so my situation is changing and i am trying to figure out the best way for me to handle this.
i am an unbaptized publisher married to a dub who was inactive when we met and when we married and during the course of our marriage, and just went back active a year and a half ago.
he is a full believing dub.
You re not baptised. they have no power over you but what you allow them to have.
Tell your study conductor this is your last study, or that was my last study whichever suits.
Quit going to meetings and obviously service. No need to fade, just quit.
Enjoy the rest of your life cult free (apart from the crazyness that comes being married to a witless)...
Nice, is that the same mug or two?

re: notification of disfellowshipping or disassociation.
dear brothers:.
I think the authorities need copies of this sort of thing so they can see the methods used to duck and dive...
when...... 1) we follow christ example not the gb.
2) stop df'ing those for challenging current or past doctrine and allow us to use our god given gift of reason and free wil.
sure kick out the scumbags even the lions club have rules for membership, but not those who just use their brains and consience.. 3) get rid of the nonsensical blood teaching that has cost the lives of thousands and beg god for forgiveness.
Pin that on the notice board at your hall and see how it works out for you.

As said already: plausible deniability.
i'm new around here, but i've been browsing the site the last few days in hopes of finding the answer to the situation i've been going through, so hopefully you can help me.
i met this girl in highschool, but never really spoke with her until about a year after i graduated.
she's three years younger (however it's legal where i'm from, don't fret) and still a teenager.
Show her this thread (yes really do) and see how it plays out then.
That will be your answer.
been gone a while, i havent posted a topic here for since 2004, but remembered this story this morning, so i thought id make a post.
dungy idols!
ring a bell with you?
Given all the dumbing down the dubs have experienced over the past decade or so it's no wonder they have to change "dungy" to "disgusting" as most of the current generation wouldnt have a clue otherwise.
Shit or shitty would have been a bolder step and one in the correct direction.
apologies if this has been raised already (i don't check in to the board all that often) but can anyone make head or tail of this from the latest watchtower (study edition):.
a former atheist confessed: the creation convinces me that god wants mankind to enjoy life and therefore he will not allow suffering to go on forever.
also, as the world descends further into ungodliness, jehovahs people are progressing in faith, zeal, and love.
the babylonians believed that the gods were immortal then they had offspring that were demigods and then they had humans so the first two of the list are different than the genesis writer wrote in chapter 5. this is how the names are translated.. babylonian kings list, genesis chapter 5.
1. aruru=a god 1. adam=man.
2. adapa= demigod 2. seth=gift of god.
Being suckers for good story around the campfire has its downsides.... people may start to really believe that shit.
