  perhaps this has happened to someone else?.

  in the last two weeks, not one, but two people were reinstated in my congregation.

  each were completely separate cases.

  In the last two weeks, not one, but two people were reinstated in my congregation. Each were completely separate cases. In both cases I was the chairman on the comittee that disfellowshipped them less than two years ago.

  How strange it is to be in this position. Struggling fiercely with my own faith. Totally inactive myself.

  In the brief time it's taken, they've done a 180 and so have I.

  Like I said, this is a weird feeling.

  about seven weeks ago i posted here for the first time.

  in that post i said i'd like to be reinstated but felt it likely wouldn't happen because the shunning was too much for me.

  well, my prayers have been answered and i am reinstated.

  NG,

  I bet you didn't mention in your "request for re-instatement" letter that you've been frequenting this site did you?

  That would have put a little twist in the ol' "claim of repentance" eh?? hehe

  Anyway, glad you're doing what you want to do. There will no doubt be a measure of relief! By the way, I'm glad you kicked the cigs too!

  Take care!

  i recently posted a news article about how a jw said they get dogs sicced on them or they get urine thrown on them.

  Excellent advice from Uzzah, Ona and Francois.

  Recently I added a poster to my Instant Messenger and was shocked/horrified/etc to learn that one of my real email addresses was on there! This allowed this poster to know precisely who I am, where I live, phone numbers, etc. Needless to say I freaked out at first. Since then I've decided to trust her because I believe she's a good person. All's well.

  My point is that one cannot be too cautious. Had I pulled this bone-headed boo boo with anyone less discreet (or God forbid malicious), it would have been curtains for 'ol Syrup.

  By the way, I still can't figure out how to get that email off Instant Messenger. Any pointers?
