Hi BD!
BD: She says I'm being picky
Isn't that how "true Christians" are supposed to be?
BD: she said she doesn't know me anymore.
Tell her, "I don't know this religion anymore!"

Why attack?
by newqatarjob inas someone brought up as a jw and been an elder and been disfellowshipped (twice!!!
) i find it difficult to understand why ex jws have to attack the religion, yes religion, not cult or sect.
i am no longer disfellowshipped just do not want to practice anymore.

Morpheus: Of course that brochure isnt really written for the inactive. Its written, like all things, for the sole consumption of the faithful.
I totally agree. This is damage control meant to reinforce the loyalty of those that remain. Keep telling them that people only leave for illegitimate reasons: sin, weakness, corruption, immorality, demon-possession.
Keep up the illusion that the GB members really care about those that left. Maintain the facade that elders are actively trying to "save lost sheep."
It's all bullshit for in-house consumption.
Once I was DF'd for 4 years and only once did an elder make any attempt to reach out to me. This was at a time I lived within walking distance (and I mean 1 city block) of the COBE of the congregation where I was DF'd.
It's just more propaganda from the WTBTS.
Let's review: It's a cult!

Nature of the Word "Spiritual" Amongst Witnesses
by freemindfade ineven as an atheist i consider myself spiritual, always have, metaphysics and spiritual discussions about enlightenment and so on i find interesting, even if belief in a yhwh is not in me.
i want to propose this simple definition of the word "spiritual" among jehovah's witnesses.. spiritual = indoctrination or indoctrinated.
i have been told how i'm "just not a spiritual man".
