  The Westboro Baptist Church uses term "Disfellowship"

  by meangirl in

  i just got through reading a biography by lauren drain "banished-a memoir" where she writes about surviving her years in the westboro baptist church and i noticed that they use the term disfellowship.

  i thought it was interesting since i had never heard of another religion using that term.

  hmmmmm so a "hate group" uses that term.....interesting don't you think?.

  some of you may or may not know but i came out before my husband.

  he has not been to the meetings in 4 years but still acted like a witness.

  i know it has been hard on him as he was raised a witness and i was not.

  an important battle is brewing in israel between a orthodox sect and women's rights in public.. http://news.yahoo.com/jewish-gender-segregation-campaign-turns-violent-135056846.html.

  since the news broke last week that a woman had been beheaded in saudia arabia for being a witch, and with the legal and physical assaults against abortion clinics here in the us the role of religion in society continues to demand our attention and activism..

  how many of us here find the use of a female to conduct the defence unusual?.

  the wt religion is notoriously misogynistic.

  anybody with a penis is preferable to do a non menial job.. why the change here?.

  JWs preparing for some "Special Top Secret Meeting" does anyone knows about this?

  by Free!! in

  2. friends

  i was talking to one of my jw ex-friends today (we keep in contact every once in a while) and she was all excited telling me about the new arregment, a special meeting only for elders, their wives, pioneers and other sheep of "exemplary" conduct... (of course she was invited)..... something about one meeting from bethel that is going to be broadcasted to everyone at assembly halls and translated via radio for those who cannot speak english... is by invitation only (and they are "being discreet w the invitations to avoid offend the ones not invited") and they even gave them tickets they have to present at the door..... anyone has the scoop??
