Well, at least you are not saying bye to us! We don't want to lose you. That is what I was afraid of when I read your topic line.

This really scares me as my daughter and 4 year old grandson go out door to door still. And now, a second accident. How tragic both of these stories are.

There is no easy way out, people are willing to die over the teachings and shun their closest relatives and friends in order to show obedience...I guess it is a cult!

Could the JWs sway you back...?
by new22day inop based on mr. freeze's topic - could attending the meetings/studying again sway any of you back to the org.
hearing the propaganda over and over again is pretty powerful i'm sure.
(i'm a non-jw, non-christian (no offense), stubborn as a bull and even i had moments of pause based on some of the doctrine (lasted 30 seconds) but i never had family/friends at stake or a background in this.

A double life
by raindrops ini am usually a lurker here.
i was disfellowshipped about 3 years ago.
my relationship with my family has never been the same.

I feel sorry for you in this situation and I welcome you wholeheartedly to the forum.
Yes, it isn't good for the child to see her mother live a double life. It will confuse her and mess her up. Maybe you could get reinstated and fade fast, stating that you are stumbled because some people are still not treating you nice at the Hall.
Best to you.

Does The Governing Body Fear Worldwide Exposure Of Their Delusional Bible Interpetations?
by frankiespeakin ini think in the deeper recesses of their minds they know that soon they will be loosing this battle and that some video on youtube will go viral bringing them shame and exposure.. the way i see it, this battle is just starting and is going to get much worse in the future, they are multiplying the number of people willing to expose them by their cruel practice of disfellowshipping used as a form of information control.. people who are waking up to the governing body's deceptions are growing in numbers all the time, and what starts out as a trickle of people leaving can become a flood in time which seems very likely.
as the numbers become greater and greater the more worried they should be, and this is seen in their more merciless treatment of those who no longer beleive their crap, they are willing to do what ever it takes to keep the rank and file in darkness and under their control.
it all spells desparation to me.. .

TTATT Billboards?
by Emery inhas anyone ever thought about paying for a billboard close to either an assembly hall or a kingdom hall during memorial season?
for instance i would probably pay for a billboard for a week or 2 displaying jwfacts.com on the highway or a nearby road that witnesses travel on heavily.
has anyone ever tried something like this?.

This is a wonderful idea. Wish I had the money, I would put one up right by my old Hall.
