  I had been listening to the talk for 19 years by the time I finally got baptized, so I don't remember mine specifically.

  you can't help but feel sympathy for these guys.

  some of the things they did will have been horrendous, but they are paying their dues to society through their incarceration.. what they don't deserve is to become mentally imprisoned to a damaging cult.. .

  have a local needs on apostasy, have everyone shun you, have no shepherding calls since you left for over a year, and now a jc tomorrow evening????????.

  spoke to branch committee as well as co and they said to go and if we were treated unfairly then to call the co. don't get it.

  the co would have known about the local needs talk on apostasy and says if we were treated unfairly to call him.

  Label, Something that happened to me that sounds familer.

  In 4 years we have had a visit twice, never were formal, both were before the CO visit.

  Both times were showing up on a Sat unannounced. No prior phone call.

  Both times we had a short small-talk discussion. Both times my wife said we were going to meetings at another congreations. (not true)

  Yet, these same elders keep telling my family that I am rejecting their help and refusing to meet with them.

  i think my mother has lost it.

  i really do and i am in fear that she is literally losing touch with reality to some degree.. even my father is telling me that her responses to me are growing weirded:.

  the scriptures tell us that we can be wrathful.......but don't sin.

  someone else owned the house. She said that is not the same as a personal item

  Sounds like something my dad would say. He has burned furniture before, but never any of the expensive antiques he collected.
