Preaching Doom and Gloom in October?
by Sassy inmy ex husband (who is dfd but not a professsed apostate) told me yesterday that in october there is going to be a big push for preaching doom in service.. like the last chance to get people in before the end.. .
has anyone else heard this?.
i assume either his brother who is a dub or his mother have passed this on to him, in order to scare him to come back quick before everyone dies.. .

Help Please!!!!
by sandy inmy niece announced to the entire family she is disfellowshipped and i got t cornered.. i was in the room when she told the family (dumb me being nosey) and my family started asking me questions about going back to the meetings.. i told them i do not believe in organized religion and some days i doubt the biblical existance of god.
i told them about the un scandal and they do not believe it.. they think it is a plot by satan somehow to mislead people away from the organization.
after being cornered by five of them i went into my shell and didn't defend my thoughts very well.
