so i just saw on fb a letter going out to jw's in southern california to keep quiet if they get any food donations from the elders.
the jw's aren't giving this food out of the kindness of their hearts, they are getting it from the government and pretending they are doing it themselves.
gah!

The letter said something about how they don't want attention brought to themselves. Yeah because they are giving food donations under false pretenses.
does someone have a list of the scriptures the jw's use to justify shunning and disfellowshipping?
i know there are only a few..
As I thought there's basically only one that they base their favorite doctrine on. My cousin can't remember the slogan of "stay alive till 75" but will never let me forget that I'm disfellowshipped
Not feeling the love!

as much as i enjoy you and pete's company, you also know our understanding of how much we want you to be reunited with jehovah and his people.. .
we did not set the standards for what jehovah says about our associations with those who choose to not serve him.
so we will always be there for you and pete, but it is in your hands as to how we can enjoy your friendship.. .

Yeah the double speak is just amazing! And the fact that he says that "shunning" isn't their word is really something too. So that means the word doesn't exist? These are people that just spent a month in Israel preaching to who? I don't know. Where the great are needed so they go.

WOW the double speak is strong with one. I love the fact that "shunning" is not their word so they don't do it. Nice to rewrite the dictionary and everything else. This cousin however has a normal relationship with his sister who was a JW but has been "inactive" for 50 years, celebrates all the worldly holidays etc. but somehow it's totally okay for him to have association with her. Hmmmm
my uber cousin and wife are going back to wallkill this weekend for the annual meeting since they have a daughter and son in law in the inner sanctum so they are always invited.
cousin said it was going to be broadcast from patterson to wallkill.
anyone hear anything else about subject matter etc?.
No they are not. And yes I'm sure they will just say they are vacationing there or some shit. I can't imagine spending a month there being a JW. They have applied to go to Israel many times before for international conventions but didn't get chosen but I guess this time they got approved.

Ahh I think you are correct! Gilead Graduation now rings a bell. After that my cousins are going to Israel for a month to do missionary work. Wonder how that will all go? I can just see them walking around in their suits and dresses not fitting in at all.

Oh yes that's my cousin and his wife for sure! Soooo important and their daughter and son in law get to travel all over supervising building projects and stuff like that from the inner circle. Mostly in Africa but they haven't been there lately. I saw them briefly last weekend at a non witness family event and said they weren't traveling as much which made me wonder too.
