    Shunning messes people up. It's not "Christian", at least the way JWs practice it!

    Shunning; what does it do?

    I can only say what it did to me !!! Have you ever felt like your heart broke? I can honestly say I have .

    No kidding I felt it!!!! My daughter & grand-child must shun me because I dont believe Jesus came in 1914.
    I wont live much longer( 81+) & every day I miss them.

    Good site I hope your get lots of answers

    Shunning? It led me down the road to chasing whores and heavey drinking & gambling and I begain smoking Camel filters, and to taking medication for depression, (not to mention I did not feel life was worth living anymore) I was told that I was on the same level as the demons and if the end came I would die unless I was reinstated. So, me and my family doctor decided it would be a good idea to tell the elders to shove it where the "Sun Don't Shine". Oh and by the way I can now grow my beard as long as I want now with out feeling god is going to kill me at amagedon for being less of christian for it and there-by becoming more emotionaly depressed.

    For some reason I had trouble posting to the blog. Shunning alienates families forever. I have not seen my father in 29 yrs. I have never observed anything good come from it.
