I will no longer contribute monetarily to any cause of the WTBTS. However, undoubtedly, my family will more than make up for it.

Another Resolution
by truthlover inhas anyone on the board been at the recent meeting where they are asking for more money to help out the co's, insurance and health and travel??
this is supposed to go into a general fund???
they can use it for anything they want..... oh, and also, if you can give more, it would help as many congregations may not be able to give - based on number of pubs in each cong.

Australian Legal firm to take on class action lawsuits against JW's
by sherrie11 inartemis legal offers litigation church abuse and immigration services.
artemis legal has launched an inquiry into group or class action against the jehovahs witness in australia.
this follows criticism by the australian royal commission into the institutional responses to child sexual abuse that revealed flaws in the deeply secretive religions attitude to dealing with child abuse and in response to a spike in recent enquiries to the sydney based law firm.. http://www.artemislegal.com.au/jehovahwitness/ .

Is the end of Watchtowers hated No Blood doctrine in sight?
by nicolaou ini won't pretend to know things that i don't but just look at the incredible rate of change we've witnessed recently.
it seems that since candace conti and the australian royal commission the watchtower are scrabbling around to shore up their finances in the face of unprecedented legal action against them.. abuse settlement claims are one thing but what happens when children die as a result of your religious teachings?!
you can bet wt legal are arguing for a complete rewrite of policy to protect the organisation from litigation.. do you think their religious privilege will protect them forever?

They have relaxed it as much as possible with the blood fraction nonsense. The main doctrine, along with disfellowhipping/shunning will NEVER go away. These policies are their cornerstones and strongholds; trademarks of sorts.

Bygone Days of Old Bethel...
by freemindfade insomething occurred to me last night.
people that made their pilgrimage to jw mecca (bethel) would often be excited about some silly things, i say silly because for those of you who were there or lived near enough to be involved in these things regularly they lost their magic.
i am talking about on tours one of the most memorable things people talked about or looked forward to... lunch.

Lunch at any of the Bethel facilities is nothing more than eating badly cooked and presented food at a cheap dinner. I have recently eaten at Walkill, Patterson, and Brooklyn (quite a few Org heavies in my family), and believe me.... it's pathetic lately.

It is always nice to know a person who caused another's death also died. Love that 'eye for an eye' justice stuff.

counting time
by Sabin inyesterday jw knocked on my door, i was sitting in the office with the window right next to it, they couldn't see me & i decided not to answer.
they stood there for what seemed ages & as i watched something hit me.
they were here only because they were on the territory.

Counting time makes liars of all JWs, pioneers being the worst. I submit around the average hrs every month whether I even preached at all that whole month or not.
The practice is hated by all JWs alike.

(Bible's) God will do whatever he wants
by Cota Samuel inhello and excuse my not perfect knowledge of english.
when i've started studying the bible when i was 13 one of the first subjects i was teached was about genesis.
the first two humans were supposedly perfect which by bible's means it meant that they couldn't die nor get ill. this meant that at least humans couldn't get diseases.

God is so loving that he threw Satan down to earth with God-like powers to inflict upon us all harm, distress, despair, confusion, etc. According to His word the Bible, a most powerful invisible spiritual creature with an infinite army of Demons, to cause all sort of damage to humans and creation alike.
God, therefore, engineered the condition under which humanity lives; then administers punishment for it. Ultimately destroying us all when he so desires.
What a loving and merciful God! Sure makes one want to worship such a GOOD God!
