  Hi Grace,
  
  My name is Laura and a pioneer sister came and studied with me 10 years ago. I was baptized 3 years later. I really wish that a site like this had been available to me back then. My e-mail is [email protected] you can e-mail me if you'd like. I live in colorado.
  I'm glad your here. Please read Revelation 2:2. Your in a good place to learn all about the witnesses. Please also keep in my 2Tim 3:16. You'll save yourself years of regret if you remember its the BIBLE that is inspired and beneficial for teaching. Sometimes its easy to mistake advice or rules given to us by the Watchtower as being inspired.
  Welcome, I hope that you pray and really check things out.

  Hope things work out well for you.

  dear fellow witnesses of the true god jehovah,.

  with all the anti-watchtower information that has been spreading all over the world via the internet, it becomes all the.

  more important to stay close to jehovah and his organization.

  Thanks for your replys , everyone. Being shunned is still new to me and I'm surprised at how bad the sting is.
  Mad Apostate, yesterday I brought Crisis of Concience to work with me as well as some copies about shunning to give to another student whose fiance studies with witnesses. She took the book and had it lying out in the open all during class.
  While doing manicures, I answered her questions about shunning and odd beliefs that JW's have. EVERYONE got a witness. I agree with you all that I should kill her with kindness . Its difficult to do.
  Her expressions, on her face, are as if I were total trash. I would really love to get right in her face and tell her that I did nothing to be ashamed of and that she can wrinkle up her nose all she wants and that the feeling is mutual. For now I'll be nice. I also once had that same mind set.
  thanks everyone,

  I haven't been to keen on joining another church but this could be right up my alley. Anyone ever heard of it before ?

  Naeblis,

  I would LOVE it if elders came to give me a sheperding call !!!! My last meeting with the elders (to discuss my DA letter) was Sooooo enjoyable that I'd like to bring up other subjects that we didn't have time for before. It will never happen so its just wishful thinking.
  Do elders make sheparding calls on vocal apostates ???

  Thanks to Silent Lambs for posting the update on Erica. I have been away from my computer and I wondered what the out come was. I believe that awhile back it was mentioned that at another court hearing Erica didn't have many people sitting in the coutroom to support her. Did she have more support this time ? I'm so glad that he was found guilty.

  i'm just curious as to how many ex-witnesses here still believe in the god of the bible ?

  and how many, due to the societies teachings have given up on god all together ?

  That all depends on the day, the hour and sometimes the minute. I never doubted in my entire life that God existed even before I became a JW. It wasn't until I realized that I had been brainwashed that I started to really wonder. I think there is a God. I think the bible is inspired. I doubt I will ever again have that rock solid faith. I completely believed once before and I was wrong. Whatever I choose to believe in the future , I've decided not to invest so much of myself into. Its not worth it.
