For me it was the Malawi situation. There was no justification at all for that. Money/abuse I can understand, people are people. To just ignore a obvious inconsistency where people are being KILLED is almost unforgivable in my mind.

Of money and power to the point of bloodguiltiness, blasphemy, and I pretty sure "sinning against the Spirit"

As a mother, the pedophile cases have been really bad. Even the current policy is ridiculous. I think all families should be warned if there is a pedophile in their midst.

wow, some very awesome thoughts so far! Awake and Watching: I was listening to that song this morning on the way to work, totally a great application. Blueblades: That is quite an inciteful thought. I've never thought of it in that sense, that a solitary belief has led to so many actions that have affected millions of people for over a century. I suppose it goes to show the power of even just one thought or belief, regardless of whether it's right or wrong.

The blood and fraction pathetic unscriptural policy forced on all JW's even if death results.
The fact that one cannot disagree with any current WT teachings.
Shunning those that disassociate from the JW's without practicing sin.
Believing that they alone are the "one true faith" and all others are false and to be destroyed soon.
Keeping JW membership in the dark as to its sorry past.

Don't forget MuffinEggs in the 80's.
Water boarding is nothing compared to being forced to gag down one of those things.

If you are TRULY Christ like - all other things, abuse, DFing, cover ups all fall into place. Christ just would not have done any of those things

Not having grown up a JW or ever practicing, I would have to say shunning, disfellowshipping, or any aspect of them separating families. Growing up in a tight knit family, that is veeeerrryyy hard for me to comprehend.
