The Disfellowshipping Arrangement is Total Double-Speak

by Pika_Chu in

i am livid right now, so please understand i'm venting, and i don't mean to sound like a troll.

i just found out about the "simplified" wt and the koolaid edition reinforcing shunning.

this is really freaking me out, but, anyway, i just had an epiphany.

This Years Memeorial and MY heartbreak

by PSacramento in

so...this years memorial came and went.. on saturday my mom called to invite my wife, myself and my two little girls to the memorial on sunday, i said thank you but said that we won't be going.. on sunday my older sister called inviting us also.. we didn't go, since my eldest daughter asked about it, i explaine dit to her and asked my wife and her if they wanted to do it at home and they said yes.. so after dinner, we all partook of our lord's sacrifice and i explained to my daughters how the taking in of christ's body and blood is symbolic for become one with christ and god.. we always remember christ and his sacrifice and last meal whenever we eat and "say grace" but, becuase of the whoel memorial meal thing, we decided to do a little more.. i read from luke and john.. it was very nice, very special.. then this morning at 8:30 am my mom calls and reams me for 40 min over the phone.. why anyone would think that i or anyone else would want to be a part of an organization that fills people with som much venom and spit, is beyond me.. she basically said that she gives up on me, that i am taken by satan, that satan is working through me and leading me and tha her heart is borken for my little girls.. my mother.... my heart is broken, there is a pain in my gut....

My brother just asked is I was one of Jehovah's witnesses

he lives near raleigh nc so i was a mess untill i head from him.

this being the memorial i didn't want to call but i just couldn't stop thinking if he was ok. so in talking he said "mom makes it out like you are no longer one of jehovah's witnesses.

i'm not sure of what to make that (she can say some off the wall things) that was his way of asking but he never came out and asked so i just didn't say anything.

Long Long pause and then he said how he was pioneering this month and only doing service, not much else... I said well I'm glad you are OK call some time.. He said I hope you have a good memorial I said you too and got off the phone. Feeling like crap right now. My brother sounds so brain washed?!
