we moved to a neighboring congregation that is out of our original region knowing we would see no one and the two boe's wouldn't really have immediate dealings.

Gorbatchov

Exact the same we did, we moved to an other city.

They came to see us, but we replied "We have no need to make an apointment". Never heard anything again from them.

Heard recently that an old friend, now CO, comes to our region. I expect he will visit us 🤨

Did Ray Franz Help You To Get Out of “The Truth”?

i sneakily read his books at work.

it was written in such a way that no one could accuse him of being another bitter old apostate.. once it registered in my brain, especially after reading the second book, i knew i had to get out!.

I read CoC in 1996 and direct lost my believe in the organization.

Do you remember when you realised it was all bulls£&t

by moley in

i remember when my faith left me.

i used to enjoy meetings and used to participate but then all of a sudden i was finding myself bored shitless at meetings.

i was taken off the theocratic ministry school for not attending when i was due to give a talk and not long after did something naughty and got disfellowshiped.

Remember the 1995 generation change. After that I read the Ray Franz books. It ended my believe. Since 2008 faded with wife.

Leaders or liars

by ZindagiNaMilegiDobaara in

i was a thriving regular pioneer, doing all thr things wholeheartedly, had 16 bible studies, 7 attending meetings regularly, 11 magazine routes and 100's of rv's.

you can imagine i was always runnin out of literature and always a good list of books to order every month.

(not bragging,just stating facts.all this is wasted anyway).

When Gorby was literature servant 30 years ago at age 18, he reminded the PO of the congregation to pick up his huge stock of magazines. His respons was: "I picked up all ready". I answered "you did not!".

"I did!" he said. "You did not!!" Gorby replied.

End of that sunday I had to give my apologise to this local boss.

Crazy ass cart witnessing!

by Crazyguy in

i know i know we have all read about it but my mom goes out in service to this crazy cart witnessing crap.

so they go sit by the cart for a half hour then they get back into the car to warm up and the next two sisters take over for a half hours etc.

but then there is at least one brother siting in his car to watch and over see the sisters so he can be like their security.

I observed a rare situation. 2 charts 25 meter from each other at a station aquarel. At a given moment one chart was ready to leave. The jw's left without greating the other jw chart team.

Never seen such a behavior.

My fade. Phase 2.

by Beth Sarim in

about to move from ''irregular'' status to ''inactive''.. after 6 months of not handing a field service report since the end of june, i will be recognized as ''inactive''.

there could be 'questions' coming my way.. after having read ''crisis of conscience'' last spring, i could no longer ''actively'' preach or believe the wbts conscientiously.

i could no longer fake hours by putting the 'slip' in the field service box.

Gorbatchov

Remember that we were in 2008 in the same scenario.

At the meeting part "The activity of the congregation" were the numbers are given, the "inactive: 2" score was a directed link to Gorby and his lovely wife. It was a painfull moment.

We then moved to an other city, and came definitly under the radar.
