i see that a number of jw defenders feel that ex-jws are 'picking' on the watch tower society, and still do not get the clue.
these defenders seem to think that we are silent about other religions, and that we are just embellishing this issue because we have an ulterior motive to engage in a hate campaign.. let's look at a little history.
the watch tower religion has through its history, especially from j. f. rutherford's time, engaged in the most horrid bashing of all religions, especially the catholic church and protestant denominations.

Let's call a spade a spade here.
It's a CULT, clear and simple! All cults should be exposed for what they trully are!"
I would respond that ALL religions are CULTS. Anytime something works based on fear then it fits a common definition of the word CULT. Witnesses use fear of Armageddon as a tool, Catholics and others use fear of Hellfire as a tool.
please tell me i made the right decision.
last night the co and another elder showed up at our house just 5 minutes after my husband got home from work (i think they were sitting on the side of the road just waiting for him to come home)*stalkers*, anyway to make along story short, the pressure was on.
i felt like they were there to get us to da ourselves.
PS for the record I am not in any way affiliated with the legal industry.

Sarah,
Once again I feel like an lawyer-lover (NOT TRUE). But what are your legal rights in this regard? Do you know them? Are you legally prevented from publishing the names and addreses of the CO and the other scrotum-sucking scumbag? Do you know the exact procedure for DA'in yourself? Was this followed or can you appeal saying it was said by your husband in the heat of the moment because he saw them upset you?
If you can meet with them again....then you can record the meeting....whatever you do you have to figure out a way to do that and then find a way whereby they violate their own to-the-letter policy of DFing you.
If someone DA's themselves surely they have a right to retract it especially if it is within one or 2 days. SEE AN ATTORNEY ON MONDAY!! DO NOT THINK TWICE ABOUT IT.
Then get another meeting with them and record it and give the evidence to your attorney. If he can find any violation you have a case for making them accept you back!!
in my opinion it should be and a pedophile should never be allowed back into the organization.. the children they abuse suffer for the rest of their lives so why should a pedophile have forgiveness and be reinstated?
Amazing,
I do not have it in me to be as compassionate as you appear to be.
Amazing - you appear to be "amazing". Is it possible to ever find a way of speaking to you by phone? my email address is [email protected]
Thanks

i started out in business with a brother who passed away almost a year ago.

hey i need help.
i am stuck trying to explain when the 144 thousand without any refference material.
i am stuck in a remote lacal debating a couple of things and this topice came up.
Aguest,
How much do you pay for the weed?
And no I am not jealous beause the voices only speak to you!!
i came across the above book while i was browsing in a bookstore.
since i was on my lunch hour, i could not read it fully, but did quickly look over the information.
it spent a great deal of time discussing matters pertaining to russell.
Troubled - have you checked web sites like freeminds (see the link at the bottom of this page)?
she is studying with one of jws.
she has a study with her teacher, and then she comes here and talks about it.
she learns that the wts teaches one thing to new ones, but something else entirely to those who are already baptized.
lmao @ Jeff that is the funniest post I read all day
sl (bill),.
as someone with one toe still dangling in the truth i have a question for you.... if you had not gone through the pedophile experience and started your crusade....how would you have felt with regard to boards such as this one?
obviously most other jw's believe this place is overrun by disgruntled apostates and would want nothing to do with anyone here.. i am just intrigued to know what you would have felt about this place prior to your experience (also about freeminds and ray franz).
SL - thanks and good luck with your efforts - I admire your courage.
One final ? though - have you considered that you might be taken lightly by the JWs because you are perceived as currently associating with apostates and als the fact that apostates are perceived as your
your most ardent supporters?
May you have peace!!
