StAnn,
Your probably right. I tried to edit my comment for Nathan. I'm sorry Nathan. I guess I feel alone, but I am alone.
I am an Apostate. But my family would never allow that to happen. Its not an option.
I pray for Jehovah to take me in my sleep.
but im not.

Nathan Natas,
WTF are you talking about? I am on this forum. I have been rejected by everyone that has been in my life for the past 39 years. And all you have to say is "feel the burn". Well I havent used any swear words for 30+ years of my life. But I think I have earned the right to tell you to go yourself.
but im not.

Perhaps. But there is something worse than being DF or DA, or even Apostate, there is the 4th option. When you’re simply erased as an embarrassment.
but im not.

But I’m not. I have lost everything.
I am a third generation JW on both sides of my family. All of my family is in full time service, Pioneers, Elders, CO’s, International Construction, Anointed and GB. The one not in full time service started Co-Hi.
But I’m dead to them. I’m too old to start over.
was it as bad as everyone says, that if you leave the organization, you'll go back to the world, get into trouble and suffer?.
I lost everything.
i stopped going to meetings five years ago.
all my family are jws.
why does my mother still give me a memorial invitation even though i don't go?
At least your Mom still cares about you.
i am now a born again christian with a wife who is too sick to be an active jw but who is insisting on going to the memorial.
i know i am not under any obligation to celebrate the passover but i found out a few months ago that i am part jewish.
for some reason my folks never told me about it and i had to hear it from my cousin who told me that besides being part jewish, my maternal great grandfather was also part irish.
So your a ex-JW, now Born Again, and your going to start practicing Judaism? I think Adventism should be next
since there appears to be no eye=witness testimoney of sin or defect within the governing body of the wbts, could we be dealing with superhumans such as the bible's nephalim?
would this not explain the powerful control this org seems to weild over common folks?.
anyone care to comment?.
I met all of them that were around during the 90's. I'm related to one appointed since then. Most of my contact was while in Bethel and several on this forum have had the same experience.
As for "defects" they freely admit to being counciled on things like envy, pride, humilty, etc. As for sin they state that all men are born into sin, that includes the GB. I would be suprised if any actively engaged in "major" sins, but not because of any special strength. Most had been in the service for decades before they were appointed. If they were prone to something like, for example, adultery its unlikely that they could hide it for that long. But then again how hard is it for a 70yr old man to avoid adultry.
Three were were removed\resigned around 1980. Two for probable homosexualty, another for apostasy.
Some also make the case that they are all guilty of apostasy. But you have to figure that out for yourself.
if anyone has any knowledge regarding this, please tell me.
however, i do wish that someone in the watchtower is reading this and think about it for a moment.
how is the watchtower preparing for the new system?
The last time they made any plans was back in the 1920's (Beth Sarim). Since that time they have shyed away from that sort of thing.
iam writting to ask how do the wts tracks ex-jw's members who have moved from place to place or moved to out of state locations?
in tracking them, is not this a violation of individual right to privacy?
i know of an individual who have been tracked after he moved out of state after he was severally 'persecuted' for deciding to cut of himself off from the congregation only to find wts groups tracking him once again to his new location.
The WTS does not track ex-JW's. Your friend probably has personal problems that go beyond being being ex-JW.
