Love hearing from you guys from all over the globe, but here in NY we are unfamiliar with the term "Wanker". This may seem ironic, as, I'm sure the GB are all "Wankers".

Hi DR;
Similar story; same outcome. Married during the scare of 75. Figured I'd learn to love my wife in Paradise. Same path; elder, RBC member, on most committees. Was well known & liked. Gave DC talks. After 34 yrs. of a bad marriage, met the love of my life. Not a Witness. Got divorced & disfellowshipped. Was on my way back in actually. Elders on the JC were close friends. One really wanted to make an example of me & dragged out the reinstatement for 3 yrs. Got disgusted & went looking for the truth. Read C of C. Knew some of the GB personally. Realized they made the Scribes & Pharisees look like choir boys. Been out 7 yrs. Have a great life. We travel. Life is good. Yours will be too. My advice to all; Live Well.....Enjoy Life.

Was an elder in upstate NY; always had a mustache. Never was a problem with anyone.

Final post I can't come to this forum anymore!
by hoser ini have come to the conclusion that posting here and visiting this site is not healthy for me anymore.
i just get angry and upset when i read all the stories of injustice and corruption that go on in the jehovahs witness religion.
they are true no doubt, as i have personally experienced many injustices and abuses in my life from being a witness.

by DATA-DOG inlook...i am not an atheist.

Interesting assumption V7. So God is selective in who he blesses with his miracles. That violates a cardinal quality of God; that of love. It would be blatantly unloving to take care of a bad back while thousands of others, who have the same trust in God are ignored.

Hi to all; Well I walked into the funeral home & it was packed with my son-in-law's family. I looked around but didn't see either my daughter or grandkids. As it was early, I wasn't even sure they were there. I talked briefly to my son-in-law & while talking, my daughter came out of a side room with my grandkids. She aimed them in my direction but made no attempt to approach me. My grandkids came over smiling. They said nothing. My son-in-law introduced me to them by my first name. They stood for just seconds, then drifted away. It was indeed short but nice to see them. I take some comfort in knowing they are smart kids. They will grow up, go to college, realize the lies & hypocrisy and then come to meet their grandfather. In the meantime, as I have always said to all & especially to myself; Live Well.......Enjoy Life.

My oldest daughter is still in the cult. I haven't seen my grandchildren in 5 yrs. My son-in-law's father died this week & the funeral is today. I'm going out of respect for him (he's not a Witness) & for a chance to see my grandkids. Wish me luck. I'll let you all know how this turns out. (It's ironic I have to wait for someone to die. I feel like a vulture.)

Do You Try To Avoid The Witnesses When You See Them?
by minimus ini think i typically don't want to be either love bombed or questioned.
i happen to see jws a lot while visiting my mom.
they don't go there with me, which works well for all concerned..

I was at my wife's uncle's home in Philly when 2 approached me. I told them I had studied many religions & found the JW's interesting but having a few flaws in their beliefs. I had a great time debating birthdays, 1914, meaning of a generation & other topics. The older of the 2 just never left the corporate mentality, but the 20 yr. old was a different story. He never said a word, but I could see him leaving with a whole new perspective. If you ever get the chance, try reverse witnessing especially with young adults. Who knows, you may even save a life.
