He is a self righteous ass hole, and so I bypassed him entirely by contacting this elder instead.
Hey Jeff, you are free now. I had two elders corner me at a local gas station in town. I had no problem telling both of them how I felt. I was officially DA'd by my actions that day. But I at least went out with a bang. Been feeling better by the day and months now. No regrets at all. Still adjusting to my new life of freedom. Guess time will take care of the rest. Good luck man. Always enjoy your posts.

bye bye
by Devilsnok inits time for me to move on.. some of you will know that recently ive really messed my life up.
i met a lurker on a dub site and while we started off as just friends we became a lot more.
over 3 months we hurt both our partners and ourselves and in the end she ended up running back to her rich boyfriend and cut me off completely.. ok i know that some of you embittered bible bashers just cant wait to reach for your keyboards and start condemning me save it!

For a minute I thought I was reading a post about myself. Been there, done that. I took some time off from the board but found that the people here are the only people who can relate to our situation in life. I can feel your pain, and it is deep. Whatever you dicide I wish you the best. We will always be here if you need someone to talk to.

Heard at last Sunday talk...
by Justice-One ini almost had to sneeze and scream bullshit when i heard this.
the brother giving the talk said that the society has never made a prediction about when the end would come.
he said people just read what the society published, and added their own thoughts to it!!!

The brother giving the talk said that the Society has NEVER made a prediction about when the end would come.
If I'm not mistaken I believe Charles Taze Russell initially said that 1914 would be the end. Then changed it when nothing happened. He also said that Christ came back in 1874, then changed it to 1914. How about the famous "Millions now living will never die" speech by Judge Rutherford. Those millions that heard that are in fact DEAD now. What a bunch of bullshit.

For me it was the Mexico/Malawi double standard the Society had in the 70's. After reading Ray Franz's Crisis of Conscience , I started researching more and more. Was in the process of writing a DA letter when 2 elders cornered me at a local gas station. After some bullshit talk, I told them both to go Fu-k themselves and was DF'd about a month and a half later. I came to find out that I had actually DA'd myself when I told those two elders I wanted nothing more to do with the WTS.

Beards and bald heads
by parlay inwhat do you think about the wts prohibition on beards?
currently in the us, i think a brother can wear a beard, he just won't be used in the congregation.
i see all references in the wt to beards are in a negative light, such as the supreme court upholding a supermarket chains no beards rule.

It's portrayed as something that could prevent a JW from giving a witness, as the householder may associate the beard with something that would prevent them from listening.
I ask you, Whats more of a stumbling block: A man with a well groomed beard or the WTS joining up with the dreaded United Nations??????
