Welcome to this form. The more you look into the Jw's you will find many things. Question everything. You will find that elders are nothing more then " enforcers" and managers. You will live free, true authentic self, without that the elders.

Disfellowshipped & Returning
by tartan4588 ini am disfellowshipped and have been going back for well over a year now but because its not my 1st time it will be a bit longer before i will write my letter, would really love to find others in my area who are in the same situation as some many know its very isolating, not mixing with worldly people and not being allowed to be with family and friends can take its toll on a person, just wondering if there is anyone in perth wa that would like to get together for a coffee, movie ect .

Which of you readers are being shunned by their relatives / friends ?
by stan livedeath ina simple " me" if you dont want to say more--or a short explanation about who is shunning you and how long has this been going on.. i'll set the ball rolling: my daughter--her husband and children; my younger son --no contact from them for 40 years...because i left their religion.. (edit--i just noticed the typo in the header--if should be of ).

Our Family just one day stopped all Jw stuff all together. No notice, no phone call. Some shun us and others try to start conversations with us. But we are too busy with our businesses. If it's not work related there is no attention to it. I have 3 Jw's working for me and they know I'm all business. No Jw stuff.

No funeral
by road to nowhere ini have run across another jw death where the final wishes are for no service.
3rd or 4th instance.
another wanted a celebration of life which the elders squelched as far as i know.

I have talked to Mom about what she wants and she has made it clear , No Jw service. Some can come. But they don't run the program sort to speak. Seeing what Dad's was like, she was not impressed. -

They where on the edge of the chair as my uncle cross examined them with questions. For once they where in the hot seat. Watching them in their uncomfortable state as my uncle took over, was very comical and eye opening about them.

Vidiot- yes I would agree with that. If Watchtower would loose it's wonderful tax exempt status worldwide this would be a panic for them. Time will tell.

My Father's Funeral was a Joke. The first five minutes where about my Dad, then the remainder was all about What the Org can do. And if you use to be in the Org you need to hurry up and get back into the Org. There was alot of non Jw's at my Dad's service. And some of us where in a group outside talking that this was just a "Plug" for this group to get new members. And how very tacky it was to use a dead member's family to have to listen to that crap.

More and likely Watchtower will be an all TV online thing with occasional big conventions in major towns. And it will be pay to play church. Nickel and dime for everything. Donate, Donate will be just the tip of the iceberg. A full TV pay to view network.
