Wonderful letter, Cathy. This will add a new dimension to August 19.
I just printed it out, thanks to JH.
Love, Blondie

I think this is the way to go...................local media.........................I have often thought about writing a letter, explaining how hard it is to leave the JWs, about the shunning and having to stay anonymous.
We should let our communities know the real truth about this religion, after all we must have spent hours ( ok many were fruitless ) trying to built up a good reputation for it.
Well done !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will never again let another person or religion make my decisions for me. I will continue to live my life responsibly and with integrity and love for my fellow travelers in this world.
Excellent Statement of what the goal of living should be. Ditto!

Great letter, Cathy! Upbeat, succinct, personal and dynamic - free of repellant hyperbole. Well done! Having spoken your mind, just sit back and enjoy the show... fireworks and fanfare included. You're the director!

If the elders want to talk to you about that letter, just pretend it's "another Cathy L", and how shocked you were to see such a letter!
Theocratic warfare works both ways...

Cathy, this is WONDERFUL!!!
I'm really glad you were able to get it published. I can't seem to make our newspaper print anything, even a simple thank you to my kid's school, let alone any of the Witness stuff. I guess I need a new angle. You've given me some food for thought.

Stehphanus-Theocratic warfare won't work here. Cathy is related to almost the entire elder body AND the congregation. (Or the majority of it! LOL)
