  Great post, as usual, E-man. Thanks. You aummed it up nicely.

  So right Eman.

  Already the response in our case from well-wishers indicates the offense that is felt in the wider community by the shunning by family members.

  Humans, who are made in God's image, are rightly offended by actions that go 'against the grain' of human relationships.

  In our case, family were 'OK' until the puppetmasters (elders) took control of their situation.

  As you say, "they will reap what they sow". Mrs Ozzie and I will not be hesitant in letting people know the realities of life in the borg.

  Cheers,
  Ozzie

  I couldn't agree more. It isn't as bad as it used to be, but sometimes a rage fills me. I don't hate the poor dupes on the bottom, though I don't have much respect for them either, but I do hate with a purple passion the slimey maggots at the top. These arrogant,evil old bastards have damaged so many. It really does make you want to get a handful of their gnarly little necks and squeese till they fill just a little of the pain they have dished out. I know. Just another cult. No different than most other cults I guess, but the awful twist they give to the word "Truth" is reflected in the "clean" look they like to project. They really are trying to appear as angels of light, offering comfort, peace and love, when in fact they are creatures of darkness, making themselves into the only "Channel" to god and pretending THEY will even "render" the ransom, turning people against their own families and countries, and denying them success or children in this life if they really are "whole-souled." They are as most trouble makers are, their own worst punishment. They don't need me to put a knot on their heads, they will butt it up against their own lies until they are bloody. They deny themselves the pleasure of an extended or even immediate family unless they too are cult members, deny themselves so many friends, deny themselves real careers, and deny themselves the joys of parenthood. My poor befuddled daughter says she wouldn't consider "bringing children into this system" and sad to say I am really glad. I would hate to have grandchildren brought up in this cult, grandchildren raised to look down their noses at everyone else in the world, grandchildren that would have to be denied the pleasures of just being normal, and grandchildren I couldn't visit. Thank God, the children the Witnesses do have are leaving. I hope and pray "This Generation" is indeed their last. I hope the next generation abandons the cult.

  Hi E-man,
  Great thread. Part of it was:

  So many children – grown-up children – have been beside themselves with justifiable rage that this organisation can tell their parents to ignore, shun and emotionally abandon their own children. For many years now, thousands and thousands of DF’d persons have been dwelling in isolation, abandoned by their parents who have acted on the WTBTS’s instructions

  I think the reverse is also true. That the WTBS can tell the adult children to shun their parents. This is also an outrage. Parents who have sacrificed so much to raise their kids can then be shunned if they decide the WT is wrong.
