Faders Needing a Great One Liner

by Solzhenitsyn in

so our family fade is well under way.

we changed congregations as regular attenders and left in good standing with those giving hugs and kisses simply knowing we "needed a change".

we moved to a neighboring congregation that is out of our original region knowing we would see no one and the two boe's wouldn't really have immediate dealings.

Conversation with my Dad today concerning the Leah Remini show

by joe134cd in

joe : i don’t quite know how to tell you this dad.

dad : what daughter .

joe : dont get mad or offensive, but there was a documentary that aired a few nights ago on prime time tv in the usa concerning the jws, and there was some very nasty stuff mentioned, and it certainly wasn’t positive toward the organisation.

Normalfulla

Joe... Your dad sounds like my dad, the blatant refusal to confront information that contrasts his own understanding of how things are... This is the problem with the portion of mankind that hold themselves to religious ideologies.

Mentally diseased ANOINTED!

by Normalfulla in

my aunt is a super uber jw, albeit a little more delusional than the standard issue jw.

she has 4 kids all who are out and never baptised, she's a widow now and sold the family home and has bought a new place and has plenty of cash in the bank.

my cousins are all very concerned because their mum has a new friend whos "anointed" and says jehovah has spoken to her and she will survive armageddon and so will her kids if she sticks close.. she has been paying out for holidays and vehicle repairs for this anointed sister and her extended family and my cousins are alarmed at whats going on and can see the situation for what it is.

Holla Mike! Nuts is right bud, keep up yr fantastic work! , they are waiting until this anointed sister has a talking to this coming Wednesday and then they will know what if anything is being done of this. I told him(my cousin) to not be fobbed off just because hes not a witness... , demand to talk to the elders who dealt with her to discuss what they know with his concerns. so we'll see

Increase in Second Sealings for the Anointed?

by Nevuela in

the other day i heard my anointed roommate on the phone, discussing something called the "second sealing".

i heard her say that most anointed people only receive it shortly before death, if they receive it at all.

she went on to say that she has been hearing about several other anointed people receiving theirs recently and not dying afterward.

Just another looney tune

I told them that no serious jw would believe that, especially given Jehovah had told this sister needs to be on a diet of nuts and coconut milk?

I offered to ring an elder in her hall to make them aware of the situation.

So i called a long time father figure elder ive known most of my life (he came to see me on my way out to talk some sense into me but... No of course)

I explained that Aunts kids were concerned about this anointed sister... He interrupted and said dont worry we're onto it... and i said? Dont you want to hear what their concerns are? He said ok go ahead... He could hardly give me the time of day and was short and not friendly... Nice one

So yeah a story of a looney basically who is exploiting a gullible older lady and how dare an Apostate ring up telling the elders what to do!

Anyone have any looney anointed experiences?

1975—Were You Affected By What 1975 Was Supposed to Bring?

by minimus in

jw
friends

for years , we were told to wait until 1975!.

the end was coming and we better be ready—or else!.

were you around during this “momentous “ time??

Normalfulla

I was also a twinkle in my dads stupid pioneer eye... Just today we talked of 1975 (hes still an avid jw beliver) and he said he thought the end was coming in 75 but afterwards it was a great sifting work, where it sorted out the right hearted ones from those serving to a date..

I almost puked. I said... dont u think there were sincere people who smelled a rat and BS and thats why they left ? I pointed out luke 21.8 and said the jw fit the bill for this scripture and there was tumbleweed... What a dumbass.. Sorry dad

So...I did a thing! I sent an email about JW stuff that got read out on a popular podcast!

by stuckinarut2 in

hey all!.

so, we are all aware of the appalling wt study article from a few weeks back called "do you have the facts?".

https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/watchtower-study-august-2018/do-you-have-facts/.

Normalfulla

Nice to hear they recognise the familiar attempts to control their patrons thinking, albeit from a different brand! Same ingredients tho...

I have fantasies of some Russian hacker, hacking the breaking news section or jw. (B)org and inserting actual relevant to jw news! Imagine the complaints to the authorities....! We were hacked and they were smearing our name with truth and facts... Sheesh sorry guys we'll see what we can do.. cue eye roll from the authorities

Does Disfellowshipping only prohibit spiritual contact with a DF family member or friend?

by Isambard Crater in

all through my life, now in my 40's, i've seen df people get completely shunned by family and friends, but an ex elder showed me the stfog book that says it's just spiritual contact that stops.

so what's the crack?

i'm mega confused, as i want to go p.o.m.o or ideally da but don't want to loose family..

Normalfulla

If you are faded... You can expect mostly soft to hard core shunning. Depending on the type of conditional friends you have
