Spent some time skimming through...sounds like it was a dud. I don't mean any disrespect to Barbara, I think she is great and a valuable resource.
We all have lofty hopes that this whole WTS garbage will crash. But, it'll probably keep rumbling along no matter what scandle is out there.

If Your Husband (wife) is Still In - -
by Had To Go indo you vacillate between caring that he/she is still entrapped in this cult and wanting to show them everything you have learned since your awakening and not wanting to rock the boat and therefore just keeping all this knowledge to yourself?
i wonder if it is normal to go back and forth like i do.
one day i want to tell my husband something i may have read here or on another forum and maybe, just maybe i will pique his interest.

An Open letter to the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses (Elders/ Ex-Elders)
by stuckinamovement inif you are an elder or an ex-elder please add a comment.
i hope that the governing body will see this.
it is too bad it has to be on an anonymous forum.

Welcom JWStruggle.
Seems like we are in a very similar situation. You'll enjoy this place, posting you experiences and views about all things JW, is actually pretty theraputic.

Ostracism: anyone with legal background on this forum who could help?
by Nick! inhere in europe, we have started different initiatives aiming at exposing publicly and legally the watchtower on the subject of ostracism, discrimination and shunning.. in the past we have seen different manifestations held in front of kingdom halls or branch offices on issues such as pedophilia and blood transfusions policies, and even, such as in france, against building of real-estates.
now it seems that the issue of discrimination against disfellowshipped or dissociated people is gaining momentum.
we have seen the large demonstrations in brazil, and maybe the lesser important ones elsewhere.

Thanks Justitia-T. I thought this spoke volumes:
"...the United States (along with Iran) refuses to sign key portions of the International Declaration of Human Rights ..."
&
" On a side note, the U.S. Senate refuses to ratify the Rights of the Child convention, which leaves only the U.S. and SOMALIA as the world's only non-adherents"
Very interesting thread. Thank-you!
