  DA'd or DF'd -- why more being DA'd

  by cyberguy in

  1. watchtower

  from a number of posts on this board it appears that many are being da'd vs. df'd!

  is it for legal reasons, from the watchtower's perspective?

  anyway, when a person is da'd, they usually don't get an opportunity to defend their position.

  Dear Simon,

  Things have altered I believe yet again. In our case we just gave all our documentation to the local elders on WT/UN, and asked for an explanation. There was no judicial meeting just an announcement to the KH to say that we have DA ourselves.Same announcement made re: us to another KH two weeks later. In same period of time our 'return visits' were called on and 'told' they must not talk to us!! Unbelieveable but true.

  I urge You /Theocratic Warfare

  i strongly urge you to look at and download the document called "lying in court - theocratic warfare strategy" - over at freeminds.org.

  this is a lengthy and careful analysis of the watchtower society's practice of .

  deliberate lying to the public - and in courtrooms.

  Dear Mr. Bergman,

  I am in touch with a reporter in Sydney who I believe would be very interested in your research of the WT re lying to the authorities, that is of course if she already knows about it. Please contact me if interested. Regards.

  cyberguy. I don't know what else to say really. After twelve months research on the WT/UN we gave all copies of our documentation to our local elders. Two elders visited us and told us that they had sent the documents to the Society in Sydney and the reply that they had got satisfied them. We asked to see the letter but was refused. Next thing an announcement was made at our local KH to say that we had disassociated ourselves. This was untrue. Two weeks later the same announcement was made at another KH. In the same period of time two elders made calls in person to our return visits( at least the ones they knew about) now see above first post. That's it folks!!

  After giving the 'elders' all copies regarding WT?UN we were disassociated by them and this was announced in two congregations. They then proceeded to go around all our return visits and 'told them' they must not talk to us. Needless to say some of the replies they got I cannot and will not repeat.These folks kindly told us at once when they had been visited. None of them knew each other to the best of my knowledge. So yes I believe you, they appear to be going mad!!!

All anyone has to do out there is object to the affliation of the WT and the UN and then you will be public enemy No.3. We are Number 1 and 2.

  I have written to the Chief Librarian of the U.N. and she told us that the critieria for the N.G.O's have not changed to her knowledge from 1985 when she first became the Chief until the present time. However, since September 11th the rules for obtaining a libary card changed for obvious reasons.
