I hope in the very near future lawsuits are successfully waged against the WT for civil rights violations of its own members. The WT harsh treatment of its members is the reason it is being banned and abused by Russian authorities. Hopefully the whole world will see the WT for what it really is and be toppled like all the prominant dictatorial regimes like saddam Hussein , who knows maybe we all can watch gleefully while the GB are hung like saddam or shot execution style for their crimes against humanity as they deserve. Nothing would make me happier

Ray, I hope that you are doing well, in spite of what you are currently enduring. I wish you all the best.

Ray is one of a kind. He looked them in the face and told the real truth.
They can't handle the truth. Thats why they simply chicken out and say- "Ray is no longer a Jehovah's Witness" and carry on in their mass delusion.
More power to you, Ray!

I’m going to be interested to hear his story. Naturally, I’m concerned over how his family is going to take it. If they support him, well and good, but if the Organization has more influence on them than he does, it’s going to be a bumpy ride.

Wow Ray, that's great. Wish I could be Df'd or Da'd. It becomes so much easier to leave it all behind. To coin a mafia phrase, "once your in you can't quit" so the only way out is to be dead. To them, you are dead. May you rest in peace. You know that you are right and you know that they are bull feces. So enjoy your rightness. Enjoy life....

Wow this is really nice...and sorta weird too lol.
Thank you to all, and thank you to MsGrowingGirl20 for starting this thread. Do I know you on JWStruggle? Things have been a little hard lately, as the news is still sinking in and I have another large source of stress on the near horizon which I will get to in a minute...
So anyway in 8 days they will make the announcement. Not this Tuesday but the following one. I have entertained fantasies of doing one more "apostate manuever" such as attending that night, sitting up front, and then standing up and making a brief statement and perhaps holding it up in sign form as I speak it. (But don't worry everyone in the KH would hear me regardless, as I was blessed with a loud mouth!)
I've discarded this as counter-productive and possibly disrespectful at this point; I've done what I set out to do. The only thing left to do now is to publish it for the public eye to see, which is coming soon. One good friend (SIAM) suggested that I try and send out a press release and get it picked up by a larger newspaper or media outlet that covers religious news, as it is appears that this is the first time that there has been an "undercover" video recording made of one of these star-chamber trials.
The bottom line is that there needs to be (and I feel WILL be) more and more of these made as time goes on. And then at some point hopefully there will be some positive change on the WT's part as they take the pragmatic path of least resistance in order to hold on to their members and "do the right thing".
As a footnote for those that do not know, my soon-to-be ex-wife is suing me for a variety of things, (custody, alimony, mortgage payments, legal fees, the just paid off car, etc.) and trying to radically curtail the amount of time I get to spend with my two daughters, as she of course feels I am a mentally diseased apostate. Later this week I am to be put on the witness stand by her lawyer in a "Kramer vs Kramer" style showdown where he will try and impugn and humiliate me. This has been weighing on me quite a bit and if I can get through one more week of this crazy month from hell I may just live to survive it until my funeral from old age comes on me in a few decades.
There is another piece of good news I could share, but I think I'll hold that one close to my vest for now, at least until after the hearing next week.
Thanks again to you all,
Eric B
