2 Witnesses who had their baptism cancelled after fornication! Baptized x2
by Witness 007 inone brother commited fornication...at the judicial committe it was decided that he as a newly baptised brother was not fully aware of his commitment to jehovah so his baptism was anulled, and he had to study again and got "dunked" a second time...for real this time!
also a sister did the same... this is a clause that the elders seldom use....you have to appear very dumb to pass this off.

Horrible conduct by congregation Elders at my cousin's funeral.............
by RULES & REGULATIONS inmy cousin passed away last week from cancer at the age of 49. the cancer spread so fast it took our family by surpise.
we figured she had a couple of years instead of months.
she left 4 children(3 were baptised and 1 was disfellowshipped a couple of years ago).

Hello to all who knew me...
by Joyzabel inas i sit here addressing my xmas cards for this year and think of all the people who have helped me on my jouney this past 7 years and especially the past 3, i thought i would post a thread letting people who knew me know how i am and what i have been up to this past year.. .
it will soon be 2 years since i moved from florida to atlanta, ga. even though it was going back to full time work, i love my job and am glad i have one.. .
i acknowledge that my therapy has helped me to get my mind untangled from being raised in a high control group and from being married to an alcoholic.

The most stupid thing a sister said to me
by Newborn inone of my "so called" closest sister friend in the congregation, said to me when we once had lunch that "if i was a man, i would want to have an affair with you"!!!
i just went numb...what a crazy thing to say.
i think she revealed her sick deep thoughts.

When You Were A JW Did You Prefer A Body of Elders or 1 Presiding Overseer?
by minimus inyears before the elder arrangement, there was only one presiding overseer or congregation servant.
he was thee man.
when i was growing up, we had 2 different men that held that position in the years i was in the hall.

by isaacaustin inlast nite at my parents service meeting an announcement was made regarding the new triple meeting.

if the bell rings you are to stop immediately- not even finishing your sentence.
