What is the most fun you can have as a JW without punishment or guilt?
by usualusername ini was just thinking of of the fun i had since leaving the jws and many things i have done since would fall foul of judicial action.. .
even inviting a female neighbour over for tea could have caused problems, which got me to thinking.
how much fun can you have as a witness guilt free?.

if you are an elder you can molest kids and get away with it so long as two people don't see you do it.

I to have a missing but NEVER found family member, very painful indeed! RIP Whitney!
by haboob48 ini am at such a loss for words, i have stared at this screen for about an hour not knowing how to address this.
i feel for the family of this young woman and any way you slice it, closure or no closure, it is the same.
i will however say that the said missing person had just went through a disfellowshipping and divorce, and there was a dispute over property.

It must be crushing NOT KNOWING if they are ok or not. I would not handle it well I fear.
Prayers to you, your lost one and family.

Elders, Ministerial Servants & Pioneers That Should Not Have Been Appointed or Should Not Have Remained In Their Positions
by minimus inwere there a lot of elders, ms's and pioneers that should not have had those titles?.

Elder in the now defunct Foothill Farms, CA congregation led double life. He screwed a couple of pioneers almost daily after service. He looked down at anyone making less than $40,000 per year (1980s dollars). But lived in a trailer in a trailer park. When a middle aged couple moved there from Canada he started screwing the wife. She left the hubby a note one day saying she had left him and not to look for her. He called the cops and looked for her. turned out she was living with the elder in his trailer. WITH HIS SICK WIFE in another room. He would comfort the husband at the hall. Hypocrite. He and the other guy's wife were both df'd but reinstated soon after....I heard he was an elder awhile after that.

I have a laundry list but I will do one.
Mrs. TOTHs uncle.
He packs a knife in one boot and a gun in his book bag
He drinks to excess
He bullies people into ignoring his drinking
He beats his wife
He thinks he's funny but really looks like a mindless buffoon with his repetative one syllable HA after he says something he thinks is funny
He invited the elders to a SHRIMP dinner to bribe an eldership out of them. When they declined he threatened to beat them up.
LOL

Shunning non-JWs and shunning in general
by jws inoften the topic of shunning comes up on this forum, how bad it is, unloving, etc.. my question is this.
even if you think disfellowshipping is bad, have you ever cut off ties and/or avoided anyone?
maybe not to the level of jws, but do you just try to avoid talking to some people or try to be in another part of the room at social events?

Sure I have. from direct shunning to blocking on facebook or even to teh extent of canceling an email address JUST so the person will type a long old retort just to be given a MESSAGE NOT DELIVERABLE report. LOL I feel crummy later and have to apologize.
