These WT representatives remind me of a crazy person wearing a tin foil hat and shooting imaginary lazer beams out of their eyes, and wondering why no one has burst into flames.

Newsflash to the Elder's: Your superpowers are imaginary.

my wife and i planned on fading but the elders now want a shepherding call and we are just done.

i know that many play the game to try to stay in, but i'm not a game player and neither is my wife.

our families already shun us because we reached out to a disfellowshipped family member.

Sounds like you know what you need to do. So all the best with it.

I would like to DA for the reasons you have mentioned, but have held off as I feel I don't acknowledge their authority therefore do not need to resign. I may feel differently one day in which case I would inform them that I 'm withdrawing my membership based on my conscience as I do not want to be associated with an organization that does not report abuse.

why would you proceed to invite me to their meetings?

Start saying you no longer "feel" it's a cult and you now know it's a cult and see if the invites continue.

You could request in the letter that they inform you in writing before any announcement is made.

True closure is something this damned religion denies it's people. It's all part of their sick and twisted little agenda to have people mentally enslaved for life.

True closure is something you give yourself permission to do.
