JWOP~ So true! Anything and everything to support the matrix of lies
Cupcake(can I call you that, lol?)~ That's good!!
Recently an exchange of good ol' fashioned letters, via snail mail, was made between my mother and I. She wrote a 1 pager. It was actually kind and had heart, even if unintentionally condescending. Damn. I love my family. It's the religion, not the individuals in it that are a big fat lie. Make this religion go away...just make it go away..
i have been out of commission for several weeks.
back around the first of the year i developed an infection in my left foot.
due to diabetes and poor circulation the doctors were unable to save my foot and so i received a below the knee amputation.

ps~ I don't know what to say, just felt for you. Hope that means something in some small way.

pot calling the kettle black?.
How ironic. Big bullies making a skit about how to react to bullies.
'you may be bullied for what you believe in' ... 'name-calling...excluding people, starting rumours' hmmmmm
HYPOCRITES
overwhelming support for the new light!.

rocketman~ That was funny and sad! I've often wondered that very thing. My family didn't even know I'd moved states till months later. I could have been rotting in a basement somewhere while they were merrily singing "We must have the Faith"

nonjwspouse~ they need some new material, right?
Steve C~ Same here. The shunning aspect is only the tip of the iceberg.
If there is something new regarding how to treat us vile creatures, I can't imagine what it could be...how much more severe it could possibly get than it already is.
If they already wont' talk to us, be there for us in an hour of need, remove us from their wills...what's left?

17 Disfellowshipping is another type of discipline from Jehovah. It protects the congregation from a bad influence and can play a role in the sinner’s recovery. (1 Cor. 5:6, 7, 11) Robert was disfellowshipped for nearly 16 years, during which time his parents and siblings firmly and loyally applied the direction in God’s Word to quit mixing in company with wrongdoers, not even greeting such ones. Robert has been reinstated for some years now and is progressing well spiritually. When asked what moved him to return to Jehovah and His people after such a long time, he replied that the stand that his family took affected him. “Had my family associated with me even a little, say to check up on me, that small dose of association would have satisfied me and likely not allowed my desire for association to be a motivating factor to return to God.” ~~~~w13 6/15 pp.24-28 (Bold, mine)
Thanks a lot "Robert"...for basically saying 'thank you guys for shunning me those 16 years, your abusive treatment of me is what made me want to come back..and I'm so grateful. What a horrible wrongdoer/sinner/bad influlence I was...but now I have returned to God all because I was treated as a leper.' What a bunch of malarkey!
About my original post~ I saw a mention on a thread of new treatment of df'd family members....I don't think this is it...if there is something I missed, please share, I'm curious...
