Edenone. I wish you all the strength to overcome your situation. Life is very complex. Please don't blame yourself or your partner. We as human beings can't predict the future. Relationships is one of the reason I wrote my book. I hope that after reading it people will feel better about themselves. Knowing that its not their fault and that there is a way out. By the way I have been to Algarve a couple of times. You are very lucky to live in Portugal. šš

Still Totally Add. Hopefully it will. The character by the name "Sara" is the ex jw. It is very difficult to explain jw behavior. I could never explain to people how can a whole family avoid their disfellowshiped family member. And as a jw I was always embarrassed if someone asked me that. I never supported that idea.

Scratchme 1010. I know its strange how some JW get all emotional about your life when they barely know youš¤Ø
Careful. "Smoking" Ha, ha indeed š Yes, they will never admit. Well they talk to Jesus personally so what can I do šš
Dubstepped. Thank you. šI don't care if I will be disfellowshiped. They proved enough how bad they are and that they have no connection with God

I think they will try to push it as long as they possibly can. As soon as they will have problems from the governments they might stop, but who knows when that will happen. From my experience I am certain that the Governing body doesn't care what brothers or sisters are thinking about them or this situation. They fully believe they are anointed (divine) ones and they can do whatever they want.

Who knows? Maybe there are one or two honest people in the Governing body, but all together the result of their work is horrible. Ok, If I will need any information I will get in touch. Thank you -

My name is Alex Bogdanov. I am the author of IF ONLY. It was published a month ago. Some Jehovahās Witnesses consider me a brother and some donāt. I am not disfellowshipped. Even though I have been threatened continuously to be disfellowshipped since I was 18 years old. I am 30 years old now. I am joining your forum because one of my friends, an inactive brother, told me that someone here is writing posts pretending to be me. If you want me to confirm that this is really me I have a public FB, IG and Twitter account for my book (@alexbogdanovuk). There you can message me.
I will write a few sentences about the book and after about myself.
JW are against my book, but a few JW secretly support me. My book is a fictional love story, but it is not a standard love story. In a compact publication I try to tackle the subjects of religion, philosophy, homosexuality. One of the characters is an ex JW. I chose to do this because I didnāt write this book for Jehovahās Witnesses, but for people who are not JW. For people who donāt have JW family or friends the behaviour of Jehovahās Witnesses is a bizzer one. I received a few reviews and non-JWs found the ex JW character fascinating. Some readers think that this characterās experiences are not real. But any JW will know that it is real. JW donāt like my book because the character is questioning the fundamental believes of the Organisation. If you want, you can read second half of chapter V from my book. That will be enough. That is the chapter that made JW very angry. In this chapter my character is going through many questions that all JW had at some point but couldnāt discuss them at the meetings.
I donāt mind JW because some of them are good people. I still stay in contact with a few JW friends and they know all my thoughts about the Organisation. But I fully disagree with the Governing body. My parents are not JW. I started to study when I was 14, baptised when I was 15, became a pioneer when I was 17. I became a JW to study the bible not to follow someoneās leadership. I never gave up my old life and friends. I decided to study the bible and go on the ministry but not to change into a thoughtless creature. I was questioning elders constantly and when I became a pioneer I wrote a letter to the Governing body with some questions that in my opinion needed to be looked at. When I was 17 I read the āCrisis of the Conscienceā and discussed it with my circuit overseer. By the time I was 18 the elders and the circuit overseer hated me. I was a JW, but I had my own life and I continued to discuss with brothers and sisters touchy subjects. When I went to University and started to date a sister who was deemed to be a bad association I was stripped from being a pioneer and told that if I will continue with my behaviour I will be disfellowshipped. The funny thing is that there is nothing to disfellowship me for. Its been 12 years since and along the way I was threatened on a few occasions. They think I troll them, but I truly want to find out the answers to my questions.
So why I donāt like the Governing body? I never believed that the New World will come in 2014. I didnāt see it in the Bible at all. I thought that in 2014 the Governing Body will apologize in front of everyone, admit their fault and instead of behaving like they have connection with Jehovah they will focus on studying the Bible. But, they decided to behave like cowards. Published another foolish book (Godās Kingdom rules) and made a new prophecy. I was disgusted. How vile they must be to continue their lies! Donāt they understand that their ideas affect millions of people? Sure, they do! If Satan exists, the Governing body are his mates. I wrote another letter to them asking them to study the Bible and stop creating philosophical ideas. But as usual I didnāt get a reply.
I have a wife, half of her family are JW and the other half are not. I have a 2 year old son. And I am happy that my child wonāt grow up amongst JW. Jehovahās Witnesses are no different to other world religions with its dogmas and destructive philosophy.
Thank you for your time
