
when it fell apart so did the start of falling apart of my life.
Oh Snowboarder, I just want to put my arms around you and give you a big hug. I have children the exact same age as you; my heart breaks for the pain you are going through.
You come to Colorado and I will make you one of my fabulous batches of Sarma and we will wash it down with a little slivovitch
jw's have the tendency to come up with the worst illustrations.
it boggles my mind sometimes.
here's one someone gave me about new light.. when confronted with the fact that since certain teachings change, the jw's never had the truth.
