How did you tell your spouse you want out of the JW religion?
by leaving_quietly inwhat did you imagine would happen?
did they react the way you expected?
how did you bring it up?.

Apognophos - thanks for writing what you wrote, it really hit me hard. I'm there, I feel weak and stupid and cowardly at times, but it's geezers like you, and snare, that help me a LOT, and I'm sure I speak for countless others that read these posts too, perhaps even lurkers. Bu2b, you're not alone dude, we're here with you. Albeit parousaically.

Letter From WTBTS Evidence of Mind Control Tactics
by Corvin inthe following is taken from ray franz's book, crisis of conscience, pages 341-344. this letter, sent out to all traveling representatives, circuit overseers, by the service department of the international headquarters, shows the society's demand for comformity no matter the cost to the rank and file.
jw lurkers: please read carefully.
the portion of the letter in blue is of particular interest, and franz's comments nails the governing body's intent.. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

That's a great quote sd-7, nicely done. Does anyone know if this has ever been updated or rescinded? I quoted it a while back, thinking it was an elders letter, not remembering that it was a CO letter, so obviously I nor any of my brothers would officially know about the policy. They denied it was a policy (how would they know) so I just wondered if it has ever been updated?

Just marking this thread to remind me of it later.. Interesting comparison between avoiding a direct command to save a life (memorial) and obeying a direct command whether or not lives are lost.. (blood). What was it Jesus said, I want mercy not sacrifice? Or something..
