  a friend told me about this forum so i thought i'd check it out.

  i also post on jwr (jehovah's witness recovery) as disillusioned.

  it seems this forum had someone with that name already so i added the number 1.. i was born into the jw religion.

  The Final Nail in the Coffin of your JW Career

  by jookbeard in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i know there has been countless threads on this, some say the paedophile scandal, others say the blood ban, some say the conduct of their elders, others say the petty rules etc.

  but there is usually one thing that seals every one's fate, tips you over the edge,finishes you off.i was fading, very closely to full inactivity, off the book study list, and very sporadic meeting attendance, which took me to the very last time i set foot in my kingdumb hall, this is what happened;.

  it was the memorial of 1994, i hadn't set foot in the place for months, but thought a show at the memorial would keep the wife happy and the elders at bay for a bit longer, i drove to the hall being careful not to get there too early(the wife was already there and had saved me a seat) i walked up to my seat about mid way in the hall so a lot could see me, it was packed probably about 200 there, as i sat down ( about 3/4 mins to go) a sister in front of me turned around and said"we haven't seen you in a long time!

  People dont get disfellowshipped anymore

  by foolsparadise in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  they are announced as no longer being one of jehovahs witnesses.

  why then do people still shun them if they are not disfellowshipped.

  witnesses talk to non jws all the time, so we should be allowed to talk to members who are announced as no longer one of jehovahs witnesses.

  hi, after a couple of years of 'lurking' i thought i'd join up.

  i'm an ex-dub from vancouver island.

  i've been out of the org for aprox' 10 yrs, after being in it for about 28 years.. i post on "jehovahs witness recovery forum" as 'nightgoat', so i thought i'd wander over here & see how you guys are doing.. recently under went some major shunning from parents & siblings & retaliated with a barrage of 'reverse-shunning' in an effort to teach them how to treat my wife & i.. hope i can be of some encouragement to any, on this board.. my daughter has been a member here for 3 yrs.
