NEED HELP finding info on disassociating those who aren't active.....
by Lady Liberty indear friends,.
i need help finding when, how and where i might find that announcement..publication...where the new procedure was not to announce ones as being dfed..but now they were to be annnounced as "no longer one of jehovahs witnesses".
with that change, it made it so that those who were not active could technically be announced.

So if the elders ask you if you consider yourself a witness and you say yes....what do you do when they then offer you a bible study and you refuse? Can they DA or DF you for not accepting a study? Not really. But in my experience, if a body of elders want you DF'd there's not a damn thing you can do about it except lie, lie, lie. Tell them you're going thru some depression or have some personal family problems, etc.
When I tried to fade, the buckaroo elders tried to DF me when I just wanted to be left alone. They pushed matters by asking probing questions and I was too dumb to not be honest with them, and in the end, I DA'd myself and moved on.
If I knew then what I know now, things would be different. Gymbob

All current JWs: What is this?
by AuldSoul inthe bible students in 1918 numbered very few, fewer than 6,000. within three years, the number tripled.. the "intriguing subject" they proclaimed from 1918 through 1922 was "millions now living will never die.
" upwards of 70,000 attended to hear this message proclaimed in germany alone.
the talk series had a longer title, "the world has endedmillions now living will never die.

I DA'd myself almost 5 years ago.
My son and daughter left with me, then their mom filed for divorce after being married 23 years. My ex-wife is about ready to have a nervous breakdown because the stupid witness cult teaches her that she shouldn't associate with her own kids anymore since they left "The Truth".
She's trying to be a good little witness, but it's killing her. Stupid witness cult......
But don't ever think that they break up families though! Can you feel the love?

Our talk today is entitled THE 10 COMANDMENTS George Carlin please.....
by fedorE inhere is my problem with the ten commandments- why exactly are there 10?
you simply do not need ten.
the list of ten commandments was artificially and deliberately inflated to get it up to ten.

Hello Everyone...
by Abandoned ini've been away for quite awhile.

i just couldn't give any more seconds of my life to talking about anything even remotely related to jehovah's witnesses.

Carla is right.....be careful about what you write down to them if you have been baptized.
If you write something that could be taken as apostate, you could easily be DF'd, and that would change everything.
My parents and family have nothing to do with me anymore, but if they did, i'd like to ask my mom this question:
Back in the late 50's when you first started studying with JW's, if someone had told you that in 2007 Armageddon still will not have come; and this religion will tell you not to speak with or have anything to do with your children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren because they grew up and as adults chose not to be witnesses, would you still join it?
