Is it true? Heard a rumor WT postphones Disfellowshipping until further notice!!??

by Olivia Wilde in

i am not sure if it's true but i heard from a good source that wt has given instructions to elders to postponed disfellowshipping members from wrong doing/gross sin until further instructions given by headquarters.

i heard some jws were just reproved either privately or publically.

has anyone else heard anything like this recently?

They would not seek out those that are already disfellowshiped and at the same time they could discourage new disfellowship procedures. They could still publicly humiliate the unruly through public reproof and maybe some of the former hard nosed ones who have been out a long time would seek reinstatement and after a while, they would be viewed almost like Catholics and say "we don't burn unbelievers anymore we just strongly rebuke them!". Makes perfect sense to me. All I am saying it's possible.

If I win the lottery

by eyeuse2badub in

i haven't yet won the state lottery but i purchased a lottery ticket last night.

if i win the lottery, it's $150 million.. if i win, my name is publicly announced and of course my picture gets into the news.

i will probably get df'ed.. however, will the wtbts accept a hefty "donation' from my 'lucky' winnings?

If I won a big lottery like 20 million or so I would relish the television interview almost as much as the money. When interviewed about what I am going to do with all the money? I would look the Camera's straight in the eye and say something like "I have been screwed around by a lot of people in my life and now I have the money to get even with them and they all know who they are!!" Then I would hire a bunch of private detectives to observe the fall out of some of the more likely suspects as well as good security staff to deal with the non thought of collateral damage LOL.

Morpheus I wouldn't go back even if threatened at gun point and I mean that! So what I said is not out of wishful thinking just an observation.

Does his HS operate over the Wtbts? I have no reason to believe that God would not use his HS on occasions just as he might over any other organisation.

I wonder if his holy spirit could be acting through me? I don't think so ROTFLMAO!!

Long Story of my Life/Experience

by GrownMidget in

also, my wife has come to her limits of understanding me about the witnesses related grief i have been having.

she has told me many times to stop reading the ex-witness sites because i get depressed and become angry, which sadly is true.

it's not very productive to be sad throughout the entire day and then shout at your wife for the reason she has no first hand experience about, therefore how could she possibly know and help?

It's possible maybe but that will be because their bleeding Money and member ship. What does any business do in a first world nation when they need new workers? They lobby their politicians to import them from 3rd world hellholes. Maybe someone reckons that the current disfellowshipping practice would hinder their business approach to both politicians and potential third World recruits?

Letter to be read at meeting this week about the downsize

by dropoffyourkeylee in

a family member who is a bethelite informed me today that there is a letter to be read soon ( this week or next) concerning the downsizing.

so probably someone who has their midweek meeting early in the week will be able to fill in the details.

Pop Trivia

by Simon in

so many serious topics lately ... so for anyone who wants a break, it's trivia time and the subject is pop music.. which act is the only one to have a top 100 hit both before, during and after the beatles had theirs?.

no googling.

if you guess, you also need to add a trivia question for others to answer..
