Thanks for the suggestions. I may just get a whole collection of them now-name each one. I love the GB Smurf idea! How about Single Sister Pioneer Smurf, Smug Elder's wife Smurf, Never gonna get remarried Smurf--- the names could be endless.

For me the very best thing is that I no longer have to deal with the tremendous guilt that I had-guilt for not doing enough spiritually. I really, truly feel 'FREE'. Thank you JWN and all of it's members for helping me with this! I will be eternally grateful.

"Inside a Cult" on NatGeo
by undercover ini watched a couple of episodes of "inside" on natgeo last night.
these two episodes were, "inside a cult" and followed the cult led by wayne bent (who calls himself michael travesser) who claims he is divinity and humanity in one and that he is the messiah.. the guy's a true whack job.
he prophesied the end of the world on october 31, 2007. guess what...it didn't happen, yet the majority of his followers remained.. bent went to jail for improper sexual contact with an underage girl who was in the cult.

I saw the show last night and it WAS creepy. Those girls were so honored to lay naked with the perv. I'm glad he got sentenced to jail. I have read that his son has taken over the 'church' or whatever they call it now that dad is in jail.

Has anyone ever ratted out there family member to the socitey for talking to a disfellowhipped family member?
by Peaches1978 inhi everyone, the reason why i ask this question is (aka i've been defellowshiped for 16 years now) because within the past month my mom and brother and sister which are witnesses (after going to the famous assembly )have been bugging me, i've tried to do it in a nice way and tell my dear mother to leave me alone stop calling me and dont come around my house.
she won't listen, i have never been close to my family or have had a relationship with them.. so it' doesnt bother me that they dont talk to me.
but my point is that they need to follow their own rules.

Peachy-sorry that your mom didn't do the right thing in regards to you as a young person. Shame on her and on those elders!!! I can see why you are not close with her. I think you should tell her what's on your mind. Some family relationships are toxic. Best Wishes!

I'm sorry, I didn't get in her post that they were harassing her with WT stuff. They probably were but once again, I stand by my statement that they are just concerned for her and miss her as a part of their lives. Obviously, they are going about it the wrong way by preaching to her but none the less, they are worried.
I don't want to hear what happened at the assembly, KH or what the latest article inthe WT says, but my mom loves me and is worried to death about my inactivity-as I'm sure that Peaches family is. I could never break her heart by telling her what I really think. I guess, to each his own.

Sounds to me like your family misses you and are worried. I understand not wanting your kids exposed to that mess but maybe there is a happy medium somewhere for you.

My JW parents met my wife, but would not see me...
by Confession inso it was time for the 25 year reunion of tawas area high school's class of '84.
because i was class president, i've been responsible for throwing all the reunions we've held.
while i come to michigan on business a few times per year, i don't usually make it all the way up to the little, northeast, lake huron tourist town where they live.
