after the sunday meeting an over zealous young elder encourages the cong.
with a 2 hour clips from jw.org!
one video showed a young sister battling loneliness not able to find a mate in her hall or area.
They should just make a video titled, "Don't enjoy your life." That's all this cult does is discourage anything that makes you happy...no kids...no college...no dating...don't buy a home...don't have a good job...don't better yourself...don't...don't...don't!
Glad to be free and enjoying life with NO judgement!
watchtower life story of karl klien governing body was very sad.
clearly shows the pressure to do more.
baptized at 12 years old he became a teenage elder.
"It basically tells us all 3 of our leaders Rutherford Franz and Knorr were pushy insensitive bully bastards."
Nothing new and nothing has changed. They are all bullies. The majority of the Co's and Elders are bullies. They learned from THE BEST. The brothers who have some compassion are fewer and fewer. It is sad!
One of the MANY reasons we are GONE FOR GOOD! LACK OF LOVE IS FRONT AND CENTER!
according to the italian website: proclamatori consapevoli (a independent website from jw's, proposing new reforms to the gb ), a trusted member, told that next year in 2016, the bethel in rome, will organize a pioneer school, for bethelites, who are asked to leave bethel, so that they could be equipped for their new assignments as regular pioneers in territory, they will be assigned.. .
if you choose, for the pioneer service, when asked to leave, then they are asked to assist at that pioneer school... personal note: i would make a good smile, and tell them on a diplomatic way like they did, with the bethelites they dumped), that i have other plans at this point of my life, and then leave, without regrets...
(2. after offering prayer without the disfellow-shipped person present, invite him into the room.
) i needed answers to as why the elders would not pray when they talked to me in the room.
3 letters have been sent to get reinstated and all denied and forgotten!
So sorry to hear you have been hurt. It's tough being kicked to the curb. I had it done by one of my closest family members. It sucks.
You have received some great advise on here. It's an eye opening experience to realize there is NO holy spirit and these guys just want power over you. It's a Mother may I game, getting reinstated. We had a family member DF'd for 2 years and she practically had to grovel to get reinstated.
Keep reading COC and learning what is behind the ugly curtain. This has been a great site for me. I don't feel all alone and it reassures me that I am not the only one feeling the way I do.
Keep us posted.
homecoming.
my good friend bob and i usually try to get together on friday to listen to live music someplace and decompress from the week's pressures.
robby knew betty back in high school.
hi guys - new poster here.
i was brought up a jw in the uk and stopped going not long after i was married.
that was 20 years ago so i'm not really up to date with the current doctrinal flip flops or the new youtube obsessed gb.. came across this site while googling the name of a local elder who's just been convicted of possesion of a pc full of unpleasant pics of kids.. so, my question.
one of the businesses i cover is owned by jws and the father and 2 sons knew me as an active brother until 3 years ago when i told one of them i no longer attend the meeting.
today the father and one of the sons asked me if i was still inactive.
i told them it has been more than 5 years since i last been at a meeting.

i've been out a while and have only put in a rare appearance at a memorial or brief visit at a convention/assembly to keep people off my back, so i haven't kept up on the songbook.
but one thing i've noticed that the org.
has been doing that they never did when i was in is all these "supplemental songs" that keep appearing.
