Victoria, Australia: Report on Oct. 11th hearing involving Steven Unthank
by AndersonsInfo invictoria, australia: report on oct. 11th hearing involving steven unthank.
(this report is from an anonymous xjw who attended the hearing.
i had no plans to turn up to the court hearing as an observer, as in my experience, it can take several hearings and a number of months before any court case gets rolling.

1 year since my last meeting!
by Alfred ini just realized that today marks my first year since attending a meeting at the kh... i really wanted to celebrate this day but it just creeped up and its kinda late now... i guess i'll celebrate tomorrow night instead.. but i wanted to log in to thank everyone who has helped me with their valuable insight and perspective... i came to this site with a typical judgemental jw mentality and now i can say i'm completely rid of all that... i now value everyone's opinions and talk more freely with people i used to consider "worldly"... what a completely freeing experience!.
the hardest part of my exit from the cult was convincing my wife... that took about 6 months and i nearly gave up... thank god she eventually woke up.. also, in the past year i've read.... gentile times reconsideredcombatting mind controlcrisis of conscience*in search of christian freedomapocalypse delayed*3 books out of the 7 "studies in the scriptures"5 rutherford books*i met 2 of the people mentioned in crisis of conscience and apocalypse delayed and had dinner with them recently... hoping to build that relationship further.. i've also sent about 26 emails to several elders on a variety of subjects and 6 letters to the brooklyn and i'm still not da's or df'd!
none of these emails or letters changed anything but it helped me purge.... i could go on and on but it's the same story you've probably read a thousand times already.. anyway, if it wasn't for all the support and encouragement i received on this site (as well as randy's site and barbara's site), i wouldn't be where i am today.. so a big thank you to you all!!!.

Amazing, this is the first time that i have looked to see when the memorial was..... The dubz here locally have been off their nuts door knocking and gathering in large crowds on the street corners llooking all important!
In Australia we say they are running around like blue arsed flies!
What a waste

Are You Going To the Memorial?
by headisspinning ini can't see myself not attending.
i would feel horrible not to go.
i don't know where i'm going to land and if i had to look back and think i didn't go... well, i would feel awful..

I was Dubsnubbed this past week.
by I quit! injust this past week i went to see a jbub relative that was in the hospital.
there was an elder there from her hall.
he was probably there for support but also to make sure no blood was used.

Happened to me today too..... must be catchy! This dub guy walked past and I went up to say hello and he completely ignored me, I said Hi again and he just kept looking at some risque birthday cards.
I said: "I didn't know you had gone deaf!" still no reply, just kept looking at the cards. So i just stood nice and close and didn't say anymore, just stood there. The next thing he tried to get away. He had to push past and I stood my ground, but he couldn't even say "excuse me" he just shoved past and fled the store!
How weird!

could i walk into a K/Hall and get literature?
by Aussie Oz injust wondering!.
i know many would say ''why the hell would you do that?".
just wondering if i could actually get hard copies of some stuff for a 'donation' and not have to hunt it down.... mind you, i'd have a hard time making myself look conservative!.

Hey Oz, Just ask the elders at your last cong, they are supposed to oblige...... I grabbed a heap of old books out of the library spare supply before I handed my keys back. What else are you after? pm me

Favorite quote from 2011 School for Ministerial Servants
by iamwhoiam in"let's see a show of hands of those who know that the end is very close (everyone raises thier hands while looking around at each other).
excellent!...we know this because we have a whole-hearted faith in the faithful and discreet slave don't we?".
no explanation needed .

These "experiences" are always changed a bit so as to have greater impact... seen it plenty of times at rehersals for circuit and district assemblies. The c/o and d/o want it to sound over the top so they suggest "enhancements" not lying, but stretching it a bit...

As for the current Governing Body members, they are "fakes."
by possible-san inwell, .... although i have stated in this forum several times, and probably also other people stated about it, i would like to say again now.. as for the current governing body members, they are the "fake anointed.".
http://corior.blogspot.com/2006/02/notes-on-governing-body-of-jehovahs.html.
the greatest tragedy of today's jehovah's witnesses is that fakes/liars are guiding the organization.. people who have served jehovah for years should remember the "basic doctrine.".

Hi possible-san
Point taken. I am glad that you see it for what it is. Yes, I was there with you believing, promoting, defending, justifying... then it all came tumbling down. The most recent crop of GB would have to be a joke. They were too young in the borg R&F mind to be up there with the old originals, but what else can they do? They have to keep it going, move the goal posts and keep people sucked in as much as possible.
Good post/topic
