This sounds crazy.
So, having kids is not that great after all!
Pioneering sucks donkey balls! One of the worst ways to waste your time in JW land.

now this is embarrassing.. after being cold in the truth for many, many years, and getting back some 2 years ago, my wife and i, decided to auxiliary pioneer last year during the memorial campaign.
we were quite impressed that we made the 30 hrs.. last month, we decide to do it again.
after handing in our application forms, and being approved, our service overseer asks me, "how many hours are you going to do?".
This sounds crazy.

my jw spies tell me that the kingdom halls are empty compared to how they used to be, since i left 5 years ago.
not saying they're empty because of me though.. is that what you are hearing?.
Empty. Young ones eyes wide open, leaving as soon as they can escape.
Good!

why won't they (the wbt$ head honchos), simply change policy on sex offenders?
will they?..especially after the arc for eg?
it seems that with all the bad press and now the arc among other institutions that are exposing the wbt$ for a haven for paedophiles, why hasn't the wbt$ simply changed it's insane policy?.
I can hardly wait until this blows up here in the States as it has in Australia, forcing the WTBTS into public apologies, reparations and clear policy changes when dealing with sexual or physical abuse.
I bet you that if their tax-free status gets threatened, they will comply with that and more.

i posted this on a pro-jw site:.
this is the official policy sanctioned by the governing body.
it's not about indivuals being molesters/deviants.
Once a child molester, always a child molester. It is just a matter of time and opportunity. Reason why a person should never be given the 'opportunity' by putting them in any position of authority.
I hope this blows up here in the States so that they are fully and loudly exposed and forced into reparations, public apologies and clear policy changes.

anyone ever seen pictures or the actual houses and cars the gb own?
im wondering if the live a middle class lifestyle or more like high society?
They live large! I have relatives who volunteer at the new HQ buildings, and they said their apartments are huge, super luxurious, with boardrooms, offices and all inside each residence.
Sure are following on the steps of JC! Or, is it more like Satan, believing themselves to be gods???

the rothschild family will not allow the aussies to take any significant action against their religious wing (mormons, jws, adventists, etc.).
the worst outcome for the borg will be a relatively small fine and a deadline to change their rules.
that is all..
Change their rules and reporting practices, along with a hefty fine is enough. Progress.
The exposure has done quite a bit of damage too.

day 7 of the australian royal commission has chair justice peter mcclellan raising the point that i have been wondering about all along, which is, how can these elders not report child abuse to the authorities especially when a full confession has taken place?.
justice mcclellan asked toole, the wts's lawyer, if he is aware that there is a difference between an organisation being required to have mandatory reporting of child abuse to the authorities and misprision which is the concealment of a felony, itself a criminal offence?
toole says he is aware of it now but he wasn't before!
Mandatory reporting required. Doubt it. It would mean requiring mandatory reporting, such as confession secrets in other faiths. I do not think that will be imposed on the WTBTS. One can only hope.

i just found these vidoes on youtube, maybe you have seen them already, but i thought i would share.
these canadian kids for me are courageous and inspiring.
more excellent public examples of non vitrial apostate awakening.
My heroes!!!
I can only day dream of having the courage to exit it all, but in reality I can't.
My whole life is ruled by JW stuff, my whole family, my husband, they are all soooo hardcore JWs. Forget about it!

hp became the first city in calif. to appoint two undocumented immigrants.
as commissioners on city advisory.
city picked two immigrants to join the.
The GOP will take care of them along with all other undocumented people. Not undocumented whites, of course!

i felt it might be a good idea to post this so that sitting on the fence jw's or jw lurkers can see that this australia jw child abuse news of 1,006 jw child molesters not being reported to police by elders is a reality that has hit mainstream news media.
i thought this report was very well done.
here's the link : http://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2015/07/28/australia-jehovah-witness-sex-abuse-hannigan-lklv.cnn.
WOW!
Very damaging! Hopefully, policy changes are coming soon!
