    Yeah I have given out more than enough info to identify myself on here, but I guess the elders simply don't care enough about me to seek me out and destroy.

    Some might suggest that if we are concerned about being exposed, it means we're still captive to the cult.

    Wait a gosh darn minute. I thought you meant will I be removed from posting.

    Did you mean if someone knew I was posting then I would be disfellowshipped?

    I do not fear that.

    I mean, are you afraid that a JW might find out you post here?

    Like undercover I don't really care much anymore but don't go out of my way to expose myself. Though have already revealed more than enough to be easily identifiable to a JW family member. But I was off the radar long ago...no one is snooping around for me.

    *waves to Sab's family too*

    I did not know you were from Boulder, Magwitch - we have a cabin between Lyons and Estes Park in Boulder county.

    I post on other forum boards... sports, cars, motorcylces and I keep my true identity hidden there just as much, if not more so, there. Does that mean I'm afraid that I'm captive to a cult because I don't identify myself on those boards?

    I don't if I would call it fear. I just would rather that certain people not know that I'm here. It's none of their business and what they don't know won't hurt them.

    We have never disfellowshipped anybody over at Ferrari for buying a Lamborghini. Corvettes, perhaps, but not Lamborghini.

    Yes, I really did when I first joined and for a while after. Quite a few people know my real identity now although I wouldn't want to make that link for all to see, partly because I have a lot of JW family and partly because I wouldn't want anyone googling my name to find everything I have posted here. Some parts of your online life are better anonymous for professional reasons too.
