    Hi all,

    New here!!, What a god- dam excellent site. I left the jws 7 years ago and still have a sister in there.

    My mother has also now left and as a result has been banned from seeing her grandchildren by my sister, yet her father inlaw a jw and convicted peodophile ( he repented so its all ok now!!!) can have unrestricted access because he's part of Jehovahs wonderfull organization. Its crazy to think that we are considered a bigger danger to them than someone like that.

    Anyway i moved accross town a few years ago and now am in another cong's district, i' ve only had a couple of visits from the hovahs in that time, unfortunetly i never get a return visit but have great fun when they call.

    BTW One of my old elders was convicted eairlier this year of indecent assualt of two children in my old cong and had other wittnesses give character referances saying how wonderful he was and they would leave children in his care.

    Oh yeah just heard my old cong just been kicked out of the building they use as a kingdom hall,

    ELHOIM, hello and welcome. Consider yourself amongst friends, real friends, not the conditional crap you saw in the Kingdumb Hells.

    I am one of the more fortunate ones, not having any family that was also a JW, other than my now exwife and her brood. Their choice, so no big loss for me. I hope your sister wakes up and sees what she is losing out, as well as her kids, by shunning, which is no more than emotional blackmail to keep the rank and file in line.

    I look forward to hearing more of your story and what you contribute.

    Hi Elhoim,

    Unfortunatly your story is not unusual at all. I am glad you and your mother are out though. Give your sister time and she may change her mind. I am still holding out hope for half of my family but we shall see.

    Welcome!

    Welcome to the board,

    I still have family that is still in the borg as well, a brother and a mother. The rest of us keep working on them and hoping some day they will see the real "truth" and come out. Hope all is well with you.

    ELHOIM,

    Welcome to this "god- dam excellent site"

    Im happy your mother has left and is with you!

    I am sorry about your Sisters behavior!

    I think when many find out the truth about the troof they will be shamed of their BAD, UN-CHRISTIAN like behavior!

    By the way I know of 3 pedophiles in my last cong!! Never reported by the elders!!

    I was so upset when the elders counseled one of my friends to take her pedophile husband back I called Child Protective Services!!

    My friend was MAD at 1 st , but forgave me later. She was glad it was taken out of her hands and that I was the one displeasing God and not her! lol

    Oh well.

    Welcome again!!!

    Agape,

    Para ti....
