Help needed: Written material regarding shunning of DF'd and DA'd individuals
by EdenOne ini would like this to become a permanent thread, because i think there are grounds - at least in europe - to take this matter up to the european court of human rights.
not sure we'll ever get there, but one must start somewhere.
objective: force, by legal means, the watchtower society and the jehovah's witnesses to stop the practice of shunning ex-jehovah's witnesses, on grounds that it constitutes a violation of human rights.. what is needed: all written material ever published by the watchtower society, especially since 1940's, concerning the practice of shunning.

Hi EdenOne, me and my significant other are caught up in a messed up disfellowshipping situation ourselves. We haven't been disfellowshipped yet, but the nature of the situation means it is an eventuality likely to happen this year. We are deeply hurt by the controlling and unloving stance the organisation takes, despite even our elders showing sympathy for the problem, even they openly admit their hands are tied (we are lucky to have such considerate elders). We feel the grounds for the way we are being treated is both wrong and immoral. Such control over peoples lives as used by the emotional blackmailing nature of disfellowshipping should not happen. We would love to help, as we came to the same conclusion (before finding this thread) that it is against human rights for this to be happening.
