Hey all, I'm wondering about whether it would be a good idea to list myself on such a database, but I hesitate because if an active JW sees it they won't talk to me anymore (I'm just 'inactive') and word may spread. I don't know a lot of people from other areas, and I don't know that they would find such a database either, but I just like to keep things open. But of course, if I don't list myself and someone I know who has left should happen to check then that would be an opportunity missed. So what do you think?

Everyone watches the dbs and chat roome from xers to active members. The organization is currently hollowing out, with an awareness of apostate activities from easy personal access to the internet. Some joho's enjoy the confrontation with apostates and fell more secure in their "faith" as an antagonist.
All we hear about is internet porn, maybe this District Conv we'll learn about internet "scorn".
If you want to know who is watching, drop keywords like "the lambs" or casually mention the UN.

There are a lot of us here that are not DA'd or DF'd. http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/69816/1.ashx You ARE listed here, right? Also, if your concerned you shouldn't use any part of your real name...Mark So I am a bit confused with your question. ezekiel3

What do you mean 'hollowing out'?

Flash, I meant list my entire identity like full name, cong I went to basically so a JW/ex who know/knew me in person can identify me. As it is Mark is just the first name and California is a big state.
