in short:- tight pants is no longer just a am3 hang up (or is that a hang up on the well hung?
)- brothers who have effeminate body language are flagged up- as are sisters with 'masculine' hair styles or dress- such dress is 'disturbing to the congregation'- the above must heed the (repeated) counsel from the elders...or they get stripped of the right to share on the ministry- however...this will not be revealed (announced) to the congregation.
wow.
The LGBT people have no place whatsoever inside the JWs. People that show any weird behavior are flagged, made fun of and excluded as much as possible.
None survive in the long run. All the ones I have known of eventually leave. Specially in the Hispanic congs; the vast majority of Hispanics want no part of the LGBT behavior.
Sorry.

just saw this on the public area of jwtalk (i am not a member).
here is the link.. http://jwtalk.net/forums/topic/23523-privvy-news/.
such a shame - i do feel for these ones - i just don't know what to say.... wgo.
Delusional to the 100th power.
Yesterday's study of the watchtower felt like really crazy talk.

hello everyone.. first post here.
long time follower of this website, probably 4 years now.
i've known about ttatt since ive been 18, im now 22 going on 23 but still go to meetings because of parents.
Welcome.

how many of us were woken up by some apostate yelling false prophets at a convention?.
how many of us were woken up by someone holding a sign and yelling, what happened to 1975.
how many of us were coerced to investigate the wt because some ex-jw pulled up a bunch of old watchtowers magazines and told us to read the false predictions?.
I coincidentally fell into this web page and the rest is history.

based on what we've seen, it seems to me that of the seven, splane and jackson are the smartest; herd, lett and morris the least intelligent; and sanderson and losch somewhere in the middle.
.
what's your impression?.
All extremely intelligent in their own right. I mean, they do NOTHING (their helpers and helpers' helpers DO!!!) and manage to be worshipped and live like kings!!!
SL
has 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.
I will no longer contribute monetarily to any cause of the WTBTS. However, undoubtedly, my family will more than make up for it.

artemis 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/ .
Awesome!

i 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.

Welcome!
SL
thank you all for your sincere encouragement during these last few weeks.
finally, she is at peace.
i was with her , holding her hand when she died.
May the good memories of your mother live on and provide comfort.
