If clothing companies are in the crosshairs of the GB, then what about this one?
Surely the GB think they have the monopoly on the term OBEY

JWs Ban TRUE RELIGION!
by Cold Steel inthe governing body of jehovah's witnesses, known for its aggressive worldwide proselytizing efforts, stunned many of its 12-million members by declaring war this week on a los angeles denim and designer jeans organization that goes by the name “true religion.”.
“as members of jehovah's one true religious faith we have no business of associating with any organization that claims to be jehovah's true religion!” a letter from the gb states.
it was dated july 20.. in its opening salvo, the seven-member gb directed believers to not “shop at, buy, nor even wear” true religion's products.

Yes, it really is a sad reflection on Jehovah and Jesus, if their choice of co rulers is these turkeys!
Perhaps J and J are just having a laugh seeing how many witnesses will blindly follow the rantings of these crazy fools?

"You're going to die in Armageddon"
by Jules Saturn ini'm sure i am not the only one to have heard this come out of the mouths of my loved ones.
it's a very painful thing to hear, especially when it comes from the people like your own parents/family.
even after i've been told that, they would say "we'll just continue life without you.

Two thoughts come to mind.
1) They are using the fear of being killed at the big A just as Christendom does with the Hellfire doctrine
2) Just politely remind them that the one thing EVERY HUMAN who has ever lived has in common is: They all die. Why would the present JWs be any different?

To Fade or Disassociate

i have a grandfather who faded several decades ago.

Fade or Disassociate?
The results are often the same anyway nowadays. You will be treated like an outcast as the gossip and rumour mill goes into overdrive.
Eventually, all your "friends" will abandon you...
