^ I agree, after the first sentence it will be tossed. That's why I'm not writing a d'a letter. I know nothing I'd write would go farther then maybe the first 2 lines. I know they are evil and we know they are evil, telling them they are... ah not so much. they think and always will think they are the right hand of god. sometimes getting it out on paper is mentaly helpful. But well written anyway.

Protect the elderly
by defender of truth inthis weeks km is telling elders to arrange for group studies with people in local nursing homes, with instructions on how to word things when speaking to the directors etc.. they are clearly trying to get to people who may not be entirely able to think for themselves or who may lack critical thinking and yet may have money to leave to them.. what can you do?.
well, if you wanted to, write a short and simple letter or email to your local care home, perhaps directly even speak to the director yourself... warn them about the brainwashing and danger of breaking up of families etc.
the km says they should identify themselves as jw's... .

in my experience, nursing homes rarely let church groups proselytize. most are choir groups to sing to residents or children groups coming in to visit etc. There's always an assorted church group that visits. If there's a resident that has a family "preacher" they will visit that resident. But to have a group come in for bible studies, from who I know that has been an administator at health care facilities, they just don't allow it. It can upset families who are not of that faith. but children singing, piano playing, sing-a-longs, christmas programs etc, they don't mind. Call and ask a nursing home if you can do a bible study in the dining room after lunch and see what responce you will get, probably a big no.
I hope this is an epic fail for most who try.

Since they don't own it...
Would this prevent them from having youtube remove videos that have their JW.org mentioned within apostate videos? Since no copyrights are held?

Was reading about beards and ran across enough info in one night to say I wasn't going back period. So I've not been back in a few months. It's been rough but I'm a grown ass woman and no one is making me walk through those doors again. period.

Anyone going to the memorial this year?
by Pyramid God ini was invited by my parents, and even though i have nothing but contempt for this religion, things have been good in our relationship so i was considering going just to appease them.
anyone else?.

No, but have been given invitations twice.
I think they're really trying to get inactive JWs or faders to come to the M. I noticed last year that our numbers were down, and seem to be going down every year. Use to be a packed house. But last year there were a number of empty seats. I noticed a few of the "M" once a year JWs weren't there. You know the ones that only come once a year. I guess they don't want to print a number less than last years.

What is definition of a true friend, once outside the cult?
by suavojr inafter leaving the cult of jw's or waking up to ttatt, it is a struggle to trust people again.
i am personally starting from scratch although i am still in.
each moment i spend with my current jw friends, i know they are all smiles and loving towards me because of my good status with the wt.. outside a cult you still find fake people and it is also a struggle to find true friends and it is even worst when we've been hit hard from people we used to trust and care for.. .

If I close my eyes and visualize the auditorium filled with ones I know from my Khall. I'd not pick them as friends on the outside. Most were not true friends. None have called since I've left. Only elders asking if we believe in the GB, wth.
I've realised the people I've known on the outside were actually good people. They never judged me according to meeting attendance, FS or how spiritual I was. They never asked to borrow things and not return them. Ask to help them move, paint, loan money. But ones in that mental picture, I can go row by row, and say; mooch, bum, abuser, brown-noser, double-life and on and on... the worst were the ones I tried to be friends with but just couldn't handle all their drama, stuff they could have put an end to...stupid kids, no money etc. I wanted to be a good friend to all, but got burnt so many times. It was all so conditional. But ones on the outside, just a little different. I wouldn't screw over a worldy friend, they're smart enough to walk away, but not within the khall you had to forgive.. because we are imperfect. Got tired of hearing that line of bull.
Don't be afraid of finding new friends, we're working on that now. It's not a scary as JWs want you to believe.

How Do You Come to Terms with Being Just One of the 7 Billion?
by will-be-apostate inbeing a jw makes one feel special, no doubt.
when i found out ttatt i realized i'm not special at all.
i'm just one of the other 7 billion human beings who will live and die being nobody, the world will forget about them (and i'm not talking about relatives and friend), they didn't make anything special in their life, they didn't change the course of history, were not famous nor rich, didn't invent facebook, google or anything awesome, didn't have an article published in newscientist, had no imdb profil, not even a wiki page, didn't write a book etc.
