In the 1960's watchtower said "let the dead bury the dead!"
In other words, if your family members were not jw's ....
abandon them to the other "worldlies"!
Nice guys huh?

Full-time service is MORE IMPORTANT than taking care of elderly parents!!! It says so in the Sept 2014 WT
by EndofMysteries inparagraph 20 out of the article in the sept 2014 study wt about fulltime service says this.... .
"full-time servants age, and so do their parents.
when parents are witnesses, likely their fondest wish is for their children to stay in their assignments.

Goodbye JW net
by snare&racket inforgive me for indulging in a goodbye but it would feel wrong not to,.
i hope the discussions and atmosphere here do not change for it is a bubbling brew of doubt, bravery and sincere hunger for answers.
these are healthy ingrediants for humans and especially for a jehovah's witness.. this forum offers not just the ability to ask without consequence, but it also offers the means to be real.

My First Year of Posting and How I Have Changed
by James Jackson ini lurked for 2 years on this site before i joined in july 2013. what a roller coaster ride it has been.. first of all, i was a very active jw for those unfamilar with my story having been a longtime elder(21 years), regular pioneer (14 years), convention & assembly speaker, etc.
i am still an active witness because i am older now, with close to 40 years in the borg with some longtime friends.
boy how i have changed!

James Jackson ...... enjoyed your rant, were there
overtones of grieving ?.........or is that just me.
This whole process is a bit like having a bucket of
cold water dropped over your head!!!
.
During my last few years ...the thought of actually
inviting an 'interested person' to the meeting, was
a huge source of frustration for me. As single woman
I felt pretty much ignored. So I just couldn't imagine
subjecting a stranger to this depressing situation and
calling it 'gods happy people', with love so great they
wouldn't even be invited out for a cup of coffee!!!
.
Because life at the KH for me was so awful...the house
of cards came down very quickly...........
For someone else who has a goodbuddy or partner at
their side and a lot of 'pull' in the congregation their
comfort level at the meetings would probably keep
them sitting in their places a bit longer.
.
Love that you are here James Jackson. I wish you
and your wife the happiness & the freedom that you so
deserve.

They lied and sent me out to preach those lies for
50 years!
They said my mother would not go through menopause
and neither would I.
My mother now has died of old age and my daughters
have gone through menopause and all the grandchildren
are older than I was, when I got baptized!
They are still lying today & twisting scripture along
with all that crazy shit, trying to make it sound OK!!!
Have a listen to how they are doing this, as this video
talks about the NEW BOOK that "explains away" all their
BS!
