It is actually a GOOD thing that the Society and the GB act in such hypocritical ways!
It will help more and more Witnesses awaken to the fact that the org is a dangerous cult....

OK, I have watched it right through now, and sadly I think it is legit!
I think it is actually a video designed to show them the CORRECT way of handling things! I had hoped it was a video showing how NOT to handle matters...but alas...they really are that arbitrary and legalistic and full of self importance!

Is this one of those videos where they show what NOT to do, then use that as a basis for discussion in the elders meeting??
The GB have done that in the past. (remember that video a few years back showing the wrong way to console a sister who lost her husband to death?)

Joe attends Iglesia Ni Christo church service
by joe134cd inwell i have heard various comments about them on here, so last week i decided to do an internet search on them.
i was quite surprised to find there was an inc in my local area and ironically only meters away from the kh.. it was very interesting to say the least, and in the short time i was there i could quite understand how they get there reputation as a high control religion if not a cult.
in some respects i think they are probably more jw than the jws.. let me explain how my visit went.

Good thread Minimus.
As with all forms of grieving, there is a process:
The stages of grief apply to awakening from the grips of a cult.
There is the Denial, the Anger, the Bargaining, the Depression, and the Acceptance.
Most here on this forum are more level headed than other communities, and have travelled the path of grief.
I look back at my early days here, and see that I am a far more balanced, and hopefully mature person that I was back then...

I am getting disfellowshipped
by CitizenofEarth inmaybe some of you remember me, maybe not.
for general information i am now 19 years old, and living by myself.
for the past 1 year (more like 1.5 years) i have been quietly fading out of the hypocrisy of this organization, but since i still live in the town i grew up in it has been hard, and filled with different challenges.

Wow ttdtt!
Thanks for posting those links and the scans of the letters!
I randomly looked through several of those, including the one from the Circuit Overseer, and others from the Branch office, and what did I notice?? Of course: NO WHERE did the society or its representatives direct that the Law Authorities be informed of these issues!
Does the Society simply not get it?? Are they that insular and self-righteous to neglect telling the Police about these matters?
They are clearly more concerned about keeping their "reputations" in tact, and "protecting Jehovah's name"...But failing to see that their inaction is actually having the OPPOSITE effect! It brings reproach on them!
I want to give full praise and credit to whoever revealed these letters!! Well done and Thankyou to this brave and honest hearted person!

Yes, it is very comforting to see that someone within the inner circle at Bethel must have leaked these documents!!
May they continue to follow the promptings of their conscience and bring these things to light! The GB has shown callous disregard for doing the right thing, but someone in Bethel however is showing their humanity and honesty!
Bravo whoever you are! Keep it up!
