I know I could have just ignore them and stay. Unfortunately among with the other JW's was a first degree relative of mine, that besides my disfellowship still talks to me and treats me kindly. That was the only reason I left quietly, other wise I wouldn't move my ass from there. It was a public event that JW's have nothing to do with it.
I recall WT's policy on this matter, that if they have a situation like that "faithfull JW's" must leave or sit some place else, if they will have to eat at the same table with a disfellowshiped person. Perhaps Blondie can give more light in a situation like that.
Since I left WT 3 years ago, I do not accept their leadership or their elders. Unfortunately WT still some how controls our life. The fact that we are posting here indicates this.
Most of all they show their real face, an Evil Cult, that have nothing to do with Christian Love and Jesus. It is a shame how the leadership of the WT destroying peoples lifes, in a way that they can be fixed again.
My crime is that I no longer believe in the WT that they are "God's"chosen ones. For this "crime" I was not allowed to attend to my daughters wedding reception, and for sure it will happen the same with the other 2 children I have...
WT thinks that is beyond God and Jesus, it is an idolatry worship that turns people way from Christ, just like the Golden Culves in Bethel...
