Got DF'd for leaving my wife and marrying someone out of the cult. I expected that but what I didn't expect was not being reinstated after a year. Had a member of the committee who had an axe to grind even though he had been disfellowshipped earlier for the same offense. I asked him to his face what the problem was and was told that because I was well liked and respected, they needed to make an example of me. After three years I got fed up and left. He recently died and I couldn't resist visiting him in the cemetery and pissing on his grave....

What is the Craziest Thing You Are Aware Of Someone Being Disfellowshipped For?
by Sea Breeze ini knew a lady who was disfellowshipped for 20 years for smoking.
she finally went back to the kh and since they couldn't find her paperwork, (all the former elders were dead) she was allowed back in without reinstatement.
no one even remembered her.

Is there one true religion? Not yet. Applying Jesus' identifying requirements, not one religion qualifies. Coming close doesn't count. Will we live to see the one true religion? I'm betting no. After 50 years in, I've come to 2 conclusions: everyone good comes back & time stands still for the dead. That's all you need to hang on to.

Will the faithful slave now allow birthdays..........
by BoogerMan in.....or ban jw sisters from using mascara??????
"the bible never refers to a servant of god celebrating a birthday.
this is not simply an oversight, for it does record two birthday celebrations by those not serving god.

The Bible NEVER mentions dogs unless it is in a disparaging way. So witnesses with dogs will need to be disfellowshipped. Also, the principle used not to show pride to any individual as in a birthday needs to doubly apply to an anniversary. All who celebrate their anniversaries need to be disfellowshipped as well.

Have ridden from NY to San Francisco & NY to Key West. Up and down the eastern seaboard. Down old Route 66 from Oklahoma City to Needles CA. Crossed into Mexico at Juarez. Own a 2015 Road Glide I bought new. I was 19 when I took my first trip to CA down Route 66. Took 10 pounds of marijuana seeds which I planted along the west bound lane. That was in 1971. If you find any of my crop please let me know.

Will You Still Wear A Mask Even If You Don’t Have To?
by minimus init seems that some people just aren’t ready to put those masks aside even if they are fully vaccinated!
some can’t help but think their brains aren’t ready for “normal”..

What’s Your View On Self Defense?
by minimus inif someone comes to you with a knife or a gun, would you defend yourself if you could?
if someone tried to beat you up , would you physically engage, run away or just try to talk the person out of beating you up or robbing you?
if you did have a gun to defend yourself would you shoot to kill or would you simply aim for the ankle to incapacitate the person?

I have a pistol permit & was attacked on my own property, The perp was 32, 220 lbs and coming at me as I stood in an open field. We were leaving for Hawaii on the weekend and I knew if I dropped this guy we were not going anywhere. As I couldn't outrun this guy, I took a beating. As he started to twist my head off, I got on my knees and reached in my pants pocket to pull out my Beretta. He was about 10 seconds away from me emptying the clip in his chest. All of a sudden, he stopped & walked away. It took the NYS Troopers & the sheriffs 5 minutes to get to me. I would have been dead for 4 minutes. He got a year in the mental institution. Five years later, he broke into his mother's home and beat her to death with a hammer. I always will regret not killing this guy.

I have a lot of fun as I have moved & they don't recognize me. I tell them I used to study with my aunt but had some differences of opinion with the religion. Of course they ask what differences. I start with the "generation" whereby Jesus view of a generation differed with theirs. I ask them if they are "'footstep" followers and if so why have they deviated from his teaching. After that, I go into birthdays, holidays, their flip flopping doctrines. By then, they're anxious to leave.....
