One of my still in relatives was on zoom and was called out for having a glass of orange juice. From then on he turns his camera off. I think he is turning pimo with the questions he is asking.

A Good Example of entitlement was when my mom ran a bakery in the States a pioneer sister came into the bakery an said she was here for her bread and since she is a pioneer and we " have money" we should give her bread. My mom was really disappointed by this. The Pioneer did not get any bread.

With "JW Land" being built their huge media center and theme park. It would not surprise me that they would go to totally online/ pay to view mode. Except the Watchtower has one small ( I mean) large problem, No one, and I mean no one in their right mind will sign up for JW TV ! Not the general public and they are loosing members. This is an attempt for a money grab which will fail, big time.

How About.....YOU Doing the Shunning?
by titch inhello, folks: about a month ago, stan livedeath started a post about.
how many of the readers here on the site have been or are now being shunned by friends/relatives?
well, let's turn that around a little bit: how many of the readers here have purposely shunned a witness, when they encountered them?

I don't follow their rules, I live my own life.
Who I shun is up to me.

During that time my Dad was with Shell Oil Co. We never got into the 75 crap like everyone else did, we were considered spiritually weak. I can recall a brother selling his business then regretting it and hitting my father up for money to open a new business. Which my father told him to pound sand.

I know of one family that owned a house and had a business and sold everything to jump onto the 75 bandwagon. 75 came and went and I think they were so disappointed that they quit out right the Jw stuff. I have seen countless Jw's buy into this. Give up career, money and health for what? Bullshit! Just Benefits Watchtower!

New rules for inactive ones?
by Lynnie inhave the rules changed as far as disfellowshipping inactive ones when it's clear they are engaged in "wrongdoing?".
i have a cousin in seattle who was disfellowshipped about 3 years ago or so and then went through the process of being reinstated (took only 6 months) and then proceeded to fade and do nothing regarding the jw's .
fast forward to today and now she's had a baby out of wedlock and the uber jw elder father and mother are all on board somehow.

Don't forget the "Green Handshakes " in the congregation as well. Since my father was an oil exce he was giving the Brothers money and we where treated like kings. That all changed when my father was asked for more favors.

How get out of watchtower?
by Hellothere inhow do you get out of watchtower?
am i supposed to write letter to bethel or local congregation telling them i don't want to be a jw anymore?

Fading is the Best option. They don't need a reason or a letter. They will twist things no matter what reason you give. Just stop all activity. Don't give any reason and don't talk to them.

Longhairgal- This young brother interested in one on of my sisters was such a brown nose to my parents and me being the older brother. He would not last long in our family. We work from sun up to sun down till 2am sometimes. Everyone works. We play hard too. But yes if we were average the Jw's would have Nothing to do with us.
