Hello gang! I just wanted everyone to know that tonight I had some drinks with a dub who is planning on leaveing. She is fed up with all the dub BS and is wanting to DF herself. I told her to DA herself, because a DF marks her as someone who did wrong and got kicked out.
She is an old friend of my ex wife, who is still a dub. I got her number and plan on talking to her when I am sober. I was a little buzzed when I was chatting with her, so I'm not totally sure on what i talked to her about. But from what I remember, she is fed up with the bs, but she still is a believer.
Just wanted to inform everyone on my goings on.

Will the guilt pass?

When I used to go I would get mad/upset when my friends wouldn't go. Its hard to think why. It was partly a jelousy thing, if I had to be there, they should be there too. Part of it was the gossip circle. It seems like people like to talk about who isn't strong and talk about how they always miss meetings. It builds the "regular" attendees up, by tearing others down. Family and friends want to defend you so they want you to be there so nobody will talk ill of you. I'm just rambling, sorry. Just look at why people are upset. They say that they want you to surivive armageddon, and the only way to do that is to go to meetings and swallow their filth for 5 hours a week. But it rarely is a loving purpose like that.
Think about how this looks to others who haven't been scarred from the borg. It looks like a chemical dependance to a drug, and you are going through withdraws. Perhaps there are 12 steps we should go through to overcome the "addiction" to the borg.

Don't Accept Witness Rudeness!
by metatron ina lot of what elders ( and others) ask is just plain rude and you should tell.
i've informed elders that 'inquisitions and interrogations are unchristian.
and rude'.. imagine people showing up uninvited at your home, asking questions about your private.

I think its rude for them to call their religion "the truth" to people (me) who don't believe. I call what I believe the truth because it is what I think is the truth. They claim I left the truth, but I tell them I found the truth. They don't seem to like that.

We went to the "Year end" party for my ex's company. But when we got there, it was all decked otu with christmas stuff. All the signs called it a christmas party, It didn't bother either of us. We still called it the year end party and felt fine.
Now I'm throwing a christmas party at my house and its gonna be fun! ( I hope)

Why do Some Ex-JWs go Wacko?
by rebel ini don't intend to offend anybody with this post, so please excuse me if i do.
i have often wondered why some people that leave the wt organisation go really weird.
there is a couple near me who left a couple of years ago.

I think its the individuals who are weird. I'm a normal person and I'm an ex JW. I don't see a problem with celebrating xmas, I never did, I just went along because thats what I was supposed to do. These people are finally doing the stuff the want to do, whether its healthy or not. Weird people do weird things. There are TONS of weird people in the JW who do weird things while they are jws, so please don't say its just the people who leave.

Do all witnesses shun you?
by JH inthere are always a few tender hearted, who know that shunning is stupid and keep on talking to df'd people, when no one is looking.
are there still a few who keep on talking to you, even if you are df'd?
i'm sure that elders wouldn't shun you if you talk to them, so why do others have to shun you?

Well, I'm DA'd which is the same to them. My two sister in laws (ex) have stopped by my work to talk to me and say hi. It was really nice. They both have kids (nieces & nephews to me) and I miss them a lot. Funny thing happend though.
My nephew was talking to his grandpa (my ex's dad and PO of the cong) he was all excited and told him that they visited me. I wish I could have seen his face! Well, Grandpa got all upset and started to yell at my sister in law, saying that she shouldn't talk to someone who turned their back on Jehoober. Well, my sister in law told him to stuff it and left, it was great!

Where is God?
by donkey inwhy does god allow this stuff?
according to your teachings, believers, just so he can stroke himself and show how man has failed.
in fact believers will read this stuff and shrug it off because in the future god will fix it it and it just proves why we need god..

This is the way I look at it.
If you have a police chief that has authority over the other officers, and he sees them doing heinous crimes(torturing inmates and other various things), what is his responsibility. If he idely sits by watching and says the officers were given a book with all the rules and regulations and thats good enough, he will get fired and thrown in jail too. He is accountable for what his inferious do.
If god is our creator, he needs to take some responsibility over his creation. He needs to step in. But he doesn't....what does that say? Well to me it says he isn't there. If he is waiting to prove his soverenty, I think that ship has sailed and sunk. He lost his right to rule by ignoring the cries of the innocent!
