Being DF'd is actually pretty good.
I really enjoy my freedom. I don't have to answer to anyone anymore.
No more privileges, either.
No more wasted time chasing "everlasting life".
One of my favorites is no longer feeling guilty.
2 people were read out last week as disfellowshipped.
of course now the announcement is read "so and so is no longer one of jehovahs witnesses".
they read that statement twice, once for each of the names.

warning!
long post ahead!.
i didn't know what to expect but i was really excited to be invited to accompany my daughter and her closest friends to a large (300+) party held at a famous hot spot.
That sounds like a real blast!
now that district overseers have been deleted, now that bethelites are being devalued and increasingly dismissed, now that special pioneers are being deleted in u.s., and maybe elsewhere gradually.
who would have ever thought?.
yet, now what is the value to be a regular pioneer to the org?
growing up my parents would barricade our home off by parking vehicles bumper to bumper - you would have to crawl under the cars or over the bumpers to get to our door.
also, we would turn off all the lights and hide in the back room away from the street.. that was the norm for me.
isnt that insane?
We would put up a sign on the street and a sign on the door that said:
"No Halloween here"
Most would not make it to the door. The few that knocked, we ignored.

It's the "abyss" that Satan and the demons will be tossed into.
Keep an eye on this one!
i know we are all anonymous for our own personal reasons, so i understand if you would rather not say.
but if you don't mind sharing that would be cool.
i currently live in georgia, usa.
i wanna make a poll here.
how many years do you think the jdub cult will exist as is and what will happen to it?.
i say the growth stops this year and starts to decline.
All previous "big deals" did not have the power of the internet behind them and all the JWs "green lighted" to use the internet. ( at the meetings, even )
Curiosity killed the cat and all that.
I really need to place some JWFACTS signs here and there...
for all those who have recently escaped this evil cult i just want to send a message of hope.. i have just had my landlord around.
one of the first things the landlord said to me.
"in just a year i see such a big positive difference in you" .
Congrats on your success. Many of us are reporting similar results.
I've lost 75 pounds and have much better organized my home and belongings.
I have an endless line up of projects and interests as well.
It's amazing how much time we have when the end isn't coming tomorrow...
Life is better on the outside.
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!
my husband was recently subjected to an intervention by his parents.
i am apparently a danger to his spirituality.
after i stopped attending meetings and went apostate hubby decided to resign as a ms to spend more time with me.
So many of us envy you... In a good way!
Wonder if your JW reads here?
why do there have to be wars?
why is there so much hatred?.
the collective answer i came up with is natalisam, or maybe the correct word should be politics?
Root cause of war and violence?
Satan!
Ba dah bump, cshhh!!
Actually, it's common greed and desire for power, propped up by wealth. You really never see armies , countries or thugs running armed men that have no CASH.
