  guys .

  a letter was just read in out kh stating that all printing of wt and awake is ceased for the coming year and we will just place tracts on fs, countries which were cared by our branch will be cared by other countries...along with this they read the new fs form and stuff about reporting links of videos wtf..lol.

  i can't tell which country perhaps that will give away a lot, any one with a similar information.

  How about suggesting they say, "No thanks, I am an apostate, would you like to hear the reason I left JW's?" It would be interesting to hear their responses... (PS, give them something to say, perhaps about pedophiles & the ARC?)

  Taking pictures? Reporting back to "their superiors"? Sounds a bit like the era of the Nazi's.

  i am not sure if it's true but i heard from a good source that wt has given instructions to elders to postponed disfellowshipping members from wrong doing/gross sin until further instructions given by headquarters.

  i heard some jws were just reproved either privately or publically.

  has anyone else heard anything like this recently?

  Long Story of my Life/Experience

  also, my wife has come to her limits of understanding me about the witnesses related grief i have been having.

  she has told me many times to stop reading the ex-witness sites because i get depressed and become angry, which sadly is true.

  it's not very productive to be sad throughout the entire day and then shout at your wife for the reason she has no first hand experience about, therefore how could she possibly know and help?

  Congrats GrownMidget! I think that one/ many things the WT does to mess with your brain is say, "Wait on Jehovah" and "Don't get mad" and "Vengence is mine" and "Don't talk about the negative"..... when really, it is natural. It helps us solve problems, we interreact, we find solutions, it helps us work through things, right?

  Once we get to freely express ourselves, we do not feel repressed. I am so sorry for what happened to you as a child, being forced to the floor, the crazy things (yes, crazy) that adults did to you! Anyone would say, "What the heck is going on here?" and children do not have the power, or the means to escape all of the time.

  I am glad you made it!

  Spend time with your wife, making her feel special, it will make you feel better every day!

  Hugs, cha ching!

  *** w69 4/15 p. 229 How to Identify the True Religion ***

  God’s Word shows that there are persons who may have the Bible and even study it but whose works prove that they disown the God they claim to know. “They publicly declare they know God,” the Bible says, “but they disown him by their works, because they are detestable and disobedient and not approved for good work of any sort.” (Titus 1:16; John 5:39, 40) The form of worship that they practice is not pleasing to God, because they do not allow his Word to exercise genuine power in their lives.—2 Tim. 3:5.

  At first one might reason that it is simply one minister who is wrong or certain church members who do not do right. But what if the minister who downgrades the Bible continues to hold his position? And what if the church members who do wrong continue to be in good standing? Then it is time to face the fact that the bad fruits identify the religious organization itself.

  (Exodus 5:10-18) 10 So those who drove the people to work and their officers went out and said to the people: “Here is what Phar′aoh has said, ‘I am giving YOU no more straw. 11 YOU yourselves go, get straw for yourselves wherever YOU may find it, because there is to be no reducing of YOUR services one bit.’” 12 Consequently the people scattered about over all the land of Egypt to gather stubble for straw. 13 And those who drove them to work kept urging them, saying: “Finish YOUR works, each one his work, day for day, just as when straw was available.”
  14 Later on the officers of the sons of Israel, whom Phar′aoh’s taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, these saying: “Why is it YOU did not finish YOUR prescribed task in making bricks as formerly, both yesterday and today?” 15 Consequently the officers of the sons of Israel went in and began to cry out to Phar′aoh, saying: “Why do you deal this way with your servants? 16 There is no straw given to your servants and yet they are saying to us, ‘Make bricks!’ and here your servants are beaten, whereas your own people are at fault.” 17 But he said: “YOU are relaxing, YOU are relaxing! That is why YOU are saying, ‘We want to go, we want to sacrifice to Jehovah.’ 18 And now go, serve! Though no straw will be given to YOU, yet YOU are to give the fixed amount of bricks.”
