i felt with newer members coming on and other jw fence sitters lurking it might be a good thing to explain what many of us have had to go through in regards to being shunned, cut off, ostracized from our jw families in an unjust way .

whether we are dfed or inactive - many of us have shared this same fate and ill treatment.

for many of us- it makes us stronger, more firmly entrenched that the decision we made to exit the jehovah's witness organization was the correct decision as no organization that claims to be " christian " would ever commit such horrid atrocities or justify it !

by compound complex in

friends

i'm listening to streaming audio from hearts of space, and pink floyd (new to me after all these years) is featured on the program "when space met rock.".

their playing a concert began amidst beautiful, sunny weather - then came the storm .... were you there?

or have you read the story?.

I saw them in '95 sans Rager Waters, it was still a great show. Momentary Lapse of Reason tour.

Here is an ancient song of theirs, with Syd:

Are You Ready for The Memorial?

by OnTheWayOut in

it's this week, folks.

i thought i might give you a new thread to vent on.

many on our forum still go to the memorial or have to answer to family about not going.

Again, I am not going this year. I got the obligatory invite last month, but respectfully declined.

How do you Spell Disfellowshipped?

by RayPublisher in

the reason i ask, is that if you search the wt publications, you will see that it is spelled with only one "p" over 600 times, but also spelled with two "p"s 600 times.. .

very confusing!

any linguistic experts out there that know which it should be?.

JRK

Two P's is the correct spelling according to the Oxford dictionary. The writing department got its college education from reading the Awake! magazine, so they have no clue how to spell.

Just an interesting footnote, my sister is a Gilead graduate, and she still spells the name of her religion as "Jehovah's Wittnesses."
