hello, i am writing because i was disfellowshipped a week and a half ago.
i have not been to the meeting in over two and a half years.
you would think they would leave me alone.
MZIndependent,
Looks like you're in a pickle. But sueing the society will get you no where, but broke fast. I hope you can work it out to let it just go. In my honest opinion, you're better off where you are at now. Outside the organization, and total freedom.

20 years ago today, you said "i do".
20 years later, i say "i do love you forever".
it's been a wonderful journey, and i think we are just getting started.
Happy anniversary you two
it's amazing that people think when they are hurting or angry, that they can say anything they want.
and then the next day or week, they can say to you: oh i was just mad.
i was just venting.
That's very true Simplesally. Often people say things like that because they could be insecure about themselves. And in saying cruel things to others, they want to elevate themselves above you, by walking on your feelings.
It's sad but true. If only most were humble enough to make amends and apologize, and not repeat the same mistake. Then perhaps we could have some respect for them.

according to the dubs, and other faiths, adam was created with no defects of any kind.
he was created with no sin.
then adam sinned.
The 'one' thing that changed; It seems like we have a lot of arguments between posters.
sometimes when i log on to jwd i go directly to "jokes and humor" because i know that there will be something there that will crack me up.
i love to laugh and i think humor is great therapy especially when alot of us have been through so much.
its great that we can make fun of ourselves and can find the humour in many of our experiences.
Too bad Doodle_V aint funny

Welcome to the board.
I find it hard to undestand why you were disfellowshipped. We're you given any warnings? Did they invite you the committee? What was the 'charge' they df'd you with? Did you receive a certified letter?
You have a right to appeal the decision within one week of your notice of disfellowshipping. After that you have no options with appeals. You can go to the body that disfellowshipped you, and ask for a meeting. Inquire about the reason for the procedures, as well as the 'charge'. There is not much you can do about it, except to ask for reinstatement. Provided this is what you want to do.
