  Excuses to miss the meeting that won't raise suspicion of a fade

  by kairos in

  the first step to fading is to begin missing the meetings.. "if" anyone misses you, a quality excuse must be at the ready.

  this will produce empathy toward you as opposed to suspicion.. 1. car problems ( don't mention that you caused them ).

  2. stuck on the phone resolving insurance, billing, etc issues.. 3. sick ( of the meetings ).

  I was preparing for the most important meetings of the year: memorial and convention. 

  
  

  I was looking to see which house I wanted after Armageddon- ya know it's never too early to prepare for the new system.

  I lost track of time while I was out in service before the meeting.

  Counting service time in a creative way

  by nevaagain in

  couting time and, how to count time while doing as little service as possible is often a hot topic around witnesses.

  i even overheard pioneers discussing about it.

  they call it "creative time counting" (i translated that phrase from a different language so bear with me ;-).

  so it has been quite a while since i've last been on this site.

  the jist of my story is that about 5 years ago, i started a research journey that took me 2 1/2 years to complete.

  against the advice of this board, i decided to show my wife because i mistakenly thought she valued truth.

  Will the GB now accept Higher Learning???

  by 7Starz in

  reported in many news outlets today including the wall street journal: president obama is pushing for the first two years of a community college to be included in the normal education of the country's children.

  the education law currently has a free education from k-12 and obama now wants to include a 2 year community college degree for free (well the tax payers will pick up the tab).

  so basically k-12 and a 2 year college associates degree.. if this becomes law, will the gb change their view on higher education and say:.

  A 2 year tuitionless college would be viewed as Satan the devil luring in Jehovah's people. Dangling free items in front of our faces. I mean even Satan offered Jesus all of the kingdoms of this world. But Jesus was faithful to Jehovah God and he was blessed for denying Satan's appealing offer. This sounds like something they would say. Lol

  i've been out of the religion for a little while now but my family is still "strong in the truth".

  i got a call today asking if i could stop by to have a discussion.

  they just had their circuit assembly and this is typically when they decide to talk to me, while they're spiritually energized hah.

  what would you recommend for an unbaptized publisher that has learned ttatt and is inactive?

  do you think it is best for someone to just continue to be inactive and live & let live?

  or take time and write a letter wishing to no longer be an unbaptized publisher?.

  I am going to text him the link to this post. @Mikey I agree the elders have their own issues to handle. I also think it is important for no one to rely on the body of elders for encouragement! And That is interesting @Atlantis and the dubs always made it seem like shunning was reserved for baptized members.

  @mikey Did anyone ever reach out to you? Or does anyone still reach out to you? I asked because my friend he stopped attending due to depression and the elders told him to keep attending meetings and pray to jehova. He stopped attending, inactive for a year, and no one has even contacted the poor guy. He thinks they're ignoring him so that he will come back into the fold. Is this possible?
