My JW Elder Brother Passed Away
by minimus inhe was basically a good man, just a believer in the religion.
when we were both elders we were best of friends and then things deteriorated when i was not an elder for a while.
then after becoming an elder again, i slowly drifted away from the religion and he drifted further away from me.

I believe it is Plymouth, Devon. Which is indeed a city by the seaside. It features in this dubtown lego clip EPISODE 17...
And of course "Robert Skinner" is featured.

Think about this! All the signs of the last days from Matt.24. That jw's point to, happened in the 1st half of the last century!
by nowwhat? inand now it's 2018 and we are still here.
that's like saying back in 1930 the events of the civil war show we are in the last days!
it has now been that long!.

It all seemed to be coming to a head in the last third of the twentieth century didn't it?
We had had WW1 and WW2. Nuclear bombs and nuclear missiles to put them on by the 1950's. Cuban Missile crisis in 1962.
Run up to 1975 we had USSR Bloc and NATO squaring off, Kennedy assassination, Vietnam, (in the UK we had strikes, power cuts, short week working).
Then after the 1975 debacle we still had "the generation" dream running at full steam to keep us on message. More Superpower tension, rise of China, Falklands war, Russians in Afghanistan - but suddenly in 1990 it all came to a shuddering halt - fall of the Iron Curtain - united and benign Germany.
Early 1990's - Ooh! might this be the shout of peace and security? The generation are in their 80's and 90's now - gotta happen soon!
Then our feet were cut from under us - Generation change! Run out of time!
By 2000 it was all over bar the realisation.
We had been had.

Shallowness in 4/29 Watchtower study
by Rattigan350 inmove forward as a spiritual person.. paragraph 2 "robert and his wife began passing time by quizzing each other on bible subjects.
his wife, a spiritually strong person, had no problem answering the questions, but robert found himself constantly embarrassed, not knowing what to say.".
there is no indication of how she fits the template of a spiritual person other than she can answer bible trivia.

When I quote scripture like Acts 1 v 8, Luke 21 v 8, or Acts 17 v 11 most jw's either shut down, accuse me of setting up my own doctrines or run away metaphorically screaming "La-la-la I can't hear you!"
But then I can't be spiritual - I refuse to stand like a dummy next to a trolley cart.

by Whynot inmy husband was df 3 years ago.

Some very good advice for you from the above forum members Whynot.
May I ask what your "attachment" is?
Is it close family in the borg?
Is it the jw hope for the future? (Resurrection/Paradise)
If it's the former then maybe, just maybe a reinstatement and fade out IS the way to go.
If largely the latter then maybe you can retain a "Christian" belief and hope without going through 8 deluded men in New York - just go "direct" in your thoughts and prayers.
If you want to reinforce and support each other for as long as you retain some semblance of christian beliefs play the "Jehovah understands" broken record out loud.
Best of luck!

This one in Raglan South Wales went in 2017 for property development. It was I believe home to Monmouth Congregation of JW's which moved to Ross-on-Wye hall. (note meeting times blanked out)
Someone else may be able to confirm exact details.

Hi John!
If you believe the bible is from Jehovah then you will see that his followers do as described at Acts 1 v 8. That is be witnesses of ... Jesus.
Jesus's Witnesses.
And at Luke 21 v 8 he said who to avoid and not follow ...
Those who are always saying the end is near or put themselves in the place of Jesus.
I hope that helps you see clearly who to follow and who to avoid as you search the scriptures for their true message.
Of course many of us aren't at all sure the bible has any message. Perhaps you can help by explaining?
I also believe there are plenty of helpful folk here who can assist with life's practicalities such as how to go about getting work, providing for loved ones and thinking ahead for what is truly the best life can offer.
