WT Society Makes Light of Child Abuse Crimes by Portraying them as Cartoons

by flipper in

i commented on this on another thread- but i believe this has enough importance to create a thread about this situation in and of itself.

at the current district convention as you know the wt society released a " sophie & caleb " video allegedly warning parents about the dangers of child abuse.

they don't really use the words " child abuse " in the video - but just say if " someone tries to touch you in a manner you aren't comfortable with " and portray it as a cartoon !

cartoon teachings for a cartoon cult religion......i straight up tell my kids what kind of people to look out for. i show them the people on the sex offender list and show them they look like normal people.

i tell them not to trust anyone, especially witnesses.....my wife says the same as me.

if they do get approached or touched to come to us....i will let the local police know....i will persecute and if it is happening and i catch it....I WILL TERMINATE THE SORRY EXCUSE OF A PERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why using Jehovah for God's name is as good as using Yahweh

by oppostate in

in another thread i wrote some notes about why using jehovah in english is as good as using yahweh.

i'm starting a discussion on this topic because it sounds quite ignorant to hear people talk of the monk who started using it in latin without really understanding why the monk did so.. the spanish dominican monk, raymundus martini, in 1270, didn't get hoodwinked by an old jewish superstition about pronouncing the divine name with the vowel points of another word.. 1. first the vowel points of adonay and jehovah cannot be the same for grammatical reasons.

you just can't use the same vowel points because some vowels aren't paired with some consonants in pronouncing hebrew words.

oppostate.... lets review.......... it's a mindcontrolling CULT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you could refute this, than do so!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thought only JWs were doing the preaching work world wide?

by ducatijoe in

as one of jehovah's witnesses for over 40 years, i was always taught that we were the only ones who went door to door, preached world wide, built our own buildings and so on.. however in the past year living in the south, not 1 jw has knocked on my door.

yet 4 various people from local churches have.. tonight i meet a young man who is preaching with a group in china (baptist) a block away i watched a congregation build their own church.. i could go on all night with the thing i have found to be un true with the org.. glad i'm out.

i showed my wife in 2 cor 4:5

5 For we are preaching, not ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as YOUR slaves for Jesus’ sake

So i told her, when you preach door to door, you should be preaching about christ. not handing out magazines, would jesus hand out magazines?
yep, her cognitive disonance kicked in......she is so blinded.
i hate this cult

Caleb & Sophia RC badges

by oppostate in

take a look at this caleb & sophia rc badge for children.. .

what's the motivation to make special childrens' badges?

i smell indoctrination!.

goingthruthemotions

LOL, what a shame, brainwashing the youth.

So we went to the Assembly without badges....my wife asked me. where are our badges? didn't you get some? i said no! didn't you? so i asked, when did this become my responsibility?

end of conversation and we didn't end up having any badges, which was great.

i hate this cult!!!!!!!!!

Getting it out of my system, a VERY long introduction/outpouring..

by adimmedlight in

warning, novel ahead:.

after a few months of lurking on this site, i've decided to take the plunge...i don't really care so much about introducing myself, but somehow there is some relief in the thought of getting my little story out there, just getting it out of my system.

i am the oldest of 5 kids.

Time heals all wounds......give your mind a rest and just live. you could come back later and straighten it out when you in a better state of mind.

Don't worry, Armagedon is not coming and neither is the the great tribulation. it's all a rouse.

give your mind a rest young one and live like there is no tomorrow.

pm me if you would like someone to talk with.

Massive Growth in Dub Numbers???

by 1rebelheart in

jw
friends

so, i left about 5 years ago and at that time, the official ruling on number of members was a little over 6 million.

i google jw out of boredom the other day and find they are now claiming 8 million members.

sooooo.... hold on 2 million increase in 5 years?

goingthruthemotions

So i heard from someone at the assembly that the GB baffoons are saying the 67000 witness die a year. and that 5300 get baptized every weekend or around 275,600 a year. when you consider the amount of followers that get DF'd a year or become inactive.

without even calculating the growth, i just don't see how they could actually say they have over 8 million JWombie followers.

and what about us that are awake and have to go to the shite because a loved one is still binded.

i don't see the seats being filled at the asseblies nor the halls.

Remember, it's a cult!! i wish it would just go away

Videos at the a$$emb£ies?

by punkofnice in

my spies tell me that they are getting shown videos very regularly at the 2 day convention(tm).. i figured it may be because the wbt$ wants mass indoctrination using their tried and tested propaganda techniques.. the average elder won't be aware that the wbt$ uses these thought reform techniques so will be incapable of using them himself.

also, the elder might not put the money grabbing, 1984 ministry of truth spin on things and actually say something good instead.

we know the wbt$ don't like 'good'!

goingthruthemotions

the video suck....both my son's think they suck...once the video come on, they shut off....while my wife is drinking it up like it is the fountain of life.
