We are all praying fervently for changes to be made in the Society so that we can have our dear lost loved ones back soon. They MUST wake up and see how far they have gone from the love of God that they so heartily purport is theirs and theirs alone!

Oh,Dublover,
I could not agree more! I hope the letters I sent will touch their hearts, at least plant a seed of the REAL truth, maybe to sprout at a time when they are more ready to accept it.

My mother in law just wrote a similar letter, tho not to the elders directly, to her two adult JW children, and was immediately discarded by her son and told never to contact him again. I was astounded at the coldheartedness there...the self righteousness shown, and the incredible pain and hurt she will endure, just for finally standing up for her integrity before God as you just did.

PLEASE give her my love, and share whatever you'd like with her about my situation if it will help her. Email me privately if you'd like to talk, or have her talk..whatever..I'm here for you both.

Its a no win situation...no matter what you do you lose something, either yourself and your love for God and your hate for hypocrisy by staying...or your family and all who are dear to you by leaving. The Society wields the weapon of shunning like a marksman with a gun squarely against the temples of their followers. Im sure God will take care of things in His due time...but I miss my family NOW...and I mourn for them as if they have died. I know they dont mourn for me. The JW mentality dictates that those of us who dare leave MUST suffer...and at THEIR hands, not Gods.

I JUST got through writing to a gal in England on this very subject, but I am still "living under" the Borg's rules because of family members who are subject to them, which affect me as yet...I guess the poisonous tentacles reach on and on...
The "winning" comes in knowing that I have chosen to be free of man's domination over me, and free of the endless meetings, conventions, pre-designed studies and bible readings, banging on doors of folks who are so sick and tired of being pestered, and MOST of all, FREE from FALSE RELIGION, and being enslaved to it!
Take care, and give your dear Mother-in-law a hug from me.....
