a month ago i travelled alone to italy for three days and i had the opportunity to visit the beautiful florence and re-visit many parts of rome.. but most importantly, i had the opportunity to stay alone and think about my situation and to make up my mind.. i've had very clear for almost 5 years that i will eventually leave the religion, but i couldn't decide when.. but now i know : i will leave on april 20th, the day after the memorial.. that day i will talk to my parents (this is by far the hardest thing to do) and soon afterwards i will talk to my closest friends, then i will send my disassociation letter.
i know that i will let them down, i will hurt them, most probably some of them will cry... but i need to live coherently for the first time in my life.
i'm sure that living in this contradiction is affecting and will affect my mental health and it's time for me to help myself instead of others.
I just stopped going. No sporadic attendance or just the memorial, just stopped and didn’t explain why.
If you want to have a honest conversation with your parents do so. I only gave genuine reasons to my parents and a single JW friend. Worked out for the best because years later I still rub shoulders with JWs, It’s like I’m an enigma to them.
It’s your life and you are 100% right in wanting no part of JWs. Just don’t stress while you’re fading, try and enjoy life during the process.
All the best.
more than half the country approve of the president.
( just thought you might wanna know)🤓.
But wasn’t President Trump going to destroy civilisation and the world as we know it?... or was that Ivanka?
i was howling watching cedars latest video of tm111 buying a dozen bottles of scotch ((maccallans scotch).
you can't write this stuff.
right, i'm now off to buy a bottle of maccallans 😂..
@MMM - Your failure to understand is now staggering.
I gave 3 examples where I’ve seen disciplinary action was handed down, some time later in the discussion you handed out accusations of ‘projection’ against TM3.
Go back, read and think.
We know moderate elders are everywhere, especially in regards to alcohol.
I have drank scotch with them after meetings and beers at work with them on meeting days. One thing they were all aware of is presenting themselves as sober always, especially to the conservative elders or MS families.
This is because the more conservative position is usually favoured in the weakest conscience rules JW world.
In one of the examples I gave days ago, an elder in my old circuit was going away for a camping trip with a few other couples and families. Loaded the wagon with booze, and was reported in doing so. After an investigation he was stood down as an elder. I gave two other examples of just things I’ve seen.
Sir82, Cofty and a host of others have given pretty succinct summaries of the topic.
Maybe take a break for a while, you might start thinking clearly.

Drearyweather, you’ve been marked. Keep this brazen conduct up and you’ll be removed.

Ok, so it’s not the item. It’s not that it was liquor. It’s that it was $800, correct?
If you don’t understand, any further explanations would be in vain.
This isn’t a massive scandal, the JWs are a very insignificant group and TM3 a pathetic insignificant man.
Why worry about losing credibility from a thread like this? Who’s going to lose it? We don’t have any, we are not anything, exJws are less important than current ones.
Those claiming it’s not an issue sound as fanciful as anyone else. This will be an issue to ex jws and hopefully many current.

What if he bought $800 worth of iced cream?
That would be ridiculous, actually extremely stupid and I would expect a similar thread with lots of outrage and confusion, just more Mr Whippy jokes.

Hey MMM, do you understand that one does not need to get drunk, slur your words and stumble around drunk, to develop alcohol dependence?

Some of the attempts to play it down are just as speculative and silly.
If he’s a corporate guy his corporation is based on very conservative values, and this is a PR disaster at the least.
Buying the same type of grog does not make the most likely explanation gifts.
I’m looking at my bar right now, about 30+ bottles of various spirits, vodkas, rum, gin etc, a few single malt whiskeys, plenty of cheap rubbish, presented on 3 nice shelves. Some of those bottles are years old, in fact most of them are 2+ yrs old, except the odd few.
The odd few are the ones I drink, these get bought more often.
Recently after doing a friend a favour, they kindly bought me two bottles of the same thing because they know it’s what I like to drink.
It’s not a staple, single malt whiskey or any alcohol for that matter, it’s a luxury. It’s a luxury that Mr Morris cannot afford.
I would say he cannot afford to be seen spending that much $ on alcohol in public. It’s the life he’s created for himself, he deserves everything he gets.

His clothing is irrelevant, I couldn’t really give a shit what he wears, fact is he’s actually dressed to code, neat and tidy.
No laws were broken.
Are we allowed to possess an inverted liquor bottle dispenser? Can men take half a Ute full of beer for a planned week long camping trip? Can one collect alcohol bottles and have them on display in their own house?
Yes.. except in the totalitarian world this guy invented, in each of theses scenarios I’ve seen either qualified men lose their appointments, or others like myself put on restrictions.
Who does AM3 answer to? This is what pisses everyone off.
