  In addition to Rampo and Warwick, what other sites and farms are Watchtower still holding as headquarters properties in the northeast? Do they still hold the Florida airport property?

  probably but they’ve sent him back pretty darn quick!

  i have from a very reliable source that he attends one of the poughkeepsie ny congregations.

  i think there are 5 congregations there might be worth paying a visit if anyone lives near there..

  If he is attending meetings via zoom, perhaps someone can keep an eye on the local bottle shops.

  What is the last "official" view on ex-jws formerly known as "inactive"? Is it possible now to have been announced from the platform as "no longer a jw" (disassociated) and not know it? (no letter or call).

  someone sent me a link to the anoninsurrection youtube page.

  i found eleven videos documenting an interview with the legal advisor for the former menlo park kingdom hall elders.

  you can find them here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=plszmu_qv0dgtco2wl5bnjdx12ny2_cmoo .. i've also published the entire set of eleven along with my comments on ex-jw.com.

  Some of the case files still show on Google https://casetext.com/case/cobb-v-brede-6

  I was googling the plaintiffs tonight and came across the reason one of the Elders who were disfellowshipped could no longer be found.

  WALTER ARLEN ST. CLAIR, the simple and sincere Elder who dared to question turning over the kingdom hall and congregation funds to Watchtower Corp.(and was disfellowshiped as a result), slipped from a roof while washing skylights at the age of 75, hit a walkway, and died.

  "At 4:41 p.m. on November 2, 2020, Employee #1(Arlen) was packing up his gear and getting ready to depart the job site. The employee was an independent contractor hired by the homeowner to clean exterior skylights. The skylights were located on a slightly pitched wood shingle roof that had a height of nine feet from the eaves. The employee was working alone. A neighbor saw the employee lying unconscious on a walkway. The employee was located ten feet from the leading edge of the roof and not near his ladder. The employee was killed by blunt force trauma due to falling from the roof." -OSHA report. :( A sad ending for a sincere follower of Watchtower. No Obit.

  Would I be disfellowshiped for this?

  by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

  1. watchtower

  if a publisher openly told the elders that they thought the gb were wrong about some or a lot of things, but said they will not share these thoughts with anyone else then would this be a case of disassociation disgfellowship?.

  my guess is lots of elders meetings and shepherding calls to try to get you to say something they could use against you.. but what would be the sin in which you are not repented?.

  the only reason to be dissed is non repentance?.

  In the last few years, in the US, some have been disfellowshipped in absentia. No meeting.

  Apostasy. "Walking disorderly" . "causing divisions". "Jezebel influence"

  If 2-3 Elders can ask you "the loyalty questions" in a roundabout way on the phone...even one on the line with a speakerphone (others listening in... or recorder), that is sufficient.

  Simply keep your mouth shut...smile... and change the subject. Caller ID, and an answering machine works wonders.

  i have a friend who is a witness, and i wanted to send them a message on tuesday, but i'm not entirely sure what to say.

  "happy memorial" doesn't seem quite right.

  what are some appropriate greetings to send on the day of the memorial of jesus christ?.

  Tony Morris was an orderly in a hospital in Vietnam, not a combat medic. PTSD would be stolen valor on his part.

  He is a garden-variety drunk and pompous ass.

  Once again this was a tragic event. However, I am interested in how this affects the thinking process of the rank-and-file JW. For decades JWs read and heard how the "Angels protect JWs in service and at meetings". Obviously, when the GB canceled all meetings in person for 2 years they didn't believe Jehovah could stop a virus. (Our local Pentecostal Churches kept meeting in person believing god would protect them from snakebites, poison, or COVID).

  How has this affected any PIMI JWs you know?
