I do not believe that this scripture was requiring the woman to scream, but purely that the language illustrates this was done against her will.

What "Two Witness" Rule?

by Amazing in

jw
friends

someone please show me where the watchtower society has stated, in cases of serious sin, the rule that requires "two witnesse" to the event or act!

at best, one or two witnesses are preferred!

period ... but if there are no witnesses, then other evidence can be presented to witnesses or the elders.

Deuteronomy 22:25 But if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her: then the man only that lay with her shall die:

Deuteronomy 22:26 But unto the damsel thou shalt do nothing; [there is] in the damsel no sin [worthy] of death: for as when a man riseth against his neighbour, and slayeth him, even so [is] this matter:

Deuteronomy 22:27 For he found her in the field, [and] the betrothed damsel cried, and [there was] none to save her.

This scripture and law from God clearly didn't require any witness other than the wronged one. Surely this makes a complete liar of the Borganisation which requires two witnesses for rape, incest and child abuse.

Even so, the second witness is frequently present from forensics and still there are accounts of JW Elders denying those two witnesses (ie. the abused one and the forensic evidence) and standing alongside the one who should be condemned.

The Transsexual They Wouldn't Let Pee

in a congregation some years ago, the elders had a major issue to deal with.

a transexxual woman became interested in studying the bible with the witnesses.

she was invited to go to the meetings.

yeah, the irony is that the bigots saved that person from a life of control and ignorance

as with all things watchtower, people are secondary - the wt would say secondary to God, but we know it's secondary to their current infantile interpretations

i came home today to find my wife with some ladies from the church - they were having a meeting about going door-to-door and handing out leaflets inviting people to come to church.

they asked me if i could print out a leaflet that they could photocopy.

this was my contribution:.
