In this last District Assembly they said it loud and clear a few times: "Stop all association with disfellowshipped and disassociated ones, even if they're family".

I wouldn't have believed it myself if I didn't hear it. I thought family was different, but apparently not anymore.

as you guys may know, i don't ask too many questions on the forum, as i feel that i have a pretty good grasp on things.

but this... i am clueless on..

starting sometime next week, i will have my own apartment.

I lived alone for several periods in my life. I've never had a problem since I'm kind of a loner of sorts.

Between work and playing some sport, or joining a book club, or doing charity work of some type, my life was filled during those times in which I had to live alone.

I hope you'll do just fine when you have a place of your own.

Are JW's Self-righteous?

by Honesty in

friends

a good friend who is a police officer told me last night that he believes a lot of the jw's he has met through the years in his line of work are extremely self-righteous.

i didn't have much of a reply but it did get me thinking about what he said.

so, what do you guys think?

Doubtfully Yours

I think that would qualify for "Understatement Of The Year" award.

Of course JWs are among the most self-righteous people on earth!

By the time they announce a disfellowshipment, everybody already knows what's going on and that it's coming. There's no such thing as confidentiality inside the WBTS.

a question of conscience

by KAYTEE in

dear lurkers/trolls or whatever you consider yourselves to be,.

how can you read all of the info on this forum regarding un scandal, alleged paedophilia, failed prophecies, u-turn on blood etc.

and not have your conscience affected before jehovah.

Some of us need to stay inside the WBTS, otherwise our families would shun us. I can't bear that at this time.

My relatives are among the nices people you'd want to meet and hang out with, but they utmost loyalty is with the WBTS.

So, I hang around here to interact with others that are in my same situation.
