"I didn't think there must be "good apostates". Let's be honest with ourselves about this Borg. The people that are in and want to leave, leave because they are SICK of what's in that Borg."
"I really appreciated your wry sense of humour when you wrote in reference to the memorial gate crasher that he would be "Giving apostates a bad name quite frankly". Well, I nearly choked on my caviar with laughter when I read that statement. I mean, to a jw, an apostate could not have any more worse a name. To them the only way to improve your standing would be to die. "
Well, that's the official WT wiew of apostates. But, most JW's have family members that have bees DF'ed or DA'ed. In some cases, maybe a lot of cases some JW's have some regular contact with these people. Of course they will get another image of the so called apostates than the official one.
Furthermore, a lot of JW's will meet apostates at the web. It surprizes me that some people doesn't realize that their behavior towards these JWs can change ther wievs on apostates and wordly people. If a JW realizes that wordly people and apostates are friendly sophisticated people he/she could be more motivated seeking friendship outside and leave the organisation.
This crashing of the memorial just scares the doubting JWs back to the org....it's not productive.
