I had a similar experiece at my mothers funeral, the JW's all filed out of the Hall and none would talk to me, except a few relatives that I cornered and they looked like they were about to go in their pants because they were talking to me since I had quit. Well it just proves they don't have God's Spirit, I don't believe the brain washed Sheep ever think about anything but doing what the society says. If the society said jump of a cliff, drink that kool aid,... how dangerous to be in the clutches of a cult.

Why is the Watchtower Society so cruel to teens?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inmy mom just informed me that a 17 year old has been disfellowshipped at her hall.at least 7 others have been kicked out within the last 5 years.the publisher count is only 56 .why do they let the teens get baptized so young?
i was 14 and only got baptized because of pressure and the end was coming.if you weren't baptized you would be destroyed.. why don't they wait until everyone is at leat 21?
all these teens haven't come back and you won't ever see them unless they return.i haven't seen my cousin in over 2 years.no one went to his wedding,isn't invited to any family functions and is to be avoided at all costs.. the watchtower society should be ashamed that they act that way and the parents let them get away with it..

Since the Witnesses are controlled by the power elite who want a world wide two class society a sure way to do that is break up families and familty loyalty. Its the same reason they brought the public schools in in the 1800's to get children away from their homes and parents and loyal to the government not their families, like, the Nazis did,t and they do it all over the world.today through various organizations like the JW's.

transcript of a disfellowship appeal meeting -they can get you for anything
by jwfacts ini have just received the transcript of the disfellowship appeal meeting from a person i know from a recording he took.
it is quite typical in the condescension of the elders.
unfortunately he did not record the initial meeting.

In our congregation there was the elder with the strong personlity who ran the show and the rest of the elders were just rubber stamps. He was like the 'hanging judge' like in the movie 'The life and times of Judge Roy Bean' he would always take the harshest view of anybody elses conduct, except of course his own kids who broke every rule and got away with murder. and he disfellowshipped people on a regular basis for just about anything. It just proves they don't have Gods spirit.

How long does it take for a pioneer to change a light bulb? Well if you factor in coffee breaks and padding his time in order to make hour quotas probably a month or two.

by The Dragon inare people "evil" (in god's definition?
) or just don't know what "good" is yet?

I think a fish rots from the head down, if the people at the most powerful and wealthy, on top of society, are evil it trickles down.

I thought people weren't going to be having children in the new system. At least that was the belief in the late seventies, they were to be like the angels no procreation. Am I remembering right, if everyone had children in the new order the population would in an eternity of time fly out of control.

They would do the same thing to him, the exact same types run things today, and they did do it to Lincoln, Garfield, Kennedy, King, Kennedy again, Malcolm X, Che Gueverra, John Lennon, Wellstone, Kennedy Jr., Lady Di, and even attempted it on George Wallace,and Reagan. Sorry this isn't funny, unless of course your in the elite.

At fifty, the madwoman in the attic breaks loose............" - Erica Jong
by Sunnygal41 ini was thinking this morning about an incident that happened yesterday and came to a very welcome realization..like rett butler, i simply dont give a damn..what others preconceived notions or expectations of me are anymore.i am happy, and content with who and where i am in my life.its a good place to be emotionally and mentally, after being soooo tormented for so many years.with all the negative people pleasing baggage i carried around.its like erica jong said:at fifty, the madwoman in the attic breaks loose, stomps down the stairs, and sets fire to the house.
she won't be imprisoned anymore.its a great place to be, as a woman.anyone else care to share?.

Men or women, we were all prisoners of tyrannical JW expectations which are out of sink with human nature. The more you let go of others expectations the more freedom you enjoy. Best wishes honey, enjoy your freedom.
