Jehovah's Witnesses Crimes Against Fellow Jehovah's Witness Victims
by Hecce ini ran a search and it seems that this was not posted before, there are 5 pages of criminal cases involving jws.. in the following criminal cases, the watchtower society - jehovah's witnesses religion served as the spiritual element of the perpetrator's and/or other actor's formative environment, or otherwise served as a major influencer of the perpetrator's and/or other actor's behavior.
the following cases are often tragic, and speak for themselves.. http://jwdivorces.bravehost.com/familicide4.html.

Three part story in Germany's Der Tagesspiegel (26 July 2017)
Why a young father left the Jehovah's Witnesses (Part One)
He believed. To the end of the world, the mission, the community. Then he got two sons - and went out to the Jehovah's Witnesses. Oliver Wolschke pays a high price for this.GOOGLE TRANSLATE: https://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=de&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tagesspiegel.de%2Fthemen%2Freportage%2Fberliner-aussteiger-warum-ein-junger-vater-die-zeugen-jehovas-verliess%2F20111338.html

The "slave's" dogma depicts Satan as being more powerful than Jehovah!
by The Fall Guy inaccording to the org's "guardians of doctrine," (g.o.d.
's) the figurative woman who's mentioned in revelation chapter 12 is none other than god almighty's heavenly organization - with its myriads upon myriads of powerful spirit creatures.. it-2 p. 187 - "it would follow that the “woman” is god’s “wife,” the “jerusalem above,” the “mother” of christ and his spiritual brothers.

freddo: Hi "The Fall Guy".
Inverted commas?
I get completely what you are saying about why would God's heavenly organisation be fearful of Satan the babysnatcher? Good thought provoking post.
Yes, though according to WT that doesn't make 'God' himself less powerful than 'Satan' - as the OP referenced, Rev 12:6 says that the 'Woman / Heavenly Organisation' seeks refuge in a place actually prepared by 'God'.

Complaining? No, just trying to divert people away from examining what the cult's own literature says - something which seems to touch a nerve with you. Interesting.
haha - I think accuracy is important, whoever you quote from, and whatever you support.
Your OP seems to be making some unsubstantiated jumps in reasoning in order to get to a conclusion, that was all.
My spelling isn't always great, sorry about that.
(PS: In terms of accuracy, you might be interested in my comments regarding what Gerrit Lösch said about the NWT of the Bible here: https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/4677832330444800/_post/5710704034185216 - interestingly the poster I was replying to hasn't posted here since then )

by pale.emperor inhttp://www.canberratimes.com.au/act-news/former-jehovahs-witness-jailed-for-historical-sex-offences-against-young-sisters-20170724-gxhjcb.html.
sentences in bold are mine:.
a canberra man has been jailed for historical sex offenses against two teenage girls in his church in 2004.. the 56-year-old former jehovah's witness pleaded guilty to touching one's backside as she leaned in to log on to their home computer for him.. he also pleaded guilty to lifting another girl onto his lap and placing his hand on her genitals for two to three minutes.

p.s. Why are YOU using italics and bold lettering in both of your responses????????????
Why not? I wasn't complaining.
But now you come to mention the formating and stuff, yeah it kinda reminds me now..... there was also The Searcher who used to post here quite a lot, but unfortunately they stopped posting about a month ago just before you started actually, which is a pity as you'd probably have liked The Searcher's postings. They where interesting, I know I enjoyed them.

I'm missing something here. I think if you read the part which you've personally highlighted, I did actually say "GOD'S omnipotence. I never said anything about the WOMAN being omnipotent.
haha - then in view of the thread title and your OP, what you've said just doesn't make sense - actually what you say 'disproves' your title - you're mixing up 'God / Jehovah' with 'Woman / Wife / Jerusalem Above'
Your thread title should be "The "slave's" dogma depicts Satan as being more powerful than Jehovah's Wife (Woman / Jerusalem Above)"
Otherwise your reasoning appears to be verging on a 'strawman' principle'.
And actual believe has nothing to do with it
The concept is called - devil's advocate - which can be very useful valuable
The opposite I supppose it called - confirmation bias - which can be very dangerous

Since verses 6,13,14,15,& 16 all depict the "woman" as having to run away and get shelter and protection from Satan, it doesn't put God's omnipotence in a good light, does it?
Why?
It is 'God' who is omnipotent - NOT the 'woman / wife / jerusalem above'
Thus it is 'God' that Revelation 12:6 says provides protection to the 'woman'
