They require new members to remove themselves from church congregation lists officially. So if you want closure for whatever purpose do the same to them. Do it for yourself. Finish it well.
Peace to you.

gonna write my annulment letter
by QueenWitch ini know it may not mean anything to the boys in brooklyn but it's therapeutic.
thinking of sending in on the anniversary of my dunking, may 30.. i hereby declare my baptism null and void on the primary grounds that i took this action before i reached the legal age of consent.
secondary grounds include lack of full disclosure of the terms involved.

My terminally ill friend will read this; please offer your love and support.
by compound complex indear friends:.
forty-five years ago i was out in service with an elder, and we came upon a house where the owners kindly received us.
this was not so unusual as the family was jehovah's witnesses.

Thought Control (A simple test for JW's)
by TD inin george orwell's novel 'nineteen eighty-four' the capitulation of the principal protagonist is portrayed in his willingness to assent to the proposition that two and two make five.
once he had denied objective reality, his mental conquest was complete and he was no longer truly the master of his own mind.
nineteen eighty-four is in many ways, a very depressing read.. a charge commonly leveled at jehovah's witnesses is that the type of mind control envisioned by orwell has been and continues to be used on them.

I remember (40+) years ago a couple who made no bones about being registered , They felt that they got notices about (homeowners) property issues etc that they were interested in. They didn't vote (as far as anyone knew) but were on the rolls. They were prominent in the area.

If you do any of those things you will be counselled regarding being weak in the "truth" and may be marked as such.
