  my situation: i da'd this past march.

  the ex is still jw, in a city nice and far away so isn't able to give me any local grief.

  i have three kiddos, 8, 10 and 12. the 8yo (boy) could really give a crap, i think.

  Should I admit to JWs that I am disfellowshipped?

  by jwfacts in

  i know about 2000 jws in sydney, and have 50 that are tax clients, so barely a week goes by without bumping into someone i know.

  it seems that few of them realise that i am disfellowshipped because they talk freely to me.

  last week i accidently sat next to an elder on the train and we engaged in small talk for over 30 minutes.. should i admit to these people that i am not a jw?.

  Sunday notes at the District Convention: Avoid an independent spirit!

  finally i am free.

  i wandered outside the convention around mid-afternoon, returning for the concluding song, so i didn't get to hear "summary of the botchtower" nor the final talk (which gets all the seals clapping).. .

  know that the kingdom of god is near .

  Doubting our own intuition - reality vs. reality

  by Cady in

  when someone asks about the jws, i usually find myself talking about disfellowshipping, the blood issue, the child-molestation problem.

  but looking back i think, although those are the easily explained and perhaps somewhat sensational bad things about being a jw, they're not the only things that have left their marks.

  in fact, only the disfellowshipping issue has personally affected me (although i'm not officially df'd, but of course you don't have to be to lose your friends/family).
