If you don't want to get DF, deny everything. They need two witnesses and it seems there is only one as far as i can gather from your explanation.

Waiting for the JWs to come to my door...
by Hortenzie ini read about the new tract distribution and thought to myself how should i react, when they come to my door.
finally today, after finishing my morning coffee, i got an idea!
i'll take the tract, look at it, look at them, and with a nice smile rip it up and hand it back to them with :"have a great day!

Just remind them that for the last 140 years they have been preaching the same crap and they themselves will never see the new system. Don't forget to smile!

We are not trees
by Rip ingot a stengthening committee coming in yesterday and i lashed down the bomb.. honestly, without fear i pointed out all contradictons with reference to the july 15 watchtower,.
the first article about sheep and goats, killing the year 1914 (that was a good move) and then ressussitating it in the next article about wheat and weeds( i said this is an irresponsible writing) and attempting to re emphasize it in the rest of the following article.
outrageous, dishonest and irresponsible.

Start missing meetings and fade.....don't allow them the satisfaction to DF you. Even threaten them with a lawsuit if they try. They know you are right in your questioning and reasoning
but they are doing their job given to them by the mafia leaders in New York..

Never....rather use my remaining time on this earth to enjoy life and to help those that need help and not waste time knocking on doors and leaving
a piece of literature full of lies.

by Captain Blithering inits possible i might be asked by the co to work with him today.
hes gonna want to know why i'm holding myself back.
i'm itching to tell him about my doubts (only about the new light, how i cant get my head around how the hs would direct us to believe falsehoods for decades, not about everything, that'd be suicide!

We have been in your shoes...all has been said about the outcome once you realize this religion is not the "truth".
You cannot stay in and play their game, the only hope is that in time your wife might see the "light " and both of you walk away from the watchtower.
In my case,ex wife did not want to live with an " apostate ".
Take your time with your decisions, act wisely and good luck.

Half of the United States most likely already knows that he was DF.
It was a public announcement that he was DF. Revealing his name is not a big thing but you should not reveal what he did since it was not announced to the congregation.

277k baptized
That's the kind of number we used to get when there were only 5-6 million pubs.
With almost 8million publishers the numbers shoulb be much better than that.
Anyway, very few are coming in but 12-17 year olds born in the organization

SOOO - this is what they think passes for "piousneering " nowadays???
by hamsterbait inon my way into work, i saw a "litterature waggon" strapped to a lamp post outside the railway station.. three (i kid you not) three "pious sneers" were standing, almost thirty feet away, gossiping laughing.. i watched for about five minutes, not one person looked at the stuff (it had "bible" on it so warned passersby cult.).
they never once went near the display to draw attention to it.
in fact, only an ex dubbie would have known they were connected with it.. by the end of the morning, they will have put in 3 x number of hours standing chatting and drinking coffee to keep warm.

I see these type of preaching in California all the time.
You got 4-5 Latino brothers, neatly dressed in a suit, Latinos always wear a jacket by the way even when it's 100deg.standing outside in a small shopping center just having fun.
They don't display any magazines, people come out of store and are not approched....just a nice social gathering and counting time.

A life saving message?
All religions preach a life saving message so jw's message is just another spin of the "message" .
