  Appealing a DF decision

  by HereIgo in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i always found it interesting that one could appeal a disfellowshipping....if jehovah doesn't make mistakes, then there wouldnt be a need to "appeal" anything to begin with right?.

  It has been my experience and, also based on what I've heard, that appeals are easy to get but they always rubber stamp the original judgment.

  If a JW Came To Your Door How Would You Handle It?

  jehovah's witnesses have never come to my door but they have come to my girlfriends door.

  i have coached her as to what to say or ask but it appears that they always seem to come when she's not there.

  .....just curious would you get into it with a jehovah's witness at your door especially if it was someone you did not know?.

  saename,

  I just looked at your profile, minimus, and saw that you joined the forum 14 years ago. I guess you already know then what I said above... which makes my comment unnecessary
  

  Some things bear repeating after a few years.

  Minimus,

  After saying that I'm sure they will just go away
  

  But at least they will well remember what was said especially at the twilight of their life.

  I would tell them the following:

  "You know, even though the future will suffer from some pretty awful things NOTHING is going to happen in the way you've been predicting. Anyone can claim to know the future but you have had an abysmal track record of false prophecies such as saying that 1914 was going to be, not the beginning, but the actual end of the world on that date.

  "Whatever happens it will not go your way."

  LisaRose,
  

  I think it's possible Trump will start his own party.

  I don't think that Trump is the kind to start let alone run any organization - just look at the way he's handled his whole campaign. His is a personality cult.

  I'm 80% sure he will fizzle in the next year.

  Trump will have to get louder and more outrageous if he still wants to remain in the media's radar. Please don't ask how.

  A more subtle point. I saw some snow on the mountains in the background. I thought the water canopy, from before the flood, was supposed to be rebuilt. If it is, then the greenhouse effect that supposedly existed before the flood will prevent snow from occurring.

  I think the Catholic Church is more worried about the hemorrhaging of its members by the hundreds of thousands and even millions to charismatic religions in Southern and Central America.
