Aren't the elders supposed to visit df'd ones?
by buffy inmaybe someone can answer this.
i thought that elders made it a point to visit df'd ones like 1 a year to see if they've thought about coming back, etc.
don't get me wrong, i'm happy they haven't come to see me.

How do you deal with dub friends?
by In_between_days ini would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone for their replys to my thread titled "i cant move on", and express my gratitude for your genuine and helpful advise.. i am happy to say that i am certainly in the process of moving on and healing the wounds that have been inflicted by the wt.
there is only one problem that remains............. i have a few dub friends who i do still consider to be very good friends.
i made a decision that i would never try to push my discoveries of the curroption within the org on them, and keep our conversations very neutral.

I too agree with Humm, a friend should be a friend no matter what !!
Most witnesses have a conditional "love" their consciences are overridden by men: it's like a light switch that can be turned on or off by an organizational decree. while it would be hard to sit and listen to their "talk", you could come up with clever questions.

To Current Witnesses
by freedom96 in.
for witnesses who are currently going to the meetings, or anyone really for that matter, who may have friends still going i have a question:.
what are the active witnesses saying about the molesting issue that has come quite apparent lately?

when the date-line show aired, while I was still semi- active, I had mentioned it to an older sister on how much it bothered me. her response is like a lot of them "those apostates will twist things around".
total denial

Tink's Surgery Tomorrow
by CC Ryder inhey everyone....just letting you know tink will be having her surgery finally at 7:00am tomorrow morning (9-26).
they originally said they could not do it till 10-3....but we got that changed right quick...tink broke red on them...(southern term for kickin some ass)...she's holding her own considering the time she has been in constant pain....never complained once....everything should go fine and she'll be home some time on friday...the doctor that is doing the surgery keeps his patients overnight even with orthoscopic surgery...i'll let ya'll know tomorrow how she's doing...i got it under control..i'm taking the rest of the week off to be with her.

gosh, i'm sorry to hear how much pain she's been in and that the surgery date hasn't been close enough.
tell her to pick out a good dream while she's under, a lot of people are thinking about her and wishing her well. it's hard for you CC because you have to see her go through this and then to wait for it to be over. but it will be over. hugs from Jackie in nebraska.
Tink take advantage of all the pampering you can get !!!

Will my JW wife and son get into trouble for this?
by dmouse insome of you may remember my son's struggle with his beliefs about a year ago.
benjamin was brought up as a jw and was heavily involved, used extensively on the platform as a good jw role model.
however, about a year ago (when he was 13) he started to have doubts and went through a cycle of depression, even contemplating suicide.

i'm glad your wife stepped up and won't let your son alone with them. parents are responsible for
their children and should be with them in that situation. your son sounds like a bright young man.
mine at 14 started questioning what what being said. he and his father would pass notes back and forth to each other during meetings, so much so that i gave up my seat next to hubby so they could sit next to each other.
his first question that i remember was the about "first rainbow-as written as such in the childrens bible story book" his dad told him to ask an elder,--elder said-- well maybe there was only a mist appearing , or it rained at night. 14 year old-- but Jehovahs law of physics was already in place so it couldn't be the first rainbow. elder squirming to get away and changing subject and held a bit of a grudge after that.
we left within months of seeing one printing error after another and of course reading Ray's books.
