Thanks to each and everyone of you
by StoneWall inafter many months of lurking and researching on oh so many different topics, doubts, concerns, and viewpoints i decided to get my feet wet and start posting.
many times i wished to contribute something to a thread but was to apprehensive to get an account.
then as time passed and i read many more of the post from various members the uneasiness subsided somewhat and my desire to proceed into previously uncharted waters grew.

Phone Conversation With My Dad (Elder)...
by deaconbluez ini got so pissed off yesterday after this phone conversation...he's such a sweet man, but very much under the control of the watchtower.
we both agreed that we missed each other and would love nothing more than to be able to do some stuff together and have a relationship, but he said, "that's all up to you.
well if that's the case, let's plan a trip or something in the next couple of weeks.

Its interesting your dad does not know the generation change. I think at least 80% of JW's do not know the generation change and those that do know probably struggle with it.

post - df experience
by Solace1998 init was a shock to many when i was df'ed -- .
but i found afterwards, many did not want to obey the arrangement... one sister cornered me at a local supermarket, and made sure everything was okay with me, and if i ever needed someone to talk to, that she and her hubby were available... .
there is more to this, but another sister i worked with was quite ardent about talking to me about much more than just work .

That is one of the problems disfellowshipping creates. It allows members of the congregation to judge others...even when that person is reinstated, they still judge them. I always wondered why when someone is reinstated the boe still has them on probation for a year and decide when they get privledges back...would love for them to show the scripture that allows them to do that. The whole practice of shunning allows all in the congregation to judge others.
How many times does the WTS councel the congregation about judging others? Its a learned behavior that the WTS taught so well.

Another trip down memory lane
by lost_light06 inthe boe in my childhood congregation was probably the nicest and most sincere group of elders i have ever come across, at least the boe i grew up with.
i still hold each of them in high regard, they were truly very kind and caring people.
however, apparently before i was born (pre 79) and when i was a small child there was quite a bit of trouble in that cong.

Solace those that spoke to you and had concern for you are Christ like...they know in their hearts this is what Jesus would want them to do.
Those that shun you and would not help you push your car are doing what Satan would want them to do.
If they would just read the bible and not the WTS literature they would know shunning is not scriptual. Even the WTS said excommunication was pagan...of course that was before they decided to practice disfellowshipping...I guess "New Light" changed and it was not pagan anymore.

Is it just me?
by almostbitten ini've listened to a number of jws speak about the "new world" and it strikes me that many of them plan to carry a lot of materialistic and worldly expectations with them.
for example, i heard one lady complain about the williams' (venus and serena) success as tennis players, that they should be out there preaching and waiting to play tennis in the new world.
another one came from a visiting elder speaking at the local hall.

I remember a group of jw's speculating about having cars and other convienences and this one brother says to everyone...I'm not getting up early in the morning to go to the factory and build your cars! They all just kinda of stood there and thought for a bit and they all walked away puzzled about what h just said...I was laughing because he he kinda of shattered their idea of a " Techadise."
