i'm sorry if this comes across as rude or mean, but i'm sorry - not sorry!
there is a woman that was in my congregation for years.
she was dating a 'worldly' man at the time and ended up df'd.
Wow...
yep, I know a sister who was DF at least three times for running off with different men. And the men she ran off with (destroying their families in the process) all came to meetings with her as a DF person!
She even brought one to baptism!
The arrogance of ones who have no right to be "spiritual preachers" to others is mind blowing!
genuine picture from a convention in holland.

Just joking by the way @anders...😉

I know who you are now @anders.....
just sitting through this week's wt study and just spent 5 minutes listening to multiple answers where people are convinced that jehovah made humans from clay, literally forming adam like a sculpture then breathing life into him.. it's embarrassing to think i basically thought the same....
Yes, and by using a rib from a man, a lesser being known as woman was made...as a subservient or submissive being ....
hey, this thread is nothing new so i don't wanna get too personal but i'm happy to announce that i am apart of the 33% club!!
i sent in my da letter this past wednesday (again actually, i sent it in the week before but i got hit with the old 'return to sender') and i sent the letter up to the hq instead.
i did courteously mark it as re: disassociation for whatever lackey got it, but i did request in the letter not be contacted.
Yes, remember that you do NOT need to be on the defensive. Do not allow the FOG (Fear, obligation guilt) to overcome you.
Be proud of your decision.
And play the "Less is More" strategy. The Less you say, the more effective it is.
Remind them of "appropriate boundaries" in a calm and dignified way.
Keep your head up!
at the 2016 olympic games in rio de janeiro, brazil, there are reportedly 62 carts with over a thousand brothers/sisters taking shifts and <ehem>working</ehem> the proximity in rio de janeiro from 8 in the morning till 11 at night (8:00 to 23:00), august 5th-21st.. .
such an "olympic" effort!.
There will no doubt be some embellished "experience" used at conventions about some disillusioned athlete that took literature "and is now learning the truth" as a result of this campaign.....
hello, sorry for the multiple posts, but this has also been a question of mine to ask.. .
does the wts actually destroy your files if you request them to after you get df'd?
i honestly do not believe so, yet i feel as if you cannot call them on their bs if you do.
I still have a key to that secret filing cabinet in my old hall!
I could open it anytime I like....

Well done.
If you wish to avoid face to face contact, and want to ensure nothing is misunderstood, simply state that you "would like an acknowledgment in Writing please"
in a city of a million people on the jw carts today all five of them they were trying to give away teaching books that were 10 years old .
Oh dear! Hand them some new batteries, because their flashlights are giving out "old light" and need to be updated!😉
i really fail to see how much actual "witnessing" is occurring with the trolley carts.publishers, usually pioneers, just stand or sit there not engaging anyone and count their time.. the only thing i notice that it's accomplishing is brand exposure for jw.0rg so the public is exposed to the logo and literature/poster card headlines.. take for example this "evening" witnessing by a pioneer elder while on summer holiday/vacation.. .
is this not a wth kinda moment when you consider the years of slaving, knocking on doors, business territory and bible studies we had to keep performing so we weren't branded a "weak" publisher?.
Yep...the stoopidity of the org and its members is increasing on a daily basis!
