When they left about 15 minutes, I found my 4-pages document in the rubish-bin outside the apartment. They scare to read their own rubbish !!!!!
....what a great display of respect for that "fine provision" provided by the FDS...

What are the benifits of DA? Should I DA?
by zucker ini'm wondering if i should just "come out of the closet" and tell my family i don't believe it anymore and da myself or don't make any noise and fade out?

additionally, some have expressed concern over da.

I just think it's an incredible display of lack of control over a person's own life to feel that they owe the WT or it's proxies, the Cheese and Cracker Men, and explanation of their activities as adults. The two stooges at your door thrive on the perceived sense of power they have over people.
Other than an act of clearing your conscious either talking to them or writing a letter will change nothing. You write a letter and they spread the word about you anyway from both the stage and in car groups. If you decide to talk to them, they are basically not there to hear anything you have to say, especially if it's negative toward the organization, they're there to spray you liberally with liquid guilt to get you back into the fold.
In writing a letter, one may sense that they are getting the last word, but the reality is that you let them get it anyway; from the stage on service meeting night. I think that you get the last word by making the decision, sticking to it, and considering the matter closed.
Write the letter, if you feel you must, but I wouldn't waste the .37 cent stamp sending it.

Why even give them the satisfaction of a "slow fade"?
Just stop going and refuse to answer any questions about it.

Man, do I ever know what you mean.
When I was trying to play that role and spare my wife's feelings about going to those meetings, I would've rather have had a prostate exam with a spiked club than to sit in there listening to that same nonsense over and over. I died a little inside everytiime I went.
I'm not sure what your plans are, but for me, at least, it got to the point where I knew I wasn't doing either one of us any good by going to those meetings and pretending to like them. I had to make a stand for my own sanity and let the chips fall where they may. It was tough, and there were knock down drag outs about it but she came to realize that although she didn't like it, she had to respect my decision of not believing the party line any longer.

1935 CLOSING DATE FOR THE 144. 000 ANNOINTED
by nightwarrior injust stealing a thought from a very interesting thread which i just saw.
if this date was the closing date1935 , then the significance of extra bodies taking the place of the former chosen ones here on the earth will eventualy be seen as a complete fraud why.
because the organization will eventualy produce an extra 144000 on earth still alive .

And what about this theory of replacements....
Sitting through that slosh at this years memorial celebration I distinctly remember the speaker saying that the annointed follow the "lamb" wherever he goes. If this class was closed in 1935 those people even if they were born that years should be pushing 70 about now. I predict that this annointed class will be less spoken of as time goes by, then just as with their generation doctrine, new light will "springeth forth" that completely contradicts everything the WT has been saying for the last 100 years.

The only thing messing it up is a little integrity I can't seem to part with.
I can respect that.
If you cave in and let the JW take that away from you, you'll probably be a lot less happy then you are right now.

Well I realized that if I waited on "the sock puppet" any longer that my life was going to go absolutely nowhere.
When I decided that I was going back to school my JW wife had a hissy fit, screaming, slamming doors, invoking the name of their sock puppet god, telling me that my decision was a total waste of time. I ignored her and went anyway. When I started to no longer respond to her efforts to stop me I started getting elder visits, coming over my house a pair at a time every other weekend telling me that I was wasting my time and that that time would be better spent in the field "so close to the end". Basically, all of them including my wife, spraying me with liquid guilt for not pursueing "theocratic activities". It was tough, but I held my ground. One elder even implied that I'd never make any more money than what I was making at the time.
Graduated and got a job in the computer feild. Currently working in the IT department of a educational institution responsible for network connectivity between a handful of buildings with some 3000 nodes. In the years since I've graduated, I've quadrupled my income and the naysaying wife enjoys the freedom of not having to work.
And yes....I throw it all up in her and her JW relatives faces every chance I get.
People talk about the best revenge is living well and happy without them..... The elders once dropped by my house one day when I was slipping into my new two seater sports car on my way to a new hobby that I finally had the money for...flying. When I sheepishly told them where I was going and how well my job and life was going they both were green with envy. You could see it all over their faces.
