  Data Protection Act 1998

  by S EIGHT in

  2. scandals

  has anyone in the uk sent a "subject access request" under the data protection act 1998 to the bethel or the local congregation?.

  i'm very tempted to as this will mean they have to provide any personal information they hold.. i was disfellowshipped, reinstated, appointed and stepped down.

  i'd like to know what information is held on record in regard to these incidents.. s8..

  "It'll pretty much put religious orders out of business,"
  Miller said. "It would certainly impact whether we
  would ever want to continue operations" in NY.

  Isn't it always about "Business". Money, money and more money.

  I feel your pain NewBoy.

  If your x-friend asked your x-wife for a date at a funeral, I guess there had to be something going on behind the scenes for a time then. Sick bastards. If and when my daughters get married it should prove real interesting, cause you see I don't take much shit from anyone or anybody and don't play games.

  Best to you and the kids. The Claw.

  Hi Drew,

  I feel your pain. The elders in my congo were afraid to come over my house and see the research that I had acquired on the Mexico/Malawi scandal. I think they knew they would look like fools when I finished with them. My PO even said he would come over with the CO and see me. NEVER showed. 2 elders after almost a year and a half finally cornered me at a local gas station in town. That was a big mistake on their part. I gave both of them a piece of my mind. They have no guts. Anyway, I wish you and the wife the best in whatever you do. I don't post much anymore but when I read this I had to say something. I have always enjoyed and will continue to enjoy your posts.

  Take care, The Claw

  Promoting teachings that conflict with the Bible also qualifies.

  It should read: (Promoting teachings that conflict with the WTS also qualifies).

  The Watchtower justification for now allowing CIVILIAN SERVICE.

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  after tens of thousands of young witness men in the prime of their lives have spent years in jails for refusing civilian service in 1996 the watchtower decided such a choice was not unchristian and a matter of choice.

  watchtower 1996 may 1 p.20.

  what, though, if the state requires a christian for a period of time to perform civilian service that is a part of national service under a civilian administration?

  Ask the guy who spent 10+ years in prison for a crime he didn't commit and then was let go due to new evidence? At least the system has the courtesy to say that they had the wrong guy and let him go.

  Sounds like the same friction Ray Franz had with the GB of his day. Nothing changes I guess. I just wish I could live long enough to see the Tower fall.

  Evaluating Raymond Franz

  by greendawn in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what do you think of ray(mond) franz?

  i have seen here some people critisise him as not being a really heartfelt opponent of the wts, but my view is that he was quite honest about his expressed motives against the cult.

  with his revelations he gave a lot of momentum to the ex jw movement (the apostate organisation according to the jws) and offered valuable assistance to those seeking to shake off the ideological and social dependance on the oppressive cult.

  I owe my freedom and sanity to Ray. He is imho a great man. It was his books that made me finally see the light of the WTS. I could never thank him enough.

  My wife's making meatloaf hamburgers to go on the George Forman Grill. A side of potatoes and some greens. Of course a little drink to help it along.
