One of My BIGGEST Regrets as a JW Was How I Accepted Dealing With Disfellowsipped Ones

looking back at it, it was shameful to treat human beings worse than a way we would treat a dog!

ignore people, treat them as dead...,it's so awful.

Alerts etc
by Xanthippe in
1. forum
2. suggestions
i wonder if it's possible for those of us who've been out decades to have alerts or alternatively see a grouping of threads in a folder or something similar if something actually happens of interest in the borg.. i'm not really interested in the day to day stuff about this cult but i would like to know if anything drastically changes as my siblings and their kids are still trapped.

i don't know anything about creating the code for forums so i don't know what is possible but if you don't ask you don't get.

this is not a criticism it's just time for me to move on and just drop in occasionally..

she was just supposed to check heartbeats on the two little ones and they were going strong!

but because she had extra time and she can be quite anal about her work (which is a good thing) she decided to take some measurements.

what is it with this pair?

why do they have to constantly have a bitch about guys like john cedars?

a very recent video of them shows them calling him a 'village idiot' and making other disparaging claims.

dubs in a pro-jw forum are talking about the earthquake in kamchatka russia.

they are speculating that this is jehovah's warning to putin.

what kind of twisted logic is this?.

wednesday, march 29.

if a man takes a false step before he is aware of it, you who have spiritual qualifications try to readjust such a man in a spirit of mildness.—gal.

Latest elders meeting during circuit visit
by Saltheart Foamfollower in

2. beliefs
for those not aware:- during the circuit visit there is a meeting with elders &ministerial servants based on an outline.

the mss are dismissed then local matters (eg new elders, meeting attendance etc) are discussed.

recently there has also been a part of the outline just for elders - one year it was about stopping anyone dressing in a "gender blurring" way from going on the ministry.. the latest visit has a section of the outline for elders.
