hi everyone, a bit of an update here on my continuing disaster of a situation.. (refer to my previous posts for the full story) my mom met with me yesterday for dinner, it was nice.. however, she brought up the fact that because i live with my boyfriend and how everything has gone down, i will be disfellowshipped.. i think the elders basically have enough proof of this.. due to the anonymous tipper (still have no clue who it was, i live in another town 100's of miles away from my old congregation territory), and my mom telling them.
i'm not sure when they will announce it, or if they will contact me prior.. at this point i feel so emotionally dead i don't care- on the other hand, i don't want to be disfellowshipped because i do not want to loose a relationship with my mom.
that is the whole reason i tried fading out.. .
The hardest thing i have yet to come to terms with regarding my DF is similar to what I fear for your situation.
The day before my DF my mother would talk to me, the day after she wouldn't. To clarify, she knew what was going on in my life.
I have a hard time forgiving her for that. It's simply fear of man (the org), not fear of god. In my case it was simply celebrating holidays, basically, apostasy, but waiting until the DF to cease contact.
i know i can't.
if it helps, i'm on a public school's wifi:.

Maybe you have some spyware on your computer?
so i can't stomach going to the jw site, much less spell the site completely.
but, here is my question....do you think they will announce on the site that they sold the brooklyn building for $700 million?
my bet is no!.

or the love of the world might involve efforts to attain “great things,” such as through the pursuit of higher education.
reading the comment made by sir82, reminds me when I questioned the stance on education while still in it hurt my head, because so many things you can do with a education open up opportunities that could be used for the org. Teaching or engineering for example, you could get a job in just about any country you wanted. when I was younger the org was growing in Japan by leaps and bounds, if you taught english you could get a job very easy.
yet they choose to talk us out of school, then ask for people with degrees to come to bethel and work on the new computer system.
according to jwstudy.com,some jw changed the date of jerusalem's fallfrom 597 to 607.and erased all the original writings and re-written the page of the wikipedia so that wikipedia matches the watchtower’s doctrine.chech this out.. https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%e3%83%90%e3%83%93%e3%83%ad%e3%83%b3%e6%8d%95%e5%9b%9a.

hey all,.
almost finished with a "little free library" to set up in front of the house and was wondering if anyone else has put one of these up?
got to thinking that it may get filled up with my tots fav periodicals, watchtower and awake.. anyone else had any experience with this?
if you keep an eye on it you could stem the flow of literature AKA "trash".
Have you heard the phrase HoneyPot? i'm sure there are other uses, but in the IT world, it is a server purposely setup to allow hackers in, then they are traced or monitored.
(i never was a dub).. this is something which has intrigued me for a while.
i don't know whether it's dub-speak, or us-speak.. it's the use of the word 'ones' as in 'interested ones', 'worldly ones', 'disfellowshipped ones' and so on and so on.. in the 'normal world' we would probably use the word 'people'.. thoughts?.
