  wow, thank you all so much for the welcome.. .

  i will tell you a little about myself and my past.. as much as i can for now anyway.. one of the most scarey parts of joining a group is i am afraid to put my name on here.. will that mean i will get a visit from the elders if i do?

  i think they put the fear in me :).. .

  "out there"....a SCARY place to be!!!

  by chipster in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  wow.....thanks for the warm welcome.... i was just thinking what an interesting journey that it's been since june of last year, when i was dfd for the second time.. some of you wanted to hear my "story"...well, was raised in the truth...elder, pioneer (wanted those special blessings, ya know) cir ass.

  parts, the whole thing... left my wife of 27 years, and made the long trek back to reinstatement after 18 months of humiliating abuse by the most dysfunctional group of "spiritual men" (yeah, right) that i have ever seen.

  finally came back, crawling on my knees(i was "humbled", don't you know)...well, without getting into details, "sinned" then "confessed" and was promptly dfd again.... the scariest part at first, of being dfd, was "being out there" without jehovah's protection....all alone...no one to support me in my spiritual recovery....subject to demonic attack.....jehovah withholding his protection and blessings.....sheeeesh, that's enogh to scare the hell out of anyone!!!

  JW's -tree huggers worst enemy

  by TR in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  much of the work i do is at vacant, repossessed, and abandoned houses.

  almost without exception, i find wt literature that was "placed" there.

  what a disingenuous way for a jw to get rid of wt rags.

  Blood fraction transfusions

  by somebody in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  good morning all ( good afternoon/evening for others ),.

  i've kept up on the topic of blood transfusions and the "fractions" of blood that are acceptable ( according to god=f&ds ).

  i've read up on bloodless surgery too.

  Question about disfellowshipping

  by MoodyBlue in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have a question.... if the elders "catch wind" of something that could be a df'ing offense, and they ask for a judicial, if you don't show up or refuse to talk to them, can they disfellowship u in absence??

  if they can, is there any legal action that can be taken against it?.

  i've been threatened by my jw husband (we are separated) because i've met someone else...he is threatening to tell the elders i'm dating someone else ( though as of yet, no "fornication" has occured and it's long distance) if i don't write a letter of disassociation.

  i'm so sorry you have found yourself in this rough spot. as for your ex pressing so hard ...maybe HE is the one trying to cover his tracks. he may not really be all that concerned about bringing reproach on the org. i have found from past experience that the one holloring for "jw justice" or that infamous da letter...he has plans of his own...i'll just betcha!!
  the best thing to do is walk away with your head held high.....go on with your life and be the best you can be.
  the shunning is a bunch of bunk fer sure( i am a current shunee),
  so just go for it and live your life..your life does not depend on the org or elders or any one...only you and the ones you choose to have in your life
  all of the best sistah mb....

  Fred,the Preaching Work,+the WTS 'batting slump'

  by ISP in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the preaching work ,fred and the wts 'batting slump'.

  in a thread below, fred, in a quite daniellesque manner, sought to detract from ray franz's credibility because ray did not promote the wts' preaching activity.. firstly i have to say that fred is not in the easiest position.

  he is a wts apologist of sorts and whereas he might have some support on some other boards like great crowd or wol where his non-sequitors would go quite undetected, he finds it hard going here.

  our house is marked, nobody ever "calls" on us. must be cuz about 3 years ago a car group of sisters pulled up and were "preachin" to my hubby. i was coming up the stairs, so they were TRAPPED!! i listened for a couple of minutes, and when they turned to say something to me, i told them( in my most loving and friendly tone) that i knew all about jw's, i was one at one time....they nearly killed each other stumbling down the stairs to race back to the car group.
  it was both funny and sad. first off, nothing profound was states by either the sisters, or by my husband. no arguing or discussion hadhad a chance to get started.
  i simply told them i was a jw at one time....and they ran like demons had pitch forks pokin' their hinies.
  such fear for former members......
  oh well, maybe they'll log on here

  What do you like about K Halls?

  by philo in

  hi folks.

  what do you like about kingdom halls?.

  i am not talking about the software i.e., the people, the pure language, the music, the smell of lavender as the toilet door swings to, or the obedient rustle of bible pages.

  my younger(devout) jw sister lives in an old kh. i guess the bro's needed a bigger better place.
  any how, they are living in it rent free, but have to renovate it in lieu of $$$.
  i have not been there since my mom passed away, but remember the lay out. the master bedroom has been installed where the platform was. they kept the step up. i'll bet the platform is getting some action it never has seen before!!!!
  i just saw some humor in this.....
