how do i make a long story short?

i am fully aware that if anyone in my area were to read this that they will know who i am.

i was disfellowshipped on january 28th 2010 after an "interview" about an evening of bowling with friends and family back in november 2009. i was among 4 who were disfellowshipped and 6 who were publicly reproved.

freedom

wrote a letter to family kinda laying out that i don't want to be apart of it anymore.

didn't specify issues, but now i'm getting the dumbest emails hounding me about how the borg is the annointed organization of god and his spirit.. it's not official yet.

i wonder if they'll disfellowship me even though i refuse to talk to them about religion.... feels really good though, to be free.. .

Hello fellow apostates

gumby here, thought i'd say hi to everyone.

my nutbag is still intact but it's a tough road to please others in order to keep a family.

really tough.. i'm glad this place is still here as it's a haven for you ex-es and a means to help others to see that when man (governing body) is a mediator between christ and oneself, it becomes a cult.. .

Pissing On JWs That Are Geuninely Searching Here

i just want to say something about witnesses who come here just to try to rebel rouse as opposed to jws that come here and are "searching" or are "active" members in the organization but are reading info on this site.. there's no reason to "beat down" witnesses just because they still go to meetings and we don't.

i've seen some insulting words against present elders and it's unnecessary and judgmental, in my honest opinion.

some jws like to spar with us on this board and it's a losing effort for them in reality.. who knows when or what will make someone actually leave the tentacles of the organization.

Hello JWN...excited to be a new member!

i stumbled on to this forum about a month ago...and i'm hooked!!

a tremendous amount of knowledge, wisdom, great debate, and lol humor, which is good for the soul.. i am not a jw, but the borg infected my family years ago, many are still trapped, and i have 2 big shot elders.. i became a huge opposer/apostate and had many a battle.

today we have learned to live in peace...live and let live.. recently, i decided to get up to date with everything jw... i often wonder why my family can't see or figure out the real truth.
