DA'ing coming up, to speak out now or not?
by meat pie inhi there, i know its up to me in the end, but just wondering, what would most of you do?
my da'ing could be tonight, should i take the opportunity (before they can no longer speak to me ) to tell a few jw's that i am being da'd for telling the truth, or not to bother.
does it matter anyway.

Rico,
I'm sorry for your family's loss.
I'm glad you are no longer in a high control group.
Welcome to the forum and hope you can find some fellow understanding on what you are going through. The healing/grieving process takes time. Give yourself lots of time.
Hugs,
Joy

After Zev brought this info to our attention here on JWD, I shared it with my JW brother. He said he noticed since the WT withdrew their NGO status that the little "Watching the World" statements about the UN quit. I quess they were using that area of the magazine to "promote" good things about the UN, thus in compliance with their NGO status.

yes, but don't want to wake those memory cells. They are doing quite nicely not bothering me anymore.
BTW, did you know, the songs in the songbook were in Alphabetical order. The first word of the song is what they went by, not the titles. (silly, nonsense, info, but thought you would like to know)
Joy (can't believe I learned piano just to play those silly songs class)

hey (((Shirley)))
long time, gal!
One question........
.goes for the crack
....what do you guys do during your meetings over there???
I understand that man maybe lonely and want association, but I never heard that phrase before.
I don't have an answer for you about talking to your JW/partime/friend but don't we all wake up at our time schedule? You may want to ring her and tell her she's not responsible for whatever announcement the elders give (the elders are). And since you don't recongize the silly authority the WTBTs thinks it has over you, then whatever silly announcement they make is their silly rules.
Anyway, hope all is well with you and your family.
Hugs,
Joy

Mindless Meetings and Bored Dubs
by TheListener in"we'd like to excuse those that have talks in the second school, and those that would like to listen.".
alright, so i am sitting at the meeting last week and i hear that very typical repetitive announcement.
i start to look around and i realize that it is the same people every week who go to the back to sit in the second school.

I've found it helpful to cut a few pages out of IN SEARCH OF CHRISTIAN FREEDOM & read them during the meeting.
well, I just covered the book with a bible cover from walmart and read it during the meetings. Same with CoC. No one really pays attention to ya at the meetings. They are all worried about what they are going to say to impress everyone else at the meetings.
