Of course we don't have capital punishment in the UK. The reason being that the moment you give a country the power to execute it's own citizens it's inevitable that the penal system and pretty much everything else will eventually become draconian.

As A Former JW Are You Patriotic At All?
by minimus injehovah’s witnesses were drilled with the idea that all governments are from satan and that we should have nothing to do with anything involving support of the government, voting, or political talk for one party or another.. now that you are out, is patriotism important to you?
is voting important to you?
are you supportive of your country?.

I don't buy into the "being proud to be British, American, Australian..whatever. IMHO, that's just as daft as being proud to be gay or white or black. If you're going to be proud of anything it has to be as a result of some sort of achievement. Not just an accident of birth.

Some folk confuse patriotism with Nationalism. Patriotism, as we all know, is about having a special regard for our country and countrymen, our very extended family. It's innate.

Getting disfellowshipped to marry and return
by confused ini was just wondering if there is any official rules on dealing with this.
a sister in the congregation is planning to divorce her husband who is also a witness so she can marry a different brother in the same hall!
yes this is a huge scandal!

This sort of stuff is always going to happen. Being brought up in a high control group such as the JW religion, many folk get married way too soon just so that they can enjoy their nookies ASAP. Inevitably, once the novelty has worn off, they become vulnerable to thinking "Is this really the one and only person that I'm ever going to have sex with?"
Maybe if they'd played the field a bit, like most developing young people do, the curiosity and vulnerability associated with extra-marital affairs wouldn't be nearly so appealing.

This happened in the UK some years ago. The fella was a District overseer - I believe his name was Turnbull - and he and his lady love admitted to the DF'ing committee that they knew they'd be DF'd but planned to bide their time, get divorced and then married, then apply for reinstatement.
HO at Mill Hill were obviously involved and their edict to the JC was to stipulate that they would have to wait for 10 years before they could apply for re-admission.

Patriotism is a normal human emotion. It's a built in loyalty to what is actually our very extended family. Not to be confused with Nationalism.

Yes, me. I dropped out of school at age 15. My dad said there was no point on my staying on at school seeing as how armageddon was just around the corner. Bro Darnell from Feltham was a foreman in the welding section of Elliott Business Machines and he'd put my name forward to his bosses as a good honest hard working Christian lad.
I went along with it quite willingly.
