is the january 3, 2013 letter to the body of elders regarding the fact that a "packet of legal material is available to assist publishers who are involved in lawsuits over child custody and visitation matters in which our religion is under attack" still up on the information board?
.
if so.......can anyone get a picture of it up there on the information board?

Im guessing you have the letter as posted above and would like proof it exists on the KH info board?
Someone will have to post it up there and take a picture unless one of the MS is really lazy and has left it up there for some reason.
I'll see what I can come up with.
i'd like to offer a public apology to nathan natas for making a wrong decision when i deleted him.. i allowed a combination of previous issues we'd had and input from other forum members to bias my decision which lead me to what i now, in hindsight, believe to have been a mistake.. whether you want to come back and post here or not i wanted to at least say sorry and will reactivate your account..
Wow, a lot have people have been banned and they still have much support here! They might have moved on to other venues to fill the void they may have felt.
Nathan Natas was banned over alleged threats made to Cedars.
Welcoming him back here is a clear message to Cedars.
so ~2 years ago i left the jw cult, i had an exit talk with the elders with the reasons why and they couldn't find a reason to df me.
been happy ever since even though i went through a difficult custody and now divorce proceedings.
now all of a sudden they want to df me.
Elder bodies are carrying out this procedure in full force everywhere. Despite threats of litigation they are choosing to "disfellowship" and announce "so and so is no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses" even when a Judicial Committee has never met with the accused.
My advice is DO NOT respond in any way shape or form.

Simon I agree. Who knows, I may be breaking the rules posting my observations of the group here. There are a bunch of great people actively participating on the AAWA group page. Many are bringing up points of contention and concern. As I stated above some issues are being addressed and modified, some issues are being discussed and some issues are being set aside for the time. Just as it is unfair to stereotype JWN and its members based on the posts of some, nobody should think ALL AAWA members are blindly following leadership without confrontation of pertinent issues. Time will tell how the machine is oiled or not.

Lime
Nico, I had some great things to say about you when you posted. Unfortunately I dont think you received them? You ask a very pertinent question and it continues to be addressed in the AAWA group as well.
Personally I feel time is of the essence. The longer this festers, the more damage it could cause AAWA.

Slim, that was in reference to group members that have commented on the group page about the issue. I can see who has left and who has stayed by looking at the members list. I am not referencing the 1300+ that are still members.
I agree with you out of the current members many may choose to leave and I am watching it and I am watching new members that have requested to join.
I was not trying to focus on anything with the punchlist. I hoped my observations could lead to productive discussion.

Sorry no intent to detract, instead I would like the real issues resolved. It was just an observation from reading the referenced thread. While Cedars is respected by the majority there a some members that are definitely not his fans.

Grieving?
I am commenting on the very thread Ann referenced above. As I said I find it interesting it's the same exact forum members bickering with him. It's not a claim it's a fact if you look at the thread. That is all.

Thanks for posting that Ann. That's what I love about this forum. As long as Simon does not delete the thread it is all there in the archives. It is a great resource for researching recognizable ExJW names even if they are no longer allowed to post here too.
I also find it interesting that the same JWN members that were following Cedars around causing him grief 5 months ago are the same ones leading the bandwagon dissent against him and AAWA today.
