  hey guys.

  i need to speak about something that has haunted me in the past and has affected me still today.. in school from 3rd to 8th grade i have been severly bullied because i was raised as a jehovah's witness.

  kids everyday would beat and me call me "jo-ho" and chant the name on the school grounds, and the school bus everyday without stop!

  as most suspected, the wts filed their brief, at least it looks that way..... http://appellatecases.courtinfo.ca.gov/search/case/dockets.cfm?dist=1&doc_id=2025979&doc_no=a136641.

  it also notes aob in excess of word count limit.. wonder if they did that to buy more time?.

  Anyone else celebrating the Memorial with just their families at home tonight?

  by ohiocowboy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  tonight, i have decided to bake unleavened bread so that my partner and i can have our own memorial at home.

  i already have the wine, and i will be serving it in an authentic ancient greel drinking vessel called a kantharos that was used in ancient times.

  i've collected ancient greek and roman coins and antiquities for quite a few years, and i thought it would be neat to try be be as authentic as possible by serving the emblems in ancient wares.

  What if you were DF'd for apostacy, but instead of the expected...

  by respectful_observer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this is a hypothethical, so i'm not looking for whether you would ever do this, or "why would you want to subject yourself to this...", but rather, what would happen if some did do this..... .................... you're half of a married jw couple, and you admit to doubts about certain wts teachings and it leads to an eventual disfellowshipping.

  but instead of walking away from the kingdom hall forever, you stay put.

  you faithfully go to every meeting with your spouse.

  First time my dad has talked to me in over a year

  by Joshinaz in

  since the "new light" on shunning everyone who doesn't go to the kingdom hall anymore, my father called me on the phone.

  he talked to me about three minuets reminding me that the memorial is on the 26th and he would like me to go.

  i haven't been to a memorial in over 13 years.
