  Why is it so hurtful to be shunned? Why object to it?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it seems like many feel hurt or saddened by the practice of shunning by witnesses.. yes, when ones who we were close to, perhaps family or ones we thought were close friends choose to follow the warped directions of the society, it may seem hurtful.. but really, our reaction is up to us.

  the fact is, these ones have shown that in reality, their love for us was never real or genuine.

  no, those relationships were superficial and lacking in substance.

  steve2: like, I saw brother 80 year old celebrating Xmas in the senior home.

  Elders: Oh no we can't have that. By the way who is the brother, doesn't matter.

  We will put a stop to this. Was he in our congregation, anyone knows him????

  What get me about shunning and my None JW family, my ex- and her husband shows up

  at MY JW family members gathering and on vacation she and her husband travail to visit

  MY JW family members.We have been divorce over 25 years and I have no idea who my

  nephews and nieces are. My sister told me it makes her ill (who never was a JW) when my

  JW side of the family have a gathering and my ex and her husband is there.

  It was a ugly divorce and I believe the ex is enjoying it. She rarely visit her own family members, none

  are JW's...It bugs the hell out of me.....

  My ex-neighbor a JW live in a Senior home, a JW for over 60 years. No children, no wife and

  one sister(not a JW) that live in another city. He calls me to see if I can come by to visit, the funny thing

  he knows I was once a JW. Two elderly sisters visit him once a month to drop off the Mags,

  the Elders maybe visit once or twice a year.I ask him why the friends don't come by more often

  for a visit? He told me the old ones have passed or they are to old to drive and the new ones don't know him.

  So now he is visited by an Apostate (me), but we talk about his time in the Dutch Nazi prison camp, his love for music,

  and his love for Canada we never speak about the Bible. But it's sad.....I thought about contacting

  his KH and tell them I'am a Apostate and your brother_____ call me to come by because he has no visitors.

  I bet you that will increase his visitors or he will get DF. A sick organization....

  Possible two Leprosy cases in Riverside California elementary school. We have come a long way from the Bible GOD of the OT.

  by James Mixon in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the earliest account of the disease appears in an egyptian papyrus around 1550 b.c.. hansen's or leprosy infected around 100-200 people in the u.s each year and most are.

  in the south, texas and louisiana no idea why.. in the bible leprosy is mentioned upwards of 40 times.

  the main reason why leprosy is talked.

  Does it not dawn on the cart witnesses?

  by jambon1 in

  2. friends

  i sat in town recently, right in the window of a nice wee pub.

  within minutes i realised that i had a perfect view of a jw cart and the two ridiculously dressed jw's (they have absolutely no individuality at all.

  what's more, they all look like they're going to a funeral).

  My grandson did a class report on the effect of cart Witnesses in Chicago. His

  finding, the hours he watched not one person stopped to talk. He observed people

  looking the other way when passing the cart and the JW's seem not to be interesting

  in talking to anyone. He concluded the Witnesses are definitely advertising in his area, their

  carts are everywhere. Is it a waste of time? Well maybe but their God (Jehovah) name is out there in

  the faces of folks.

  smiddy: It doesn't make sense "God blessing the nation they still had such diseases".

  Come on, God should have known what cause Leprosy. And still in Jesus day it was still

  viewed as unclean spiritually.
