  They Will Betray One Another

  by Shakita in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have read the stories of those that have been unceremoniously drummed out of the watchtower, even though they were making an effort to live quietly, without causing "trouble" by telling their friends and relatives of the wt what they really knew about the true history of the jw's.

  the wt's claim that they don't disfellowship those that have left the faith, is a vicious lie.

  it has been disturbing to me and my wife to hear of such good people being ostracized just because they no longer agree with the wt's interpretation of scripture.

  How do you fill your spiritual need , EWjW's?

  by LyinEyes in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  since i am free from the chains of the wt and their rules, i am becoming so much more open minded to looking into other forms of spiritulity.

  i just read comf's thread about his wicca experience and it was soooo interesting .

  i know many on this board have their own way of dealing with their need for spirituality.

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have been wandering around the board for a while now, and have decided it is time to contribute a bit of my history.

  i have described my involvement with the witnesses as being from the outside looking in.

  my sweet honey has been trying for two years to get reinstated.

  Watchtower dissolves congregations?

  by TheStar in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have heard this from jws many times.

  they say that when the whole congregation is corrupt it is clearly noticable that jehovah's spirit is not with them.

  eventually if the whole congregation is corrupt the gb dissolves the whole congregation.. jws say this as if it were from personal experience.

  JW RAPE

  by crawdad2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  the 16 yr old girl get's raped by a 26 yr old ministerial servant,.

  so she goes to the elders about it.. the elders arrange a judicial committe meeting and listen to both sides of the story......... then they go to a room for five minutes and come back, and tell her that they are going to privately reprove both of them.........."furious", she asks what she is being reproved for, and they say "fornication".. they remind both of them to not gossip about it or tell anyone.. because it will bring reproach on jehovahs organization.. the girl, then goes to other elders, and appeals the elders decision, and complains that she got raped!!!

  !.....she gets another committe meeting,,,,,they quickly come to the same decision and warn her to keep quiet,,,,,,,she goes to other elders.....they promise to help her...they believe her, ...days go by.........months go by...........she is in a meeting when they announce that brother rapist has been given a part on the assembly.........everyone claps........she goes back to the elders asking them how it is that he just got a part on the assembly, when he just raped her............they start reminding her to be submissive to the lead or they will take action,.....she can't keep quiet........they anounce that she has been reproved.........she starts speaking out against the whole body of elders,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,bingo, she is disfellowshipped for apostacy, and there is no value to her claims at all,,,,,,,,she was just an apostate fornicater, trying to smear a nice brother.....
