Relatives Who Love Shunning? Here's a Little Trick!

  One of my now-fading Witness relatives thought this one up: You send out a regular e-mail to a long list of all your

  relatives, updating them on the latest family news and attach the latest cute baby or pet photos. Keep it light

  and positive and add your cultish, brainwashed shunning Witness relatives to the address list.

  This way, just like internet porn ( which countless Jehovah's Witnesses are addicted to privately viewing), they can

  discreetly read your general family e-mail and view your emotion-triggering pictures of kids, puppies, kittens, and happy

  family gatherings.

  If they come back with some self righteous crap about 'take me off your list", ignore them. You never know what

  might happen as result of discreet evidence that you are happy - and your life is good.

  You'd have to rotate your e-mail addresses. Individual addresses can be blocked.

  Another thought, the header should say something like "READ THIS!!!!!!!"

  thats nice, sometimes its easy to forget the little things that make a difference, leaving the org takes not only courage but independance, more so than non-xjws because many of us have family members who anchor us to our conflicted past, sometimes the way we live our life is the best "witness" for Witnesses

  Here's another detail: If your jerkwad relatives are real hardline, get their kids e-mail addresses and use them

  instead.
