emeth:
If a person is Df'd normal family affections and dealings continue.
No, emeth. You know, or reasonably should know, that that 'rule' only applies for disfellowshipped family members, such as a child, parent or spouse, still living in the family home. As indicated in this deplorable 'advice' to JWs:
*** w88 4/15 p. 28 pars. 13-14 Discipline That Can Yield Peaceable Fruit ***
13 Cutting off from the Christian congregation does not involve immediate death, so family ties continue. Thus, a man who is disfellowshipped or who disassociates himself may still live at home with his Christian wife and faithful children. Respect for God’s judgments and the congregation’s action will move the wife and children to recognize that by his course, he altered the spiritual bond that existed between them. Yet, since his being disfellowshipped does not end their blood ties or marriage relationship, normal family affections and dealings can continue.
14 The situation is different if the disfellowshipped or disassociated one is a relative living outside the immediate family circle and home. It might be possible to have almost no contact at all with the relative.
We all know that 'normal family affections and dealings' do not 'continue' toward former-JW relatives and family members outside the home. So answer the question honestly.
(But thanks for demonstrating the typical JW 'group-think' by using the exact same buzzwords - "normal family affections and dealings continue" - that the JW literature uses.)
