    Well it was just an idea. I must admit I was not relishing the idea of attending a meeting again. I do wonder though if there is any way to reach these people.

    I'd rather be "trained/gang banged" by a bunch of AIDS riddin homosexuals who didn't use condoms in the process. (I do have gay friends - but you get my point).

    I don't think I could stomach it. And I'm sure I would open my big mouth and say something(I'm not disfellowshipped) that I shouldn't, after all the do encourage inciting one another to love and fine works! It's better if I stay away.

    Ballistic,

    that's a commendable thought you wanting to reach out to other df persons, but I agree with JT.

    Get a hobby or take some classes at a university. It sounds like you want to be productive and help people, just find another way to do it.

    Hugs,

    There is an interesting article on freeminds about why disf'd JW's are often the WT's most ardent defenders. They 'jilted lover syndrome'.

    http://www.freeminds.org/psych/whyleave.htm

    Interestingly, I sent an email out to a number of persons when I DA'd with a link to a website critical of JW's. Nobody responded to it except for one guy who was disf'd (I didn't know it when I sent the email). It was sad, he definitely fit the description of the disfellowshipped WT defender described in the above linked article to a T.

    I think if anyone does try it.......for the first couple of visits just be nice and listen.Leave out what you know for a while because this is what they are looking for in you.Let them know you are a nice guy that cares for them. This will do much more good than bringing up Silentlambs, the U.N., or any of the other smut you have on the dubs.......Take care

    +++++

    excellent advice

    Just the thought of standing there singing those kingdom melodies about the love among them is repulsive to me.It is all such a bunch of hogwash I wouldn't want to be there for any reason.
