That is OK to say, "Wait on Jehovah", in child abuse cases, but the children in this organisation cannot wait on Jehovah for even one more day, that is how serious this is. TODAY is the day to take decisive action on this matter. TODAY is the day to walk out and take your children with you or just walk out yourself. Vote with your feet, your brains and most importantly your money. Get out of her my people if you do not want to share in her sins (crimes).

Wife just found out I won't be attending the Memorial this year!
by FadeToBlack inmy wife is staying with 'friends' out of town recovering from surgery on her foot.
i called to see how she was healing up and mentioned that i hope she gets back on her feet before i leave for the states to visit family (all non-witness) in april.
i begged her to postpone this surgery until i got back, but she did not forsee any problems.we will see.. anyway, it dawned on her that i won't be here to attend the memorial and she said: you are probably happy about that.

Free to leave at any time...it doesn't sound like it to me!
Would she rather have you unhappy and a slave to a religion you no longer want or happy? I'd rather be married to a happy person, personally. Many couples can live happily together when one is in and the other out. She should know of examples of that.

According to Oct.1st 2012 WT Directions- Past Child Molesters CAN Be Appointed Elders
by flipper inconsidering the fact that the wt society refuses to release in courts any of it's written directions to elders through confidential letters to elder bodies- i thought i'd do the courts and wt society a "favor " by posting excerpts from this oct 1st.
2012 letter from the wt society to all bodies of elders.
these instructions are very exposing of the negligence of wt authorities in how they view the seriousness of felony child abuse.

It is not the reason I left but one of the reasons I would never go back and a very important one. A former child molester in the cong is bad enough, but to be in an appointed position is inexcusable, no ifs or buts about it. There is no holy spirit in an organisation that even considers a former child molester as suitable to be a part of the cong in any capacity. This topic alone, forget everything else on this forum and I mean everything, should wake up every elder who sees these letters.
Thank you Mr Flipper for bringing this to our attention once again. It can never be talked about too much. Things cannot be fixed in the org from the top down, so we must attempt to fix from the bottom up if that makes sense.

My grandmother was interested in the witnesses or bible students as they were known in the 1920's. She was never baptised but left disgruntled over something around the late 20's. My mother never fully understood why, she was only a child then. Maybe all this information may be the key as to what happened and why my grandmother left. I will read it with interest when I get some time. -

Local needs talk
by hoser inone of the elders was missing his service bag and suspected that one of the publishers stole it.
he was determined to root out who did it so he decided to give a local needs part on the ten commandments focusing on you must not steal.. he enlisted the help of a trusted ministerial servant and got him to stand at the back of the kingdom hall during the part.
he told the ms that he would read off the ten commandments and when he got to the one "you must not steal" he would pause longer than usual and see if anyone acted nervous or suspicious.

Five Jehovah Witnesses Arrested for Failing to Donate Blood to Their Anaemic Child - Malawi
by AFRIKANMAN inby arnold namanja.
police in mangochi have arrested five members of a family for failing to donate blood to their 7-year old anaemic child due to religious beliefs, malawi news agency has established.. the five have been identified as 34 year old simon kamwendo (father of the child), his grandfather bernard kamwendo, 69, brothers solomon and divason mwabwino, both 21, and byson chidandala an uncle to the child.. failure to provide a child with necessities contravenes section 242 of the penal code, hence the arrest of the five who belong to the jehovah's witness faith.. a source, macdonald danger told mana that medical doctors at koche health centre diagnosed the boy of malaria with anaemia and recommended blood transfusion, but the five rejected the prescription.. "the child was suffering from malaria and was taken to koche health centre where it was discovered that he was anaemic and needed blood," he said.. "when asked to donate, all the five guardians who are family members refused to do so saying that their faith does not allow them to receive or to donate blood," danger added.. .
according to danger, the resistance prompted officials at the hospital to seek the intervention of makolola police unit, which led to the arrests.. mangochi police station public relations officer, inspector rodrick maida confirmed the arrests of the five jehova's witness members.. "we arrested the five following a report from koche clinic which asked for our intervention in the matter whereby these people were refusing to donate blood to a patient who needed to be saved from dying," he said.. he said the five will soon appear before the court to answer to a charge of failing to provide necessities to a child under their care.. all the five hail from mapata village in the area of traditional authority mponda in mangochi.. .

Yes I remember my dad had them turned into one bible. He had little cutouts of the bible books on the edge of the pages like some large dictionaries have the alphabet cutouts.
Wasanelder Once, you have been around too long too. It is fun to remember all this old stuff from back in the days when being in the truth was hard work but more fun and it actually seemed to be more like the truth than it is today.

I remember the green songbook too. DoC, you and I have been around the borg way too long.
i also remember my dad having the NWT bible released in stages. The first went from Genesis to Deuteronomy, I think then the second went from Joshua to 2 Chronicles or something like that. Anyway there were about five or six small volumes, all hard covered of the whole bible. You needed a trolley to go to the KH in those days.
