Susan B (formerly known as Driven) and I are going to attend this year's memorial at the Kingdom Hall in person. Because we ceased attending meetings (both live and memorex) over a year ago, we know we will be getting questions as to what we are doing and where we have been. So as to not detract from the beauty of attending the memorial, we are thinking about creating some cards (like business cards) to pass out to those who ask us questions. The cards will of course have our contact info but we also want to insert a little message on the back side, whether it be a scripture or the web address to some of Robert's content, something like that.

- Any ideas?
- What are your plans for this year's memorial?
- Thank you in advance!

NIce, but expect repercussions. PS. You may have heard this - there was a shooting in Germany at a KH and 6 JW's were killed by a former JW. https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/germany-hamburg-jehovah-s-witnesses-church-shooting-1.6774285

A suggestion about the initial post in this thread, concerning handing out cards
rule #1.) Keep your lips zipped
rule #2.) See rule number 1

You will only bring trouble on yourselves; but if that is what you want to do, then so be it

Part of the Borg mentality is to indoctrinate the R&F into a persecution mindset; for what will be seen as such a "brazen" act will just play into that and use it to their advantage as further evidence of persecution.

That is part of the reason why they push door-to-door field circus so much; they tell you that you will be treated badly, and when you are, they say "See you were persecuted". It galvanizes the R&F together and they isolate themselves.

I won't say D2D is completely ineffective, but it is a colossal waste of time. As of now, probably 90-95% of hours are spent riding around, going to Starbucks, and doing pretty much anything else but D2D. There is a reason they don't sell vacuum cleaners and knives door to door anymore.
Then there is always this option:

““Everyone, then, who acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father who is in the heavens. But whoever disowns me before men, I will also disown him before my Father who is in the heavens. Do not think I came to bring peace to the earth; I came to bring, not peace, but a sword. For I came to cause division, with a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. Indeed, a man’s enemies will be those of his own household. Whoever has greater affection for father or mother than for me is not worthy of me; and whoever has greater affection for son or daughter than for me is not worthy of me. And whoever does not accept his torture stake and follow after me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his soul will lose it, and whoever loses his soul for my sake will find it.” (Mt 10:32-39)
