  Might Geoffrey Jackson attempt or commit suicide as a result of the ARC?

  by Esse quam videri in

  this may seem to be a harsh subject, but we have repeatedly heard how shunned jw's, of all ages, have committed suicide.

  they succumbed to the harsh treatment brought on them by the watchtower society and in turn their families and so-called friends.. is it possible that the 'harsh treatment' the australian royal commission will met out to mr. jackson, by the relentless, probing questions, that he consider suicide?

  perhaps losing face under the onslaught of merciless questioning, bringing that which is hidden into the light.

  "now that has been changed.

  Sorry you are going through that. I just went through that and the marriage completely crumbled.

  After having been through it for 7 or 8 years, trying everything to make things right, it's a huge relief to move on. In fact, it's exciting.

  For the first time, my whole world has opened up.

  I do hope that you can figure out a way to make it work. However; please know that there is life on the other side. You will get through this and you can be very, very happy.

  how the things are going with my sister

  by opusdei1972 in

  this morning i phoned my sister so as to know how the things are going with her problem with the congregation.

  if i remember well, five weeks ago, my sister was asked by the elders (in the street) to attend a judicial meeting for apostasy.

  my sister told them that she firstly needs a formal letter specifying who is accusing her.

  "God, this makes me so sad. We have lost folks to suicide due to shunning right here on this board. People who have struggled for years with the consequences that the wtbts and Jehovah's witnesses engineer to hurt dissidents. How I wish the wtbts did not need to be threatened legally in order to act morally and ethically!"

  
  

  This is post reminds me of Oompa. I still miss him... :(

  
  

  It it infuriates and disgusts me that they have to be forced to back off. Ughhhhh
