many of us here have been "outed" as ones who no longer believe that this is "the truth".. many didn't have the chance to do it in our own way, and in our own time, but rather someone "found out about our apostasy" and "reported" it to the spiritual police (elders).
would you like to share your stories?.
Here is a thread about an ugly spate of outings that were caused by AAWA force adding people on FaceBook. One person got DFed and disinherited because of this clusterfuck of an organization!

president trump is definitely a demagogue, a populist, and not a great extemporaneous speaker, just to mention few of his more conspicuous flaws.
however, i was going along because "it's the economy stupid".
now that has changed.
Smoot Hawley 2. Here comes the next Great Depression!

"you-you're graham somebody...air supply...the tall one.
I hope you had your bike locked this time.

i'm pimo, very much against disfellowshipping, and going to a meeting leaves me feeling confused and angry at the best of times.
except an elder asked me on thursday night if i can start giving a ride to a disfellowshipped woman because she lives near me and nobody else from the hall lives in my village.
it seems the elder and his family who have been giving this woman a ride for the past six months can no longer stomach the time it takes them to go out of their way.. i thought all normal publishers weren't to have any contact with disfellowshipped people?
JUST SAY NO!

i met a wonderful man on match.com several months ago.
on our first date, there was amazing chemistry and we ended up having sex.
it was not planned, it just happened.
Do you know FOR SURE that he is not already married?

my boyfriend, who is a disfellowshipped jehova's witness, asks me to study the bible for 3 months or he won't marry me (i'm a muslim woman).
he loves me and really wants to marry me but he is doing a passive blackmailing: if i don't study for 3 months, 1 time per week, in my home country, and without him, there will be no marriage... as a muslim, i believe the bible is god's word so i look at the bible from time to time and would be happy to study with him.
but the fact that he is kind of saying "study the bible or bye bye no marriage" is really hurtful.
Flip is right. There is nothing worse than a POMI (physically out, mentally in).
They have been disfellowshipped themselves, but they have the gall to make you live up to their standards, which they themselves apparently aren't. Run like hell for the Hills, or from the Hills!

i don’t think any would give up the gravy train but that’s me personally.
ray franz was part of a larger club..
Considering the lastest crew, it would have to be the 2 newer ones. The others were all Teddy's yes men. Not one idea to share with the bunch of them.

It does kind of remind us of the latest "shell game" with JW dot ORGasm. Take a new direction and bury their past. Maybe the pedophilia stuff will fly over some heads. Maybe the flap about being an NGO for the UN will get buried too!

following up on this thread: https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5012900121935872/am-overreacting-here?page=3#!#5179106934128640.
im seeing my solicitor tomorrow to see about getting an order in place making sure any contact my daughter has with my jw family goes through me and not my ex-wife.. explained the situation briefly to the lawyer, she was asking more and more about why should i be concerned if a jw had access to my child.. i mentioned the blood issue, the shunning, the inappropriate pictures of armageddon in books/mags etc.
do you think i should bring in watchtower literature to show them what i mean?
The "Custody" brochure would be good to take too.
