  Another letter from the Disfellowshipped JW

  by reneeisorym in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  to those of you who followed the last post about the idiot who keeps e-mailing me -- he keeps sending me more letters even though i quit sending him letters.. .

  good morning renee: i expect you will be reading this early when you come to work.

  these are trumped up charges just like they did to jesus and the apostles by those who hate jehovah and his flock.

  The only circumstance I could see myself going back would be because of my son. He's eleven now and not yet baptized so I have time. Even then, I really can't see how I could look myself in the eye honestly and do it. Therefore, I say NO!

  THE BACK PEDDLING HAS ALREADY BEGUN......

  by Mary in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as i mentioned before in another thread, my dub aunt, along with several other witnesses, told me that they were specifically told that the governing body let it be known that tract work would trigger the beginning of the end by infuriating the other religions and somehow causing the governments to "turn on babylon the great".

  this was supposed to start before the end of this year.

  one thing i mentioned is that they were smart enough this time, not to put anything down in writing, but simply let it get around by "word of mouth".

  he said that they expect it to really divide people. For some it will open their eyes and for others they will reject it. Then we will be better able to discern who wants to hear more and who does not.

  Perhaps he (Losch) means it will divide JW's themselves to see who really is loyal (those who have no problem spreading this tract) and those who are actually apostates among them (those who have a problem with the tract). Sort of a way to shake things up among themselves...

  The term apostate is used freely on this forum, don't you find it offensive

  by avidbiblereader in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i find the term apostate used freely towards those who have left the org, by both witnesses hiding and also ex witnesses calling themselves that.

  don't you find that offensive.

  i have been out for over 6 years and the last thing i consider myself is an apostate.

  By taking ownership of the word "apostate" we neutralize it. Similar to "nigga" being used by african-americans.

  since 6 weeks i stopped going to the meetings.

  not that the meetings are not boring.... but i had some friends there, and have a lot more time on my hands.

  also i decided not to use the computer so much anymore because of rsi related problems.

  Go out and rent all the "R" rated movies you wanted to watch but weren't allowed to before. You have some catching up to do....

  Perhaps I am losing it faster than I thought or maybe I am giving the Wt too much credit...I dunno. Anyway, if you wouldn't mind sending any information on the topics I mentioned anything at all from the Wt Cd I would be grateful but I don't want to put you out. Thanks very much for your help!
