just a quickie, as far as the date - 1975 - is concerned, was there ever a printed document through the wts that stated that this year would be the absolute final date for the big a ?.
or was it just rumours amongst the brothers ?.
just interested (sorry if this has been mentioned 1000 times before, but i'm new here you see & all that).. .

Tar !
i found out today that there is a new insert in the kingdom ministry coming up which is all about how to treat disfellowshipped ones.
aparrently they are clamping down on it big time.
has anyone else heard of this or seen it?
It is interesting to review this subject. How far will some brothers go? Leaping out of a room quickly if one happens to be eating a bag of crisps, whilst (God forbid) a DF JW sits down with a sandwich in the same room? Hehe .... could make for some interesting and particularly wicked foolish playtime ;o)
the jws have been happily proseletyzing & lying about thier 'faith" for a while now, until someone alerted some other people.there are about 5 or 6 whitewashing the truth about their practices in order to gain converts & sumpathy.
look at this bully!
sensationalizing child molestation?
Direct him here respectfully and throw him to the dogs
Summon bears from the woods to tare him apart !
Thanks for the link :o)
Always on the sniff for good tunes :oP
cheers!
it's been eight years since i have spoken to any of my relatives.
some (cousins, nieces, nephews) were young children at the time; now some are 18 and older.
they are not allowed to speak to me, but of course those rules don't apply in the reverse.
I am in agreement here - maybe a letter from the heart and see what reaction (if any) you get and leave the ball firmly in their collective court. At least then they will know that you are thinking of them.
Hope it all goes well :o)

let's all help bill bowen with his great work by taking copies of the dateline and panorama to our local newspapers and enfazing children's safety.
this is a good time since there have been so many child abductions in the media.
no one wants pedophiles knocking in their door at their home.
The fact is, you are probably living in the same area as a practising paedophile anyway. It is not an easy problem to make go away and sending letters to the newspapers is unlikely to make a jot of difference. They jump on this juicy news, but rarely do you see positive action on the back of such sensationalism. What will it achieve? A JW gets the shit kicked out of him by the local thug, who can't reason beyond the headlines. Great!
Saying things like - we don't want paedophiles knocking on our doors - is a little bit over the top.
Remember to stay balanced. Not every JW is a paedophile or indeed holds with that disgusting behaviour.
would just like to say that i have spent hours reading material on this web site.
just would like to also say that i am still one of jehovah's witnesses.
if jehovah's witnesses are truly distructive and to familys as well then i would like to know please, how on earth is the association of brothers going to stay together, if it is really destructive?
The *Dark Sinister Arguments* sentence is amusing. I would say, personally, reasoning without constraint.
The spelling and grammar is dreadful throughout. I do have problems with spelling on occasion, it is wise to use a dictionary or spell checker.
Some members of this board do go over the top with their harsh remakes towards the WTS, but if you study threads and learn to ignore certain posters, you will find a glimmer of truth within. A truth that the society does not allow.

why don't we show our support and our outrage at the same time to the governing body for their actions towards bill bowan, barb, and all the silentlambs and see how many we can flood into the wtbs headquarters.
what do you think??

You forget the mentality you are wrestling with here. Remember -
WE WILL BE PERSECUTED FOR OUR FAITH - WHEN THE PERSECUTION HAPPENS - REJOICE
So then, you will only make the JW opening the mail and those who see the letters happy. Is it really worth the effort?
Bill is viewed as an apostate and somebody to be avoided and all friends of Bills will either be frowned on or avoided. He is a plague upon the society and will be viewed in this way.
this is a sign we should make up and hang on doors in our neighborhoods.. .
just a idea.

I get the point - but its a tad over the top.
I usually just say no thank-you myself. Or simply don't answer the door.
