  Very interesting conversation with your Mom. I think you did a very good job with being intellectual with your comparisons.

  Maybe deep down...she knows you are right.

  Like in my newest thread..visiting my in-laws. By all means they would be df'd for their liberalism..they are just in their mid 70's and would have NO friends if they just "quit". Instead they do their own thing and so far..........no problems for them...but what "If" they started getting ostrasized for their liberalism???

  Remains to be seen.

  Hello, I'm new here

  i left the jw's in 1990 and officially left or at least decided never to return again in 1993. i announced that i'd rather die in armageddon than live with these people.

  they don't want to speak to me much anymore.. but i'm concerned because i have a 4 yr old child and i don't want to attend any church.

  nothing against those who do.. but should i go for my child even though i will stare into outerspace until its over or is this a worse example than not attending at all?.

  Welcome

  IMHO it is much better to show your daughter real love and kindness in action then to go to any church. Actions do speak louder then words!

  1 Cor 13:5 ..."It does not keep account of the injury".

  JW's don't follow this scripture at all because they keep account of the injury by df'ing and pr'ing people in public. Those offenses are never forgotten, they are written down on your publisher's card for any elder to read and for new elders to read when you relocate.

  i didn't go into work tonight.

  my allergies are kicking my butt.

  i snort like a pig; blow my nose, frequently; have post nasal drip; sneeze like a hyenna; have gunk in my eyes; and sleep poorly.

  I was kinda down and out today....

  by IronClaw in

  2. friends

  so i went for a ride and stopped by this scenic overlook not to far from my house.

  i sat on the bench there just looking at the mohawk valley at its best.

  i started thinking what a waste life is when you don't have anyone to share beautiful moments like this with.

  Great song...........

  I have been thru the down and out's before.......

  I was married to my first husband, he was a JW...that cheated right an left on me...(with many women and one of them my best JW girlfriend)

  he left me........

  Then I was blessed to meet husband #2....although a JW, his first wife left him .........we got married.

  but a twist......

  we are both fading as of 3 years now.

  So, take heart.........you can find a soulmate.........like Flyinghigh said.........

  take care,

  Min:

  Maybe I am the exception: My prayers were answered when I prayed to Jehovah. I guess I was the exceptional JW.. I prayed to get a study........I got one.

  When my stupid JW husband left me 1.5 years later (after much crying and anorexia)............I said final a prayer: I am NOT making finding a husband a goal UNLESS it is your goal, bring him to me. A week after a d.convention and guess what?

  A week later he came...from another country.to where I work.........so bizarre.

  I believe in the power of prayer and being a good person.....

  Letting go...a letter to my brother

  by Brigid in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  dear friends and fellow sojourners,.

  as i posted sometime back, i have been grappling with my last fear from the wtbts--that is, saying good-bye to my mother and brother who are still in the organization by revealing that not only have i left but am now what they consider an apostate.

  it has come to me, that i must do this to be finally free of the last vestiges of "hold" that the organization still has on me.

  I have to ask you a question. Are you already df'd?

  The reason I am asking is that when something is in written word, they can take it to the elders and action can be taken. IF you send this letter to your brother, and he is an active JW, his conscience will most likely make him turn that letter in to the elders.

  Just a thought. If that doesn't matter, then a letter is always an easier way to say things.

  I wish the best for you.
