  Advice on Disassociating

  by HiddenPimo in

  1. jw

  hello my exjw/pimo/pomo friends,.

  i am working on penning my da letter and wondered if i should use it as a tool to maybe wake up individuals as the boe will have to read it.. anyone have any advice on what i should say versus what i should leave out?

  i am not going to fade as my family can either be loyal to blood or loyal to a man made religion.

  why play by their silly stupid rules?, a DA letter would only be read by the BoE's and you'd be lucky if they paid much attention to the nitty gritty of your letter if you was trying to prove their doctrines are wrong via a DA letter, fading is always the best policy especially if you have family members/close personal friends in that you care about, they hate faders/inactive ones, it makes possible work for them in regards to " "shepparding" visits etc and it makes the CO have to do a few more minutes work each visit

  Venus and Serena William's mother in a Mother's Day commercial

  by Expanded-Mind in

  i think this is such a cute commercial!

  (link below) however, if venus and serena's mother is a loyal witness, i am surprised that she would consent to do a mother's day commercial.

  we all know what they teach about celebrating this and so many other holidays.

  a vile family from the creepy dad and his camera obsession and the strange mum, the less said about Serena the better,if a sniper had blown her brains out immediately after her repulsive repugnant behaviour in the 2018 US Open tennis final I think I would have congratulated him, typical family coming from nothing and having wealth, zero class, Venus is the only member of that awful family that has ever conducted herself on a level of normality, trailer park trash winning the lottery always goes wrong

  i ended my bible study today.

  several months ago, i began to feel that the truth was not the truth.

  as the months progressed, my feelings intensified.

  No and I have a vested interest to look out for them, I've been in my currant place since 2014, I had one memorial invitation posted a couple of years back and a couple of years back I saw out of my window a group of them doing what looked like RV's so I went down to have a chat with them, apart from that I simply never see them out doing D2D work anymore.

  "I don't want to hear any negative comments about the truth"

  2. experiences

  today the "anointed" sister that drops off tracts at my house, did a little i'll just stop by and show her a website about furniture and then offer the memorial tract visit.. her exhusband is a jw that did terrible things to her by taking property, didn't want to pay adequate child support and had the elders on his side.

  she was telling me all about how, because he felt so guilty, now he had intestinal problems.

  eventually the conversation ended and she offered the memorial tract to me.. "did you get an invitation?

  negativity and the "truth" go hand in hand, both traits are never away from them, rotten to the core, always will be
