  a few months ago, there was a post asking about randy watters.

  as 1975 was approaching, many witnesses sold their property.

  do you know about specific cases that are willing to share their experience of doing so?.

  I never understood that with milions of JW's, so few online activity is generated.

  Jw.org ban about online discussion seems effective.

  I remember it well, on Dutch TV news, and it conflicted with my "Jehovah protected his people" conviction.

  Syntax error in my believe system then.

  Which of you readers are being shunned by their relatives / friends ?

  2. experiences

  a simple " me" if you dont want to say more--or a short explanation about who is shunning you and how long has this been going on.. i'll set the ball rolling: my daughter--her husband and children; my younger son --no contact from them for 40 years...because i left their religion.. (edit--i just noticed the typo in the header--if should be of ).

  Some family do avoid us, but most give us a normal treatment.
