Follow up on our Baptism Nullification letter
by joe_from_kokomo indear friends:.
some of you have pm'd me while i was away from this site, wanting to know how everything worked out after sending in our baptism nullification letters to the local kh and the society.
(search on baptism nullification to find these postings if you want the details, even a sample of the letter we used).. well, in a word: great.

UN sends reply to my inquiry about WTS NGO association- proof at last!
by joe_from_kokomo indear friends:.
it's been a while since i posted last, even though i probably still suffer with a newbie status, i did some dandy postings a few months back.
my wife and i are now approaching the 1 year anniversary of our split with the wtbts, and are quite happy with our decision.. one thing we did last year was to write to the u.n directly (i think i got the address from a posting here on this site) and asked specific and direct questions about the wts's involvement and knowledge of ngo requirements.

Mags on tape
by Eyebrow2 inseveral years ago i was going to college full time.
i also was a single mom, so i needed to work...i took on a 7 day paper-route...drove at least 65 miles everday from 2 to 6 am...not a lot of money, but i needed the daytime for school...and godforbid i miss any meetings.
i must admit i really enjoyed them at the time.. anywhoo...i requested a subscription to both the watchtower and awake so i could keep up with my mags while i was working since i was following behind.

WTS slanders world famous rock n roll band - the truth revealed
by joe_from_kokomo inyou have probably heard the excerpt in a talk at your kingdom hall.
it has been inserted in more than one outline, and although it sounds pretty dated by now, it is still in use.
we started attending in 1995 (we're out now), but i can recall hearing this same story told at least 5 or 6 times by different brothers in their sunday morning talk:.

"the truth" has them coming and going...
by joe_from_kokomo inin a recent article from christianity today, they quote that christians are more "mobile" today, and they pack up and go somewhere else whenever they so choose.
(although i know quite a few who are too psychologically immobilized to do this.
according to their article found here: http://www.christianitytoday.com/le/2003/003/19.7.html, 32% of jws left and 39% joined.

My Secret Email Campaign -or- "Dozens Now Living will Now Know"
by joe_from_kokomo inwell, after our baptismal nullification letter, most of the witnesses snub us when we bump into them.
saw a snooty sister from my own book study, and she pretended i was the invisible man.. so, i decided to do a "maverick" and have launched a top secret email campaign to help raise the news iq of my former witness friends and family.. i have created a dummy email account at a major portal and i am bccing all my old witness friends and relatives (mostly relatives) hyperlinks to the juicy news articles on jws and the un, jws and child abuse, etc.
i put a simple subject line and a simple one line "read this article" followed by a hyperlink to the newspaper article.. it has been very effective.
