Yes, the stigma of once a sinner always a sinner will stick with you for quite some time, maybe even forever.
That is unless you move far away where no one knows about your past. (And if you do this don't be stupid enough to tell anyone either.)

Reinstatement in the kingdom hall means that you'll still be shunned by all for a long time = decades!
by witchtowerwitch indon't count on too much mercy my fine featherd friends,,,hehehe,,,lol...!after your reinstated,it will take 20 to 30 years before the dubs start to forget your sorted past.....and you all know this right?so why bother crawling back with you little tail between your legs,so a bunch of glorious elders can save face before the rank and file?no one should be df okay,as this was not the teachings of jesus,only paul who wrote this stuff,but could some wacko in the last 2000 years have inserted this satanic practice into the scriptures to control the masses and manipulate them?the apostle paul wrote too many contradictions in his writings,so why trust in anything that he wrote about?why trust the gb in hq/nyc as to their writings in these past 130 years,since everything that they wrote about is all lies,,,hehehe lol...!who is going to disfellowship them in the hq department for being liars?maybe jehovah will do it in his own due time?.

Aug 12 Awake: Students who cheat are like a fake brand-name
by Listener inthis comment was found in the august, 2012 awake.
students who cheat are like a fake brand-namewristwatch that only looks good.
this seems a rather odd thing to say considering jws should not be materialistic.. generally most fake brands are copying expensive designer brands otherwise they wouldn't bother making them.

Tisk tisk, cheap evil knock offs indeed, because obviously none of the genius wash-towel writer bible students cheated to get where they are.

This is just another ploy to try and get YOU to remove any outside (non-wash-towel) stimuli from your life.
But they aren't controlling or going beyond the things taught.

The difference between satan and watchtower's jehovah
by OMJ insatan doesn't expect anyone to watch his/her child die instead of take blood.
satan doesn't keep lying to us about when the world's gonna end.
in satan's world, child molesters are sent to jail.

Satan doesn't expect me to give up everything for him.
In Satan's world I can USE my free will.
In Satan's world I'm not a useless piece of crap because I don't have a penis.
According to Satan I'm perfectly fine just the way I am.

Even from the time I was little I felt there's gotta be a better way than THIS!
As I matured I thought, ok we're trying to "share the good news" (yeah right) but that doesn't mean we should be intrusive and rude.

I can't tell you how, I just do.
However I must say it's definitely a talent I've honed over the years.
And it never is or gets any easier because just when you think it can't get any worse or they can't possibly get any dumber, BAM!

Any more fond (not so) DC memories?
by outsmartthesystem inmy oldest child was barely 4 months old and not an easy baby.
she cried all the time....and getting her to sleep during the day was a pain.....especially in a facility that was 80 degrees with a/c.
on sunday afternoon of the dc....knowing we had a two hour drive home (she also didn't sleep in the car well).....i went to an "off limits" area with her.

To be quite honest after my thirty some odd years of attending (born-in) I don't have any good memories of a DC or ass-em-bleed.
They're all negative!
