I Am Officially Apostate!

If you are considered an "apostate" for sharing the Vicki Boer story with others, I can't think of a better cause. The Watchtower Society should be ashamed and humiliated at its conduct with regard to this case. And the "brothers and sisters" of your congregation should be ashamed for their participation in the rejection and shunning of you.
You will find that Jehovah's Witnesses will be the ones to be embarrassed and awkward when you meet them in public. I think many of them feel that it is wrong to shun and ignore others who once were in association with them. But they have the rules and regulations of the organization to obey. Just remember it is not you who needs to be on the defensive in this matter. They have to answer for their own conduct.

Congratulations! There is something to be said for those officially declared by dubs as apostates. Not sure what it is.

Congratulations, Shamus!
Welcome aboard! As Joy2bfree said earlier, you have a few bumps ahead, so be prepared. Keep your chin up and move on.
When they come at you, just remember the scene from the Wizard of Oz "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain; I am the great and powerful Wizard of Oz!" And remember that all they are is smoke and mirrors ( not even that!)
We are all here cheering for your!
regards,
Frank

What a great reason to be labelled an apostate. What goes along with that label, of course, is the implication that you commit all the other sins that they rag on and on about,so I guess you better get busy sinning! Shunning doesn't have to be a two way street, in fact, it is a far more an enjoyable sport when one actively engages in a heavy offense game of anti-shunning. Shoshana

I am trying to contact that friend of mine... just sent him an email. Can you imagine? Being apostate for talking about Vicki Boewer?
OMG, I'm soooo scared! They will never shut me up!
