this is going to sound crazy.. where we live we heard and saw demons over that time of the child abuse bit.. we also heard 3 million people walked out it was only balanced by 3 million newbies is that true does anyone know ?.

it must be verified of course.. i suufered severe injuries with attacks including police ambulances etc.. there seems to be an awful lot of people outside can we get a damage report to know whats wrong .

Ethical question here, what to do?
by Snapdragon in

2. child-abuse
hey all, i have a hypothetical ethical question.. i know for a fact (having heard directly from the now-adult) a certain man molested at least 2 children in the the 1970's.

of course at the time this wasn't discussed and the creepo has gotten off virtually scott free.. i just found out some interesting medical information on him and was wondering if this should be shared with his victims.. of course this is hypothetical, right, i work in the health care profession and am bound by law not to divulge personal medical history.. that being said: the information of this guy doesn't have a lick to do with the past.

its just interesting.

Fear Of Jehovah's Witnesses Stopped Me From Working Today.
by Englishman in
1. jw
2. friends
ok, so there i am at work today, zooming up and down me ladder as i affix fascia boards, soffiting and guttering to the rear of a customers property.. pretty soon it started to rain.. now, good people, fascia-ing, soffit-ing and gutter-ing are not conducive with wet weather.

for several reasons.. 1. rain makes your power tools unsafe.. 2. the ground on which you work gets muddy.

this mud then gets transposed from your shoes onto the rungs of the ladder.

JW's and interracial marriage?
by c.dawn in
1. social
2. relationships
my nephew a jw who is white is dating another jw who is black with the intent to announce their engagement soon.. i had been reading about the past history of the jw's opinion of the black race.

old writings that said they were gods people too, but not intelligent as white etc and not qualified intellectually to go door to door to teach etc.that all people would be white in the new system.. i had read of a rope being run down the pews of the fellowship halls to separate the races during services during the 50's early 60's at the halls that did allow intergrated services... this was supposed to have taken place even up to a few years after de-segregation in the schools and other public places took effect.. that in some areas they had their own hall to meet at and the whites had theirs.

at one point the members of the black hall had asked to meet at the white hall as their building was being repaired or soemthing and they were told no, that some of the members of the white hall wouldn't understand or approve.. and i read that even up into the late 90's, many black members still weren't being given postions or responsibilities that whites had held since the beginning of the jw's.. i was just wondering how far they've come along to improve this image and if anyone knows thier opinion of interracial marriages.

A womans tears
by Maverick in
1. social
2. relationships
this is really for the guys, but i know the woman here will have some great insights for us stupid men so i hope y-all will offer up your best.. when the woman i am with starts to tear up or cry i feel totally helpless and useless.

this is one of the most dreaded situations i as a man can ever find myself in.

my older brother, the retired police chief, would get angry if a woman started to cry when he was writing her a ticket, he felt it was an act.

how serious is depression related to your jw upbringing, association and/or disfellowshipment?

should this kind (or any other kind) of depression that lingers long after the wt smoke clears go untreated?

how have you successfully dealt with your depression?.
