  I walked away from my congregation. I thought end of story. Why should I care? My circumstances were such that this was possible.

  I met a girl(only IN THE STREET) who was in an emotional distress because she was disfellowshiped and in a very bad way that she was shunned.

  I decided to knock on the door on a couple who contributed to her emotional distress and ask them to not be so rude in ignoring her.

  Bloody Hell the justification they gave for shunning her was very impressive. Sadly not once did they accept there shunning was because the mentality of the group demanded it . In there mind it was a personal decision.

  I guess I signed my death sentence as to my fade .

  My question is when the elders hear of this and the treatment of the girl I was concernd about will they show compassion to her and say the shunning can stop or have I made my self disfellowshipped for no reason

  Clueless......You were very Gallant in what you did. Aside from that I don't know what else to say...Perhaps one day some one will come to your defense if the local elders take up that matter with you. I wouldn't worry too much about it though. You merely expressed your concern for the girl and you ARE entitled to your opinion. Simple, I hope.

  Thankyou for saying I was galent.....Iam unfortunatly not a galent person.....In many situations I have failed to be galent. Maybe on this occassion I was galent. But from this situation I will be galent because I NOW have no fear of the harmless authority structure that exists in J.W fantasy world.

  There is no higher calling than sticking up for the weak and powerless.

  No, they wont change anything. Naw they arent going to df you over. They will watch you like a hawk though.
