Welcome to the board lost husband. Listen to what Mouthy said. She, like many others, knows all too well that the Watchtower org. is a dangerous and destructive cult. My husband and I were in this cult for nearly 50 years before we were able to leave but not without repercussions. He was disfellowshipped in 2005 for telling the Elders about the Watchtower's involvement with the United Nations, showing them written articles in the Watchtower publications teaching hatred to those who leave the cult, and the cover-ups of all the pedophiles in the congregations. If you would like to hear what went on in his judicial committee meeting with the Elders, go to our website at www.sixscreensofthewatchtower.com Go to the "fly on the wall" and click on to hear his whole hearing that was secrectly recorded. Although the local Elders sent me a letter to tell me that I too was disfellowshipped for apostasy, I appealed their decision and it was overturned by the Governing Body when I threatened to sue them!I did not appeal their decision because I wanted to remain a Jehovah's Witness but because I hoped that our family members who are Witnesses would not shun us. But, even that didn's work. We have two daughters, their husbands and our oldest grandson who do shun us. Also all of my husband's family who are still Witnesses have nothing to do with us. The Watchtower organization is nothing more than a business masquerading as a religion. It is, in fact a dangerous and destructive cult. That is why we continue to expose them. We hope to save others from getting involved before they ruin their lives for the sake of this cult. We host a live telephone conference call every other Saturday night where we have guests who come on and tell our listeners from all over the world about how they were "touched by the tentacles of the Watchtower"! Please feel free to join us on the call this Saturday, August 29,2009 at 7 p.m.EST. It's easy to get on the call, just dial (712)432-8710 and when asked for pin number use 9925. There is no cost for the call, just your normal calling rates apply. This Saturday we will be having as our special guest Daniel Chamberlayne, author of the book "Kingdom Hall No MOre". We hope you can join us to hear his riviting story of why he left Jehovah's Witnesses.
