The shunning has started and... I like it!

by oppostate in

so not having turned in a time-slip in a loooooooong time and making fewer and fewer meetings, and from time to time attending a local church service... the majority of local dubs are overtly shunning me.

there are those who i talk to and who visit our home from time to time, but this last meeting i went to hardly anyone made eye contact, when i greeted folks passing by me, they ignored me.

it actually felt good.. i was surprised at my reaction.

Who thought a statue of Vishnu or Buddha could actually be useful ...

Coincidentally, Siva is known as "the removal of obstacles" so maybe getting a statue of him would be quite apt. Those elders certainly are obstacles in my book.

It is nice not having to answer to those pesky elders. No longer looking over your shoulder when you want to buy a packet of gum with a cartoon devil on the packet.

Hey, i even bought "an idol" for my home. It's a great dub deterrent if they ever enter your home.

Stuck

by Cindy in

i feel so stuck.

i am married to a wonderful man.

i have been married for almost a decade and adore my husband.

pale.emperor

Hi Cindy

I would suggest a slow fade thereby keeping your old contacts and family. You could always turn up to conventions and memorials only like many successful fades do. Like FREDDO (above) says, dont mention apostate sites or anti-JW sites. There's great resources to old WT mags there you can quote from.

As time goes by your husband may wake up to it too but maybe not. You sound sincere and genuine and i wish you a happy future whatever happens.

Happy smiling faces as the world burns:

Dead bodies strewn around, raining fire and sulfur, people in terror and man in the bottom right corner dead and staring right at you!:

Someone you know daring to think for themselves and make their own choices? Make sure you snitch on your "friend" even though their personal life is non of your business:

To all former Elders – what are your thoughts

by Tallon in

if you were part of a judicial committee, and knowing what you know now, what was it like for you to sit on jc’s?

how did you feel if someone was reproved or df’d?

were you ever on a jc and you disagreed with someone being reproved or df’d and were overruled – how did you feel?

pale.emperor

I was never an elder, but an ex-elder I've got back in touch with since leaving told me he sat on a JC where they rushed through the whole thing and DF a person because they wanted to be home in time to watch the World Cup final.

The 1914 doctrine: How long it will last?

by opusdei1972 in

one hundred years have passed and the society still supports this lie, which of course, is the basis of their other lies, like that of the unfaithful and not discreet slave appointed in 1919. however, i wonder, what will happen after 50 years, when the overlapped generation will pass?.

and if you want, what will happen with this religion in 2100?, could it survive with the same lie??

?.

pale.emperor

My mother, brothers and sisters have all swallowed the overlapping generation crap. Unfortunately, by the time they die it'll be about 2050. By which time their kids will have no idea there even was a 1914 teaching what with them moving to digital books that they can "update" all the time. It'll be a new religion by then. As it is now since 1950. When, on the very rare occasion my family let me speak to them, and I tell my family of the stuff this society used to teach they don't believe it. I'm "mentally diseased" what do I know?

There'll be plenty more, but I really don't want to go trawling through their endless propaganda looking for more. Keep posting though guys, this is hilarious yet seriously messed up stuff. The Paradise Lost book had lines in it such as "people will be struck will a terrible disease, their eyes will rot in their sockets, worms will eat their tongues and their flesh will fall off their bones" - great stuff to tell your kids. It's still in the library in my old KM.

Crying baby about to be drowned by Jehovah because it's mummy wasn't a Jehovah worshipper:

Smiles all round and casual disinterest in a little girl watching the Egyptians drown to death:

Jesus blood running down his hands and arms as he writhes in agony:

Pre-flood man stabs another man to death and runs off with his bag and a bloody knife, while his woman and child cry:

And we were told to not read violent comic books???
