How about "discovered?"
(I have no idea of whether or not one genuinely becomes gay or not - I think some are definitely genetically wired that way - I do think that others experiment sexually.)

Leo Greenless - was he jailed?
by berrygerry init would appear that leo fought the cdn draft on the grounds of being a minister, which he was denied.. did he go to prison?.

What should the WBT$ do to get on track?
by punkofnice init looks as if the gb are blundering around and really showing themselves up for the buffoons they are.
all the stupidity about tight trousers is laughable and if the general public were to see these selfmportant cult leaders blabbing this stuff then the last shred of their credibility would be destroyed.........perhaps.. the wbt$ seem to have dug themselves into a deep pit of no escape with their lies, new light(tm), paedophile protection and all the other nauseating peripherals they have.. we also suspect that the wbt$ have their spies here because they are either predictable or get ideas form forums like this.. so!
are you listening watchtower(r)?

When I came across this forum 6 months or so back, I was of the opinion that 1 or 2 things needed changing, for the improvement of the Borg.
I pestered a few members, who said it was unreformable.
After much research, observation, and painful personal experience, I have come to the same conclusion.
Anyone who has taken an Organizational Behaviour course will know that this Organization cannot change.
It will decrease over the coming years - what it's eventual shape or form will be is indeterminate.

I've had 6 JW friends and acquaintences that committed suicide. But I didn't.
Sad. I know the same number. I know ZERO worldly people. ???
The Watchtower life is the same. Things change and what was important in your life then is no longer important now
Sorry R & R, I need to strongly disagree.
Not only have so many of us wasted our lives, many have also lost all friendships AND FAMILY.
A lousy job or any other poor decision does not take away your loved ones as WTS does.

JW Child Custody.
by Celestial inupon first glimpse, i thought this was a specialized service of a legitimate law firm, but as it turns out, it's simply a selective presentation of exploitable religious issues enacted by a former elder (william bowen).. http://jwchildcustody.com/ .
dont allow your children to be turned against you!.
statistics show that over 1,000 custody cases are fought each year involving jehovahs witness children.

As for alleged "Watchtower attorneys" in a child custody case, I've never been aware of any legal representation appointed by the Watchtower society to individual congregation members for the purposes of family law. It could be that I've been misinformed.
Yes, you have been misinformed.

Why does it seem that so many wake up after decades?
Do you think WTS analyzes these numbers?

A Non J-Dub paying a visit to KingDumb Hall!
by J-DUBBED ini was thinking of doing a pop-in visit when they're doing their thing(what ever that might be).
to just see what it is that lures and hooks people, like our son.
i was worried there is some sort of subliminal messages in audio or video that start to brain-wash a person.

It's the love-bombing that hooks new folks. The love that quickly disappears from most JW's once the newbie is baptized.
The only non-born-in that I've seen baptized in a decade was remarkably love-bombed.
I remember all of the old pioneer tricks, have your Bible Student over for meals so you count easy time.
Once dunked, she was abandoned like nuclear waste.
She always looked lost, lonely, and puzzled at the meetings. "Where did the love go?"
