  A Letter from A Witness

  by cruzanheart in

  one of my witness friends in england told a friend of hers out in service about how i'm not going to meetings anymore, what a shame, etc., etc., so this well-meaning little person decided she wanted to write me a letter.

  i asked why, and she told me the story of this young man.

  remember how i was able to leave the matter of my husband?s relationship with jehovah in his hands?

  Awesome letter!!!! I hope it gives her something to think about it and she doesn't just expunge the letter from her mind as "apostacy."

  Unfortunately this is not exclusive to JW's...custody battles are a huge part of seperations and divorce. With out more details its hard to understand if there is a valid reason why her children are kept from her.

  here is an im conversation i had: <a href="http://www.umit.maine.edu/~jessie.lacey/youresleeping23.txt">clickity</a>.

  possibly the weirdest conversation i have had as her brain is totally flooded with hyper-doctrine and there is no room for anything else.

  i tried to be real nice as i have a feeling of who that was.

  Wow! A JW and conspiracy theorist! Poor guy sounds like a nut job...but then again it's easy to sound like a nut job through IM. At least he is willing to talk to an ex-JW...

  Rutherford's wife, why the info blackout?

  by VM44 in

  rutherford ruled the watchtower organization from 1916 to 1942, traveled extensively, had several residences, most notably, beth sarim.

  but absent always was his wife, mary, not to mention his son, malcolm as well.. ok, rutherford was so well known, why did no one inquire about his son and wife?.

  when rutherford resided at beth sarim in san diego, why was his wife not there with him?

  VM44 -

  Later, Rutherford filled in for a judge total of four (4) days. Some days he filled in there wasn't even any cases. From that little experience he took on the title "Judge" which he used the rest of his life. (Does the word "Pompose" come to mind?)

  Can you say where you got this information from? I would love to be able to show this to JW's...but as we all know, anything posted on a JW apostate board is all lies...

  Question... Do JWs shun Family?

  by Sassy in

  i had a disagreement with xq in chat today, because he was trying to say that jws for the most part disobey the wts and still treat family like family even if they are dfd or quit being witnesses.. i don't feel that is true.

  i think that the majority of us on here who no longer are jws have family members who no longer have anything to do with us and shun us.... so i said it would be interesting to take a poll and see how many here are treated just like all the rest of your 'loving family' who is a jw still.......are you treated the same?.

  does family shun you for being df'd, da'd or no longer participating?or do they hide and talk to you but only when other active jws can't see?

I am not DFed or DAed, just inactive. My family still associates with me. BUT, my sibling is DFed and was shunned by all of us (including me) at first. My parents have let up since then and now do things with her, even in public.
