Not a chance. If anything at all it will be a nice "reasonable" talk about how they want the prodigal sons and daughters back in the fold - but CO's will be telling the elders not to loosen their grip.

75Rumor about the Imitate Jesus Convention
by FusionTheism ini saw a rumor a few weeks ago on reddit that the new imitate jesus convention is supposed to present new light and clarified understandings on the disfellowshipping/disassociation practices.. supposedly, if this rumor has any truth to it, there will be a talk given at the convention about how we should not be strict like the pharisees in how we shun people, loosening up some of the jw rules about this practice.. has anyone here heard anything about this or have more info on it?.

Me here again ...
Of course if you are really intent on staying in then move to a high ratio of males to females. Alaska? Only half-joking.

Play gently people - we were there once.
Now asiandiana I hate to say this but if you prove to yourself whether you are following the truth first - as in the real honest to God truth as opposed to the "truth" of the ever changing direction of the leaders of Jehovah's Witnesses - then that would possibly open your horizons to new possibilities.

Specific Comments By R&F About May Broadcast
by freemindfade ini know there are many posts discussing the may money requesting televangalism...er... broadcast i mean!
but i wanted to start one where anyone can put what they have heard any non-exjw, non-apostate witnesses say good or bad about the broadcast.
i don't see how it can't rattle followers... but then again i might be surprised how they can twist things (2+2=5).

"disillusioned 22 hours ago
I am afraid to ask my family, we always end up having rows when I ask any questions. I wouldn't be surprised if my 85 year old mum upped her contributions!"
Today's WT study was partly about Naboth not giving his inheritance to the wicked king Ahab when it was demanded of him.
Wicked king Ahab was the anointed. Naboth refuse to give up his inheritance. Perhaps your 85 year old mother should not give up any inheritance to any modern day wicked anointed? -

Text received by me from a still in ex-elder who as far as I know is still not a doubter.
Him "Have you seen the May Broadcast?"
Me (playing dumb) "What's it about?"
Him "First it's give us your money then followed by quit your job and go to the meeting!"
Me "You winding me up?"
Him "Watch it and see for yourself."
The next day I texted him back
Me "Wow! You were right! what happened to Luke 14:28?"
No reply as yet ...

They're Making it Impossible to Fade
by DarioKehl infor those of you who have already faded due to family still being in, have you noticed how the noose is tightening?.
if it's not memorial, it's special day assembly.
if it's not that, it's convention or the special talk.

You do need to be firm. Whether they are showing sincere loving interest or whether they are on a power trip "treat these two imposters just the same" and simply say as many times as you need:
"Thank you for your interest, brother - I have some personal matters that need all my attention right now and so I won't be able to join in/join up/do that/have a shephering visit/go on the ministry with you/ if anything changes I'll let you know."
They will let you go or may offer help - if so politely say
"like I said brother I have some matters to attend to over the coming weeks - if anything changes I will let you know."
If they really persist just put your hand up and say "I know where you are if I need you, gotta run!" and walk away.
Rinse and repeat as often as you need.
