History has shown that powerful men and organizations fall all the time. They rot from within.
Bill has consistently proclaimed that watchtower policy protects pedophiles and hurts children.
Perhaps this will be the watchtowers "Achilles Heel".
Here's hoping.

all this talk about privileges being taken away, such as microphone duty, got me to thinking about how some brothers are viewed who aren't reaching out.. my husband would have fallen in this category.
i got involved with the jws first and looking back i think he just followed along to keep peace in our marriage.
he (gladly) followed me out too.. when we were jws, it wasn't a priority to him to become a ms or elder.
AMEN Cygnus!

In my old congregation we had mostly old, codgidy elders who seemed, no DID, relish in hindering most brothers who tried to "reach out" for greater kingdumb privileges.
Your BEST was NEVER enough.
HOWEVER, if you were the elders' son, you somehow made it to MS. ( Of course, that is taken away once the MS is caught "messing around" on his brand new wife. )
But as in any high control group or pirymid scam one is mostly rewarded for their loyal service. I guess I did'nt PUCKER UP enough for the cult of the jehovah's witnesses.
GOOD.

one of my best friends, an ex-elder, swears alot.
years ago i never would have sworn.
but they say bad assocaiation spoils useful habits, so what the -----.
Uhh...., Yea, a little.
My favorite is RAT-BAST$#D. As in, "Those rat-bast$#ds on the governing body!!!"
Hmm..., feel a little better.

cnn.com was reporting about many arrest in washington d.c. concerning imf protesters.
somtimes i notice that if there are similar events news agencies will try to cover them in the same segment.
here's hoping the major news casters will do a washington/imf protester, silentlambs/n.y.
Hello All,

Somtimes I notice that if there are similar events news agencies will try to cover them in the same segment.
Here's hoping the major news casters will do a Washington/IMF protester, SilentLambs/N.Y. sort of thing. Or SOMTHING that will get some national exposure.
God willing.

the local needs part dealt with this need.
too many are saying we don't want to confide in the elders and let them shepherd us.
perhaps, if the elders realized that they are nothing but a pain in the butt, they would just leave everybody alone!
AAHHHH!!!
But if you don't trust in the elders' "guidence" then your NOT trusting that the elders are "lead" by Gods' Spirit.
And if you don't trust that they are lead by Gods' Spirit then you don't have faith in the governing bodys' appointment by Jesus Christ.
And if you don't have faith in the governing bodys' appointment by Jesus Christ then YOU MUST BE AN APOSTATE!!! and sooo OUT YOU GO !!!
You BETTER trust the elders, or you know what's gonna happen to you!!!
The orgs a BIG TIME cult. I hope it will be exposed for all that it is.

dungbeetle and brymichmom delivered a stuffed lamb to the downey, ca kingdom hall at 12116 woodruff avenue today.
present were a reporter and a photographer from the downey patriot newspaper.
while we were placing the lamb at the front door, an elder approached us and asked us why we were there.
My wife's been to that hall. Probably knows the elder who lost his cool there.
He he. Wish I could have seen the exchange.
This just goes to show you how insulated dubs are in this country. If this elder could not "hang" under a little scrutiny, imagine if a whole bunch of reporters or protesters showed up at the halls front door. He'd freak!
The gb teaches their followers to be like that tho.
Monkey see, monkey do.

greetings from the uk!
we were invited to a conference to speak on sl issues and had a very productive weekend.
it appears many here are very aware of the abuse issue and want to get involved.
Good idea JC,
Call the God-less cowards out with bullhorns. Throw their dirty little secrets right in their faces. Lets see what happens. Betcha their gonna run. Just like the cowards they are.
