Watchtower admits, "We are like the Catholic Church"
by Juan Viejo2 incalvin rouse describes himself as "general counsel for the national organization of jehovah's witnesses out of brooklyn, new york.".
while representing one of the defendants during a trial held in san mateo county court in redwood city, california, on february 22, 2012, rouse made this amazing statement:.
"ordinarily, i wouldn't be here, but this is one our 13,000 congregations in the united states.

Do you still have trouble shedding the 'watchtower filters' at times?
by AK - Jeff ini have fully rejected the false religion of jehovah's witnesses - after 43 years a believer in the nonsense.
now though, i often find that i still filter the world thru watchtower spectacles, even after almost three years out.
i don't do it on purpose, in fact i defy the wt doctrine whenever i can and work hard to change my mindset to more 'moderate christian' thinking.

Took my mom to lunch the other day...
by tall penguin inif you've read my previous posts you'll know that my relationship with my mom has had its ups and downs since i left the org.
while my parents (both jw) still speak to me, the relationship has been strained.
well, this past week i got up the courage to call her and invite her to lunch, something we haven't done since i da'd last august.

Governing Body and their sins
by moanzy ini was just reminiscing about things i remember being said to me by elders about disfellowshipping.
a person can be disfellowshipped because of gross sin(could mean anything), being unrepentant etc.
an elder said to me that a person may be disfellowshipped even though he is repentant if it is gross sin and his sin widely known.. so my question is why doesn't this also apply to the governing body?
