SandraC- i havent set foot in a kh for over a year so def not active.
i actually felt a pang of sadness for them because they dont have a clue. the sister looked crushed that i wasnt interested.
2 sisters came to the door and since i dont live in the territory they dont know me and i got to say "i'm not interested" for the first time :).
it felt awesome.
didnt have a chance to engage in conversation as i was quite busy but it was a nice first for me..

there are really only a couple of reasons an active elder would be lurking here on jwn.. .
[if !supportlists]i. your ever growing doubts about the organization have led you here, or.
[if !supportlists]ii.
Thanks for the tip Phizzy but fortunately I could not care less if I was confronted. Anyone who would try is a true coward and hypocrite. But I know there r ones who do need to be careful for one reason or another. For those, better safe than sorry.

out of curiosity, how can one be outed by this forum? unless one confesses i would think it is all circumstantial and one could simply deny posting. dont they need actual witnesses?? those that tattle would then open themselves up to scrutiny for being here as well. doesnt make sense to me. i am all about theocratic warfare in reverse.
brilliant expose on scientology.
in many instances you can submit "jw" in place of their title.
however luckily the wtbts is bad, but not "as bad".
I wish my parents had been awake to see this. Sadly I think they would compartmentalize life as jw's and insist they r nothing alike and that Scientology is, of course a cult but not the org. It's that selective blindness...my parents r the only people I want to awaken because they r the only ones in my life now that consider anything the gb says is important.
very good publicity to what a cult is... (ssshhhh i have a crush on savannah guthrie )she is soooo smart!.
He just said that most fade quietly but wasn't about to take that route. He decided to go big. Very familiar experiences already.

helpful techniques for getting in your pioneer time.. .
remember: there is a time for everything under the sun.. .

All of those techniques sound familiar. My old hall had several brothers pioneering who never seemed to talk to anyone but had their time by spring by starting their time at 7am and ending at 2p, counting everything in between. 3 days a week x 7 plus the obligatory Saturday using a similar method yielding 5 hrs gives one a grand total of 26 hrs per week. Doing this means one has their time in 32-33 weeks with about 4 to 5 months to coast or take a vaca...
my husband and i have two small children, one of which recently became an unbaptised publisher and joined the school.
my husband is an elder and firmly committed to our family and loves me deeply as i love him.
i would like to find a way for all of us to fade away as we have family in the organization that we do not want to lose.
It is so sad that a label, a mere word cast upon another person can divide families and hurt innocent people. As was brought out on another thread a while back, it's not the ACTIONS of a person but that LABEL thrust upon them without option that causes divisions. Without those words, so many families would stay intact and fewer people would suffer the unavoidable, ensuing mental anguish that is certain to happen. Jesus would have never acted in this way. Period.
