Zalkin
He knows his shit and he knows the Watchtower's too.
Plus, he bypasses the local congregation goes directly after the Watchtower Society for not doing anything after they found out about the molestation and because the Watchtower Society owns the kingdom hall where the perpetrator attends or attended.

New JW Podcast Show - Amazing Interview with Irwin Zalkin!
by God_Delusion inhello guys & gals!.
we've just launched our brand new episode, s01e01 - irwin zalkin, which we recorded last night.. you can listen to it right here - http://www.jwpodcast.org/2014/11/03/s01e01-irwin-zalkin.
in this ground-breaking bumper show, we interview irwin zalkin, the lawyer who filed and won this new child abuse case against the watchtower organisation, which saw the victim, jose lopez awarded $13.5 million.. i think you'll agree with me (after listening to the interview) that irwin really knows his 'watchtower' stuff!.

P.S. I hope you do podcasts on:
607 B.C.
UN/Watchtower NGO affiliation
Pedophile cases against God's organization of 'spiritual cleaness and purity. so folks can see what can happen when religious leaders gain too much trust.

by cognac ini've read conflicting things so was hoping to get this clarified.. .

It depends on how much of a threat to the congregation you are perceived to be.
Telling just one JW what you really think and have found out can get you invited to a kangaroo court and subsequent shunning by most of your family and friends.
Keep in mind that your friends and family are involved with an oppressive, high control group which cares nothing about indivual's feelings or constitutional rights.

Since The Bible Sponsors Disciplining Your Children Do JWs Say It Is OK Spank A Child?
by minimus inis it ok to spank your kids?
is it ok to discipline them using any force?.

Some JW's have been observed beating their child within an inch of his/her life for a minor infraction.
Other JW's (especially those with an elder in the immediate family) take a milder approach to discipline.

Romans 14:23
by StarTrekAngel ini bumped into this text (romans 14:23) during one of the meetings.
yes, most times i find myself drifting away from the meeting into some real bible studying.
do i understand this correctly or is it saying that even good things should be done by faith or else is a sin?

It says that everything that is not from faith is sin.

new assembly experience... what do you reckon to this one?
by purrpurr inok so aparently there was this young girl who wanted to study with the jw's because she loved the bible so much.
she asked her fathers permission but he refused, after much nagging though he said she could have a study if she was prepared to have one of her fingers chopped off.
he thought the is would stop her but she was willing so he got a knife and cut off one of her fingers... a little while later she wanted to attend the meetings and he said no and again when nagged said she could attend meetings if she had another finger chopped off so she agreed and he chopped off a second finger.

What Is The Fate Of Adam and Eve? And Will John the Baptist See Heaven?
by Cold Steel inat one point, didn't the society teach that adam and eve either would not be resurrected or, if so, they would not attain the kingdom of heaven?
i remember that a number of years ago, a jw told me that john the baptist also would not obtain eternal life in the kingdom of heaven.
their evidence was matthew 11:11, where jesus says, "verily i say unto you, among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than john the baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.".

Read Ephesians 4:1-16.
It totally destroys the Watchtower's doctrine of two classes of people, one to heaven and one in a nonexistent and unbiblical 'paradise earth' which false teachers arrived at by interpolating Isaiah 65:17-25 in order to support their belief that they were more favored by God and are above others in His eyes.

I have never been contacted with encoragement to return to the Watchtower's despicable, nasty vomit by any Jehovah's Witness since I left the evil, wicked, demon infested cult.
And that's the way I like it.
