The murmuring phase is the beginning of an ex-JWs progression towards fading.
by Stand for Pure Worship ini suppose part of the fascination i have with this board is, the exotic nature of those making up the member population.
i say exotic because, as you yourselves will agree with, folks such as yourselves don't hang around the christian congregation for long upon making the decision that truth is not for you.
(rom 1:25) this "fading" thing spoken of here likely plays a role into why christians such as me find the average ex-jw to be a bit fascinating.

One of the big issues from Bethel living was the restriction on unapproved music albums.
Does the music you enjoy really say whether you're a spiritual person or not?
Did Jesus listen to middle eastern belly dancing music or did he condemn it?
I dunno, what does the fox say?

Talking to a JW about Jesus crucifixion and resurrection goes pretty much the same way.

Nathan Knorr had issues about men's penises, he'd go on ranting about masturbation and not touching one's willey while going pee, and certainly not looking sideways if you were at the urinals, that could lead to homosexual ideas. Also he was very insensitive of other's views, feelings and knowledge.
In CoC you can find out how Knorr treated Ed Dunlap (Gilead Instructor) very badly when Ed had a nerve problem in the face and side of his head that was quite painful, Knorr transferred him to work in the printery which acerbated the pains.

Tell them you aren't interested in their uninvited visits.
As a matter of fact you think they're stalking you and you're going to seek legal counsel and put a restraining order against them.
If they dare do any judicial action concerning this you and your lawyer are going to view it as retribution against saying NO to their uninvited and unwanted advances.
If they even contact you one more time you're going to have your lawyer write Bethel and tell them to rein in their appointed men who are stalking and harassing you or else you'll include them in your lawsuit against them.

A mole within the FDS!
by braincleaned init has been now verified that there was a traitor within the gb!.
an insider had the courage and audacity to verify this, taking the risk of being kicked out of bethel, with a cross carved on his forehead.. it became apparent that all the men of the gb where naturally bald, even when some tried to hide it with a clever and stylistic comb-over.
but there was some suspicion that pierce and losch were not true bald men.

braincleaned you asked what kind of a-hole?
Well you can start with a kissing introduction to my puckery round one down back.
Kiss, kiss, my braincleaned bigot.
I don't like stinking jokes about accents!
I have an accent and I'm proud of it.
Haters of accents are ignorant of their own accents!
Bunch of stinking not-funny haters!

Some may be driven to go back just to get away from minimus' comments!
Well, on my behalf I'd say that I've been invited to an apostasy judicial committee and threatened legal action.
Haven't heard back from the "elduhs" since.
Haven't been to a meeting in a month although I promised my wife I'd take her to the Special Day and so I will.
JWN/JWD discussions aren't 100% endearingly welcoming of people who are struggling with the cult we know and hate.
There's a lot of hate-class folks and "grow a pair" types on here who would quickly tell you it ain't right to stay in a cult when you know "Da Troof!"
But da troof is that each person has to live their own lives.
For me, my wife's happiness is more important than telling the elders where to stick their mis-applied scripture references.
