DF’d or DA???

by DATA-DOG in

so, i think i’m going to be df’d, but elders are out of town and no decision has been officially reached.

what would happen if i sent a certified overnight letter and said that i was going to disassociate before they have their meeting??.

i know the two conditions are similar, but i’m just curious... dd.

Have you had your judicial committee Hearing yet?

9 days to go

9 days to go until i hand my d'a letter in.

its extremely short, as in one sentence long.

i'm not giving them a reason coz i don't need to coz it's my life and my choice and i don't have to answer to the boe or gb.

Out4good4 - they won't leave me alone if I don't hand letter In. They're very persistent. My "conditional friends" will definitely harass me.

What was your trigger to waking up ?

by CovertsadJW in

good afternoon , .

i wanted to ask everyone here , what was your trigger to waking up ?

i have been waking up for a long time , but in looking back it’s hard for me to look at one event and say “ ah ha “ , i think mine is like a slow leak - like a crack in a damn - and then hold on , because after that it’s just a flood of information.

607 for me too and then after that I started doing research and found a lot more lies from wts

friends

this is my first post to this site, im pale.emperor's brother:).

first of all, i've left being a jw in june.

since then my family have tried to convince me it's "the truth" and force me to go back even though it's my own decision.

Jrjw

Hi Dan welcome to the forum. I'm pleased you're away from the cult and now you can truly start to live your life the way YOU want to live it. Sorry to hear how you're family and other jws are treating you, just shows that love is conditional among jws.

The story of 2 study's

by karter in

jw
friends

in my old congro 2 people started study's at about the same time.. lets call them john and jane.. john started a study with an elder who was related to most of the b.o.e.. jane with my mother a publisher with an unbleaving mate.. they both progressed well to the point of baptism.. johns house was nothing short of a pigsty overgrown grass inside filthy ect.. janes was not alot better.. when they both wanted to bet baptised jane was held back becouse of the state she kept her house but john was aloud to get baptised.. when the elders told jane this she she stopped her study and went to another religion and lived happly ever after.. the diffrence bettween john and jane appart from he studyed with and elder related to most of the b.o.e........ jane was blind!!.

more to this story.. john quickly moved along with the j.w's doing mic's sound ect and eventually married a sister.. john had 2 children from a previous relationship his son lived with him but he said he never saw his daughter becouse his ex had poisoned her against him.. the son became a j.w and was a real nice guy eventuly getting married to a nice sister and settling down ,both are good j.w's.

to this day.. john however turned out to be a wife beating s.o.a.b they had a child and she was pregnant with number 2 when the police were called on him for beating her up and he was arrested.. the police locked him up for the nite and took him to court the next day were he was found guilty of beating her up.. this was all kept very quite and the elders never took any action against john.. as any court records are open to the public you would think he would at least be "publicly reproved"....nothing!!..

It makes me sick how the man's side is always taken no matter what they do. My ex is lapping up all the sympathy he can get

Why are the GB and JWs scared of "apostates" and "research"? Romans 8: 35-39

by stuckinarut2 in

i was just pondering this passage of scripture:.

romans 8:35-39 (new world translation).

35 who will separate us from the love of the christ?+ will tribulation or distress or persecution or hunger or nakedness or danger or sword?+ 36 just as it is written: “for your sake we are being put to death all day long; we have been accounted as sheep for slaughtering.”+ 37 on the contrary, in all these things we are coming off completely victorious+ through the one who loved us.

Jrjw

I wish I'd done my research all these years but they make you scared to in a way. My ex was shocked in November when I said I'd done research on 607bce on the internet coz apparently historians all lie and the wts doesn't so should stick to what they say about it coz it's "The truth".... what a load of ****.

What's out there?

by Jrjw in

someone asked me what does the world have to offer if left the truth?

'coz i'm still in the process of leaving i just said i don't feel i fit in the truth or the world.

she's known me for 12 years and she's the 3rd person recently to say i've changed.

Jrjw

I know I could meet people at a local church quite quickly but I don't want to leave one religious organisation and be part of another one. I'm still traumatised off this one

I'm not scared of going back into "The world" or leaving the religion would be a better way of putting it since its them against the world. I'll have my freedom back. As soon as I've made some non jw friends I'm disassociating anyway. I only know jws where I've just moved to and don't live near my family so I need to make new friends before I can leave the religion.
