This is an actual case. a Jw was recently disfellowshipped heres the reason. he was and elder and regular pioneer at the time baprized 40 years he decides to rent a room from a women who rents rooms out to singles ,he moves in and there's another guy there also renting a room he happens to be disfellowshipped . The elders meet with the elder we will call John because he is now liveing in same house as disfellowshipped person we will call him jim John informs his fellow elders he is not in a position to move because he is on fixed income and cannot afford to move. His fellow elders inform him if you do not move we will remove you as pioneer , we'll he can't move so they remove him as pioneer. Next they say if you don't move we will remove you as elder.Can't move so he is deleted as elder Next they say if you don't move we will disfellowshipp yes you guess it a man in 40 years and 35 as pioneer and 25 as elder is booted wow he has been df for 4 years and cannot move.

I would like to sayts untrue. BUT I have a df.d nephew that the Elders wont reinstate because he is living with his inactive mother and brother. Elders make the rules as they go along.

A single brother living in the same home as a woman to whom he isn't married to is a cause for disfellowshippIng.

Well, to be consistent with my critical thinking skills, I "hear" what you are saying but, as relayed by you, (e.g., first this, then that, then this...etc) it does sound overly dramatic.
I'm not saying it didn't happen - just that anyone can claim anything on the internet. In this regard, I think A Believer's comments are reasonable.
