just called their media line:.
http://www.jw-media.org/contact.htm.
asked a young man named bryce where is the official press release on the cano pedophile situation.
Thank you LDH for your amazing accomplishment!! JR Brown's comments just go to show what BS this summer's ASSembly is when he admits and we all know, that the WTS has absolutely no direction from God- sooooooo....How do they know the "END" is near, who told them? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA this is GREAT!!! ALSO, THERE IS NO DAMN END! except maybe for the WTS! Hopefully!
IC (of the faithfully waiting for the END of the WTS- Class)
thought id share these items on another sidebar on this forum some may still not be aware of including the scandal in
alleged pedophile jw minister caught in ny
he may have been molesting kids interstate in also, as well as in the carribean to which the watchtower society over jws had been sending him courtesy of membership donated moneys.
Spiritual Paradise my **s, these people are far worse than your average hoodlum. This is a true tragedy, and it has to end NOW! I really hope that these latest incidents blow it all out in the open, once the general public is outraged they will be forced to change this stupidity.

IC
it's the top news at http://wcbstv.com/topstories/local_story_178173758.html .
see "boy in minister sex scandal speaks to cbs.
investigators compiling mountain of evidence against suspect.
THIS IS GREAT! A perfect opportunity for the justice system to start investigating the JW child abuse guidelines, and when they do, I hope they publicize it to the MAX, so everyone can see that the "Spiritual Paradise" BS is just that! I wonder how many JW kids he abused accross south america, where if you come from the US and especially Bethel you are considered like a saint. I'm from NY originally and I remember how many parents looked up to Bethelites, and would send their boys out on service and studies with these guys hoping that this would help their kids spiritually, and inspire them to become Bethelites themselves. Now that I look back, I wonder how many young boys were messed up, by these guys.
I'm so glad my boys are out of that mess!

i just happened to google jehovah witnesses in french "temoins de jehovah" and found this interesting article.
les temoins de jehovah sollicitent la population annonceur vedette clinique dentaire francois les temoins de jehovah sollicitent la population les temoins de jehovah organisent une campagne sans precedent a victoriaville et les environs afin dinviter la population a leur congres annuel sous le theme : la delivrance est proche!
THIS IS GREAT!! I really hope alot of non JW people go to these CRAP ASSemblies and see what a load of BS it is, and when they start talking against the kids getting higher education, these people will surely walk out....wondering why the hell they bothered to go to this CULT meet. This will indeed help people see what this religion is about, and they will hopefully never open their doors to another JW.
Although I really think this whole campaign thing is geared toward the R&F witnesses, to keep them busy, I doubt any non witnesses will make an effort to go to this stupidity.
IC
i care about all of you.
i love some of you and have told you that, some i love and haven't told (yet).
for some of us, those here truly are family and friends.
You guys are all AMAZING, I love you all! You have helped me in my journey to find who I truely am, outside of the WTS cult, your informative posts have taught me so much, your wacky ones have brought a smile to my face many times, our outrage at the WTS neverending stupidity is always entertaining and they keep it coming. THANK YOU SIMON for making this possible for all of us! We are all an amazing bunch, there are people here who are Christians, Atheists, Catholics, Wiccans, Deists and other's I can't think about now, yet although we don't always agree, in the end we share a common bond and come together anyway!
I don't always post, but you better believe that my morning coffee is accompanied by reading on this board and seeing what you guys are up to. Love and Light to ALL!!!
IC
yep that's right folks, yours truely has actually been attending the sunday meeting.
many will ask, why in the hell would you ever do that?
well, developments going on in my world have led me to this decision.
Drew, I salute you, I wish I had the guts to answer in those damn meetings and try to enlighten someone. Although I'm no longer a Christian, what you said IS what the bible say's, that it's only through Jesus we are saved, if they are going to use the bible they should not twist it around to support their stooopid dogma.

"police in middletown are accusing 50-year-old minister jesus cano, a jehovah's witness, of trying to lure young boys for sex with nude pictures of himself, which he'd printed with his phone number.
i believe he is/was a bethelite at the wt farms.
saw it on my local evening news.. http://wcbstv.com/topstories/local_story_177180721.html.
FINALLY! One they can't spin! I bet those old boys in brooklyn are going through those Depends like nobody's business right about now!
IC
heard from a sister that a visitor to their cong (from usa) mentioned in passing that at the top at brooklyn they did not think that the reported number of anointed still alive was accurate, rather they believe that only a couple of hundred remain.
they apparently believe this points to the end soon (again) - also if it is true they are not proclaiming it (obviously because the time limit it imposes will be exposed as another failed date).
odd if that is the case as they keep on finding gb members who are not actually very old
There are no annointed, the whole doctrine is BS!
IC
after alot of time, lurking, fighting this damn inward battle i am dealing with, i've decided to join in the mix.
a little about me (i'll try not to bore you to much) ... i am a fader.
was raised jw, was even a m.s.
Welcome In Between , Thank you for sharing your story, I can truely relate. My family and I are Faders, we go once in a while just to keep up appearances, since my Mom (regular pioneer) is still in, and other family members also. It was shocking at first to say the least, when I found out about all the lies and misinformation the Society throws at the members, I went through the feeling totally lost phase, like the rug was pulled from under me, to the incredible anger phase when you realize the harm they have caused to so many unsuspecting people, and how they have influenced so many decisions you've made in your life, to the just letting go phase when although you are still angry at them at times you see them as insignificant and unable to affect your life.
Now and for quite awhile I am in the enlightenment phase, and it's like waking up and seeing the Sun for the first time, when you are free to question and find answers and have achieved that inner peace and joy, that was so hard to find unless, so we were told by the society on numerous times, your were doing the JW shuffle-you know-5 meetings a week, 10 hours a month, studying for all meetings, and those that achieved these unrealistic goals would find that they had no peace and joy, but were exhausted and neglecting other important things. Today I see so many things differently, I believe in God the Creator, but I no longer choose to call him Jehovah (iv'e researched where that name came from), I don't believe in the bible as God's inerrant word (iv'e researched that also), I would say that I believe God's word to us is his creation around us, and our wonderful bodies. If we show Love to others and ourselves we don't need commandments telling us how to behave because our behaviour would be such that would no harm others or ourselves, that's what I strive for. Anyway, I've rambled long enough, Take care, and read, read, read as there is incredible information on this site, there are many wonderful minds that gather here, you will be empowered and enlightened.
