do not understand "slow" fade, "controlled" fade, why not just stop quickly
by oompa in
1. jw

onthewayout has a current thread about a slow fade, and i have read many others that are similar.

i do not understand how fading slowly vs. fading very quickly has any different consequences.

and i mean whether an elder or pioneer or not.

less than one week after meeting with two elders who had been told of my visiting this site, a good friend called me.

he said his mother (age 73), in a different city from me, called him and told him she heard i was now an apostate.

now how the hell did that happen?

from reading hundreds of posts, i see that certain aspects of the jw org seem to effect each of us differently.

the same is obviously true for those still in the org.

how can we find the item that will awaken others, especially those we love?

if a witness came to this site and began using it regularly under totally annonymous id, and this came to the attention of local elders as almost certain fact, would this actually be considered apostacy?

he knows nobody, they do not know him, and he tells no lies about the orginazation anyway.

he does not want followers.

i have just been outed on this site due to my own stupidity, and lost my anonymity after just a short pleasant while here.

i have been turned in folks, compete with screen name/avatar, by family and i have a ton in.

it is easy to tell it is me, although i never use anyones names.
