Congratulations on your 20th wedding anniversary, Kairos.

i have recently been disfellowshipped (after being reinstated in march).
i saw a group of jws gathered in the town car park yesterday.
they seemed startled when they recognised my car and talked amongst themselves giving one another a satisfied grin!
My suggestion; move on with your life. They don't care about you so why should you even acknowledge their existence.
Onwards and upwards as they say!
i'd love to see you're favorite wt illustrations/photo's that they think are fine to print - but are actually kind of creepy/wierd.. .
here's my three fave from my book of bible stories (yes, a book for children!)..
man gets his head nailed into the floor with a tent pin by a good jehovah worshipper:.
Coming in late on this topic;
A number of the pictures in the WT publications are disturbing - creepy as hell.
my son turns 9 on monday however we are having his 2nd birthday party today.
he is so excited.
it brings a huge smile to his mom and dads faces.. every day is a blessing.
Happy birthday Adin. I hope you have a great day with your family and friends.
if you were part of a judicial committee, and knowing what you know now, what was it like for you to sit on jc’s?
how did you feel if someone was reproved or df’d?
were you ever on a jc and you disagreed with someone being reproved or df’d and were overruled – how did you feel?

What was it like for you to sit in on elders meetings and having to kowtow to, and forced to uphold, the Org’s policies and procedures which you thought were morally and fundamentally wrong. Were you ever in a position at these meetings where you felt 'bullied or ganged up on' by some longer serving elders?
I was never an elder so I’m curious as to what it was like for you behind the scenes.
greetings, fellow posters:.
wishing you well and offering my sympathy if you've ever experienced vertigo.
my neighbor is a physical therapist and told me about the epley maneuver, which i am now researching.. have you ever been through this hell of total incapacitation?.
I suffered with vertigo on one occasion. Definitely not a pleasant experience.
i still go to the meetings because of my in wife and it came about that the elders knew of my pissed off attitude about the society getting involved in the un.
so the elders said they could help me get over that and wanted to meet with me.
now just to let you know, i have only told my wife and her mom so far about it, that's it.
You keep hearing the elder say, "this is apostate!" again and again, and it really sinks in. In essence he was calling me an apostate simply for finding a news article critical of JW's. .... LTPF
By responding with 'this is apostate' without even considering the article proves to me that that elder had no answer and lost his case. Only option available to him is being the aggressor and using his 'power and position' against you.
besides being raised in the religion , why do people become jws?
.
My parents converted. I was only 8 years old at the time. Over a passage of time it ended up being wasted years.
jesus drifted amongst the lowly folk .
You have more chance of being struck by lightning than having a 1 on 1 with a GB member.
