what a crazy, emotional ride it is to finally face the truth about the doubts that i have carried for many years.

from what i understand, a letter was read this past week in regards to congregation reassignments and that the elders want to meet with people at their homes to tell them where they have been reassigned.
obviously, this would be due to the merging and dissolution of congregations.
can anyone confirm this?.
Longhairgal - You got that right. People aren’t going to travel that far - especially on a winter night. I know I wouldn’t have. They are going to have even emptier kingdom halls.
That's part of the plan, then they can sell this hall also.
immigration: the truth about the lie: crimecrime: do immigrants increase rates of violence?

It is interesting to note that when you type "who is behind the invasion of Europe" into google search, the auto complete function (the helper that tries to pre-empt or predict your typing your typing) does not help with Europe.
over a period of time i got to thinking - what does the word 'apostate' mean to me.
having given it some thought, this is my view;.
the org has given the word its own definition and basically use it to demonise people and consider them pariahs.. however, the jw meaning of 'apostate' is a mere word and only has power if recognised as such.
Smiddy3 -
A thought just occurred to me : Do the G.B./J.W./ W.T. religion publicly state at meetings ,assembly`s ,conventions ,or in their publications either in print or over JW.Org T.V. programme`s that Islam the religion of Muslims are an Apostate religion ?
Jehovah`s Witnesses seem to have no problem publicly showing up Judaism / Christendom as Apostates in their publications / media , however have they ever gone on record as charging Islam / Muslim religion with Aposatacy ? in any of their publications or media ?
Because these three faiths have a common denominator with the Hebrew bible.
Why in all of these 140 years, have the Jehovah`s Witnesses been silent about the Islam / Muslim religion being an Apostate religion ?
- Not in recent times, they did print two scathing WT articles back in 1950 and 51 that were on the money, they now realise that they are a big soft target with no divine protection, so best pretend that islam does not even exist. They did print a reasonable non inflammatory description in the mankinds search for god book.

Jesus was an apostate from Judaism, It is name calling for somebody who does not agree with your big idea.
