Child Abuse - "I don't care. I haven't got any children".
by cofty inearlier this week i bumped into a couple of jws who i recognised from the cult cart.
a few months ago i had a long conversation with him one of them and found him to be quite friendly.
he is new to the area in the years since i left.. this time he was very defensive and said he wasn't allowed to talk to me.

This comment doesn't surprise me as JWs don't feel any kind of moral or ethical obligation to help mankind in general- not just kids.
JWs don't discriminate against kids they don't help anyone.
What do they provide for the community? Well lets examine what they do actually do for mankind.
Soup kitchens... ah no,
women'shelters? No, meetings might count , but to hell with them for the rest of the week.
blankets for the homeless maybe? No, couldn't even use the shit magazines as a blanket.
rehab centres for drug addicts ? No, haha not likely.
clean water for kids in africa ? No, let em read the bible when they get hungry or thirsty so sayeth the WT.
Protecting children from pedophiles? Hahaha ....oh that's a good one.

Daughter of Elder Reinstated Within Months!
by disillusioned 2 ina young sister in my husband's congregation who is the daughter of an elder has been reinstated in a matter of months.
whereas another sister in the same congregation has been disfellowshipped now for nearly two years!.
seems like it's who you know..

Two years and no reinstatement!
Man, I'd be asking "who have you got to sleep with to get reinstated around here?"
Which, ironically would result in her being part of the "back row club" for another two years.

Why hasn’t someone gotten real pissed off yet?
by John Aquila ini keep reading of some guy who is so upset at someone that he goes into a theater and shoots 20 people..
or a kid that is so mad that the other kids made fun of him that he goes to school and shoots a bunch of kids..
or some guy that was fired from his job and he goes back and shoots of bunch of his workers.

Sadly, some people's hatred for the borg turns inward resulting in depression, low self-esteem, social isolation and anxiety. -

DOES BELIEF IN THE BIBLE DESTROY ONE'S INTELLECTUAL CAPACITY?
by TerryWalstrom inbased on information to be found at: http://www.csicop.org/si/show/when_dont_the_highly_educated_believe_in_evolution_the_bible_believers_effe/.
the bible-believers effect.
those who believe the bible is the word of god (bible believers) and those who dont believe the bible is the word of god (bible nonbelievers) differ in their beliefs that humans evolved from earlier species of animals.

Destroy? I would like to think of it like an addiction and like any addiction it probably disables thinking ability for a while but rehabilitation is possible. -

Distructive Narcissistic Leadership and The Governing Body
by Brokeback Watchtower inhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/narcissistic_leadership.
narcissistic leadership is a leadership style in which the leader is only interested in him/herself.
their priority is themselves - at the expense of their people/group members.

Don't the instructions for cart use state they have to wait for someone to approach them?
Then they direct them to the web site.
Easy-peasy-pioneasy!

So much "growth"! JW Land double sided coin
by thedepressedsoul ini'm finding it more and more funny how every wt article for the public or congregation, including jw broadcast talks about all this "growth" and how fast jehovha's organization is speeding up!
yet everything behind closed doors, insider information, elder letters and sales paint a very different picture.
i have news for you gb members!

I imagine anything used for reading could be called a "literacy aid."
And they do offer free home lessons in the form of a bible "study."
