  August KM--Could someone share with me.

  by anewlife in

  i understand the august km has a little part about how df'd ones should be treated.

  i'd like to read it.

  i've been df'd for 2+ years now and i heard through my sister that my mother is wanting to contact me, but she's having "trouble" with the decision.

  Maybe this will help. Both pages of the KM are in this thread.

  many of you have felt at the sharp end, quite particularly so, social exclusion.

  emotionally, how did it make you feel?

  It screwed me up for a while. I had been "friends" with some in my hall for most of my life and they were gone in an instant when I was DF'd, so for a long time, I avoided friends altogether and questioned my judgement. It's better now, but I still struggle with relationships and it takes me a long time to trust anyone. I've read many posts here that are similar.

  Is it really so? Is there an inner circle here?

  by Celtic in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  before some of you jump down my throat thinking i'm stirring muddied waters, i'm not, but, a question has been on my mind here more often than not, who exactly is the membership made up of here, within this community, of an inner circle so to speak?

  you scratch my back, i'll scratch yours etc pile of poo.. personally, i've had enough of clicky groups and cliches to last me a lifetime, so, who are these guys that try to keep others excluded from their small brained 'in club'?.

  Nicely said Incense_and_Peppermints, I agree with you 100%. Thank goodness we're free (or heading in that direction) of the need to seek approval, (Now by saying that, I'm not kissing your a$$ or anything okay)?

  if i was to meet some of you ladies for the first time, i might be tempted to buy you a bunch of flowers, what spray tickles your fancy the most?

  i know for englishmans missus, her ladyship, her bunch of flowers would include freshias.

  has anyone heard anything about the latest km?

  my uncle (on the fringes) told me the newest km said that even non-df'd folks are to be treated as disfellowshipped, if they had been inactive for a long time.

  since i haven't seen a km myself, i wondered if this was true?

  I would think there would be some legal issues if they put into print that totally shunning those who have not been expelled from the congregation is okey-dokey. However, when I was a witness, there were "un-written" standards that were insinuated from the platform. It's a little harder to pin those down. But I wouldnt be surprised if that happens in this issue.

  I was under the impression that inactive ones were also on the list... I guess my info was wrong, or there was more than what I read here. This doesn't seem new.
