I unfriended Tim.
Here is the message I sent him before I did it: Tim, you really pissed me off today when you added me to your group without asking permission. Therefore, I am unfriending you.

Zoos,
No problem for me, but thank you for your sentiments.
It is primarily a problem for faders. They can be outed as an apostate by browsers of FaceBook. Even just being a member of an apostate group is enough for an elder with a burr up his ass.
Like I said, there was a real huge problem with another group(AAWA)adding people that didn't know about it. Do a search of the archives if you are interested.

This is so uncool. I hope faders are not affected. This reminds me of the wAAWAh fiasco. Even though it is a closed group instead of open, it could still cause someone a problem. I have a friend that was disfellowshipped and lost his inheritance with the last debacle.
Check your groups on FB next time you are on.
Take care

Christadelphian
by Billy1000 inmy name is stephen and i am new to the forum.
i am a christadelphian and through my discussions with fellow members of my ecclesia it has inspired me to reach out to other religions to find out exactly what others believe to enhance my own faith and further bring me closer to our heavenly father.
in no way do i mean disrespect if it has been caused.

Hello Billy,
I believe that you are the first Christadelphian that I have ever corresponded with. It is nice to know someone from a different fork splintering from the Millerites. For us the "Great Disappointment" keeps going on in perpetuity.
I am glad that I found an exit. I am now an atheist, and am much happier now that I do not believe the apocalyptic fear mongering anymore.
Good luck in your journey.

What's a word that describes the way Witnesses behave as a group?
by paul from cleveland ini can't recall the word that describes a group that keeps to itself like the witnesses do.
i thought it was "insular" but i don't think that's the one i'm looking for after reading the definition.
i remember an elder using the word "clannish" and that has the proper definition but it reminds me of a group of elves.

Had a wonderful visit with Mr and Mrs Flipper Sat.
by 3rdgen ini haven't posted much lately because i got a new job at the end of nov. and it's taken much of my time and mental energy.
i still read though and care for you all very much so i thought i should let you know about the meet-up i had yesterday with mr and mrs flipper.. hubby got a call the day before from flipper saying he and his wife were going to visit his mother (who is in a rest home in my town) and would we like to meet up for coffee?
hubby couldn't make it but i was delighted to accept.. we picked a burger place not far from the rest home and where i knew jdubs don't usually hang out on saturdays.

A great suggestion from a current Bethelite on the chopping block
by Gilbeath Haaraloth ina very close friend of mine has gotten his letter.
although he was planning to leave willingly, he told me that he can't help but feel a sense of being stabbed in the back by a bunch of self righteous traitors.
he gave tours for years, always telling the visitors "this is the best way of life, i would never change anything here and i'll never regret making this decision to come here.

Travel recommendations?
by stephanie61092 inhey guys.
i've decided that during this time of being dfed, maybe trying to get reinstated, i'm going to enjoy my time with myself.
that being said, i would like to do some traveling when the weather warms up across the us.

One thing that might be enlightening would be to go to the apostafest at Lake Tahoe in July. Beautiful scenery too.

Good idea or bad idea?
by stephanie61092 infirst and foremost, thank you so much to so many of you who have reached out to me over the past few days since my post on sunday.
i'm not totally in the best mental state, however, i do have a very small amount of people that i can lean on for support.
i relayed my feelings to a friend (my only friend, really), who took the initiative to inform my family.

As for therapy, it would be good to find someone with experience with exiting cults.
