Haha, Zeb, they probably told her to start shunning you.

Hello...
by Incognigo Montoya inwell, i've been lurking for a bit.
first out of cautious curiosity, then, though feeling a bit more comfortable to post, got caught in the confirmation email anomaly, and left unable to post or participate.
so i remained lurking, reading and researching.

Welcome. I was born as a slave also and only now am I getting away from the slave mentality. Congratulations, freedom is wonderful.

Praises the WT for JW apps but sneers at members with higher education, in 2018
by ohnightdivine ini guess we all know the answer why this still happens... but really, why?.
just a month ago i was having some conversation with this sister and since i'm on inactive status, she was trying to get me to download all those jw apps because the "work is speeding up" and i shouldn't be missing out on anything from the org.
especially when they come up with all these "provisions" that intend only to benefit the members.

If you check in with a suit and tie and your wife is dressed well you increase the opportunities to be upgraded to first class.

Family is now reaping what they sowed and they don't like it.
by Gemmel ini resigned from the jw's in my 20's over 30 years ago, i was immediately shunned by my entire family and it's remained that way with a few exceptions ever since.
one of those exceptions was being contacted by a cousin a few years back and during that conversation i discovered that my mother had been and still was the prime mover in my complete and continuing shunning.
i then used what contacts i had left to confirm it.

"Oh, the stories I could tell" about my family. Op and Blondie, I'm in the same boat. I'm just waiting for that call for financial assistance. After squandering millions supporting dead beat bethelites/sons and donating to WTBTS.

The GB's modesty knows no bounds
by neat blue dog insarcasm intended obviously 🙄.
in the intro from the latest ezekiel book:.
as youread through its 22 chapters and meditate on thebeautiful illustrations found therein, you will beamazed at all the careful research that has goneinto its preparation.. they call themselves the faithful and discreet slave, but how discreet is it really to be constantly bragging about yourself?

eyeusetobeadub, you are so right. Their research always is in depth but it is looking for a foregone conclusion, meaning they will do research to support their view.

When did the Watchtower start the shunning?
by Tameria2001 inmy husband and i were talking about the shunning part that the jws do?
where can i find more accurate information on this subject?
i am mainly trying to learn when the whole practice started, and stuff like that.

Personally, in my old short life, the shunning thing has grown from the Ray Franz days trying to minimalize damage. There was a Watchtower article in the early 1980's that started to tighten the screws on non-active persons. I remember couples having to rearrange their wedding parties, best men, bridesmaids, invitees etc because appointed elders sprung into compliance.

Actually, shunning goes back to the Garden of Eden, where after Adam and Eve sinned and consequently Jehovah put Adam and Eve out of the Garden and posted Angels to guard the Garden from the shunned to returning to the Garden.
However, Satan was able to walk into a meeting and talk about Job with Jehovah in front of all the other angels and he gave permission to persecute Job but not kill him. Satan wasn't shunned, because he wasn't considered a threat. But eventually, Satan was Demonized and supposedly is now excommunicated.
