so i sent a letter outlining the scriptures that support shunning versus the 3 times as many that support not shunning.
this is the below response that i received.
i will be announced tomorrow night and wanted them to know since that is the fair and adult thing to do.
The next Regional convention will be titled..."Love never fails, until you decide to leave."
These stories are heart breaking. It amazes me how many people are leaving the cult. WT is really stressing the shunning. Worried much WT? Gotta shut up the "apostates", they are waking people up. Keep up the good work!
i watched this convention video and do not recognize this religion any longer.
there are attendants singing and dancing in grass fields.
later, you see sisters holding up this silly sign that makes me laugh.
Either on here or another forum, I read someone said it looked like a "carnival." What a perfect way to describe the scenes shown.
I'm all for having fun but we were raised in a era where it was pounded into us that everything was done "with decency and by arrangement." We were not allowed to play a "worldy" song at our wedding. We were not allowed to dance and sing at the KH or assembly hall. It is so weird to see all this entertainment @ these events. It's kind of like pulling up to a local assembly hall and seeing the blood drive bus/mobile there. WTF? The organization is not the same one we were raised in.

Fantastic! Thank you for sharing!
is there anything that will make that loyal witness ever see the light??
you know, that well respected elder, pioneer, or witness who has been in the “truth “ for decades..
When THEY get screwed by Watchtower! It usually takes that for them to start doubting! Although, we have seen some get screwed and they stay in. Go figure!!
today is 4th of july in my part of the world- the us- and i was reflecting how we were strongly encouraged when we were still in to go out in the ministry on holidays.
i just mentioned this memory to my husband and we reflected on how cult like this was.
anyone else have thoughts on this?
My Elder father NEVER went out in serve us on holidays. He always thought it was disrespectful. If he was assigned to lead the group, he would do so and then go home. He was very vocal to the ones who met in the group that he did not go out on holidays. He was one of the last decent Elders.
the october 2019 study edition, speaking of the last days after the governments destroy all religion except jws:.
at some point, the people whose re-ligions were destroyed may resent thefact that jehovah’s witnesses keep prac-ticing their religion.
we can only imag-ine the uproar that this might create, in-cluding on social media.

this last tuesday was one of the most stressful and sad days of our life when we had our lab morgan put to sleep.
she was so sick and out of it we just had to do it.
when i called the spca on monday to make a appointment to have her put to sleep i felt like i betrayed her.
I am so sorry, I cried reading your post. Losing an animal is loosing a family member. They are part of your family, they are your family. Morgan will live on in your heart forever.
WT does not have a clue about life or love. They are a heartless cult.
Our hearts go out to you and your family!
Rest in peace sweet Morgan.
study watchtower october 2019, page 12, par.
17 - "a true christian must make sure that his secular employment has nothing to do with babylon the great.
for example, he would not be an employee of a church.
So a JW can not make money to feed his family if his work is inside a church BUT WT can sell a Kingdom Hall to a church? Hypocrisy much?
WT...the "do as I say, not as I do" organization (I mean cult).
