The public prosecuter is interested in getting information on JWs.
by Driving Force inbackground information.
i myself am in full fade mode with an overly active jw wife, who refuses to discuss any point whatsoever.
a friend who is not a jw nor has ever been a jw; he studied for a few months, then realized what an evil cult it is and stopped.

I'm pretty sure the MS wasn't reported to the police either, even though the girl's father was an unbeliever and probably wanted a piece of the MS. Both the servant and the underage girl were reproved. That's all. -

I just signed it. I put in the comments that I personally knew of a (married ministerial servant) raping an underage 15 year old sister. I was groomed by an elderly brother myself, until my father finally got a clue and nipped it in the bud. I was also touched inappropriately by an elder at a pool party.
I'm excited to see this take off! I used my name, too, because I'm so angry about what happened in our Hall. Sure, it was years ago, but it's only gotten worse. Enough already!

No 'Tight Pants' policy is now official - classed as 'disturbing'
by wizzstick inin short:- tight pants is no longer just a am3 hang up (or is that a hang up on the well hung?
)- brothers who have effeminate body language are flagged up- as are sisters with 'masculine' hair styles or dress- such dress is 'disturbing to the congregation'- the above must heed the (repeated) counsel from the elders...or they get stripped of the right to share on the ministry- however...this will not be revealed (announced) to the congregation.
wow.

Truer words were never spoken! They'd give Jesus the "stink eye" if he walked into a Kingdumb Hell. -

My thoughts on the last WT study. Keep in Expectation
by StarTrekAngel inso i sat thru another brain mushing session for the sake of family.
it is no myth by now that the more time you spend awake the harder it is the accept that people just take all of this in without asking.
a computer has more reasoning abilities than your average jw at this point.

Doesn't Revelations say Jesus will come in a cloud, and every eye will see him? Of course he wants everyone to be saved! Guess they forgot that one in their quest to be special. -

The Witnesses Are Really Trying Hard To Get Me Back In
by minimus inat my mom's bed side all i see is either jw family or friends making a concerted effort to have me return to their fold.
evidentlyy, my mom has encouraged this and i'm a trapped prisoner, as they do their best to have me come back.
it's bad enough that i have to endure my mom's dying, now i have to be bombarded with this bs..

JW's are clueless clods. When my father was on his last days in hospice, they would swarm into his room and flock around his bed. They even tugged on his arms when he was using the bed pan, giving him no dignity. " Oh, Brother W, we love you so much." I became furious and instructed the nurse's station to post a no visitors sign. I said I didn't care if anyone claimed they were his brother or sister; I was his only child and I was taking charge to protect my father in his final days, from being pestered to death. Then, elder S. M. demanded to speak to me in the hallway. He stared me down, not in a Christian manner, but very hostile. Thankfully my husband came and ran him off. It's a hard, gut wrenching spot to be in, and they don't want to give you space to spend with your loved one in peace and quiet. My heart goes out to you, losing your mother, and having to deal with them too. Please take care of yourself. -

WT Society SEC Records : Hedge Funds, Cayman Islands, Financial Losses - Links
by flipper inso my wife and i were curious so i researched some financial links and found records indicating that the wt society has been operating at a loss since the year 2012. as you read the links it shows a loss of 10 million $$$ in 2012, about 16 million $$$ in 2013, and a whopping loss of 56 million $$$ in 2014 - where the expenditures exceeded the revenues for each of those years in the amount i've mentioned.
also there is a link on this same website with the sec records indicating that the wt society and it's representatives funneled 40 million $$$$ into hedge funds in the cayman islands as early as 2007. if you look online on other sites you can see evidence that indicates the wt society attended hedge fund conferences to look into more shadiness in 2011 and isn't it curious that by 2012 the wt society started showing losses.
anyway here is the link : https://www.watchtowerlies.com/the_watchtower_revenue.html .. feel free to check this link out and other links on that link indicating the cayman island connection.

My head is spinning, trying to analyse this. Great work, flipper! Are they really losing money, or hiding what they really have, to appear they're struggling so they can claim they can't pay any more victims?
Ha, John Aquila, they're spirit guided, by Jim Beam, don't you know.
Hopefully someone with a good financial base can interpret this for us! I'm a retired postal supervisor and this reminds me of the USPS, constantly claiming a loss for the fiscal year, but in reality hiding the profits they made.

Remember when you could wear casual clothes to the congregation book study?
by RULES & REGULATIONS ini would get home from work,eat dinner,shower and put on jeans,a shirt and gym shoes to the book study.
then,one day a letter was read where men would need to wear a suit and tie and the woman would have to wear dresses.
it was stated in a letter that the change was due to, '' giving a better witness to anyone who would watch us walking into our local congregation or a neighbor's house.''.

They are so hung up on thinking what people wear impresses God. If that were the case, why were we born naked? Anyway, I imagine the public watching these loonies all dressed up probably just thinks, OMG, if I joined this religion, look what they'd expect ME to do too, no thanks. -

Wait, if the fields are still " white for harvesting," how are they doing the final march around Jericho? Is it the last final push before the doors close, or are there still many to be preached to? The contradictions and double talk is astounding. Doesn't anybody up there in the Tower proof read, to make sure they don't keep making whoopsies every time they open their mouth? -

Template to dump Special Pioneers
by avaddohn94 in"downsizing" has reached special pioneers.. this is the template mexico is using to get rid of many of its special pioneers.
see how cold and unloving is the language they use.
a translation attempt is as follows:.

"We don't want to pay you any more, but looky here, you can keep pioneering for free now, what rich blessings!"
I wonder how many families who were undecided about sending their kids to college, will say aw, screw it! May as well, there's no future in a Pioneer/ Bethel career!

by stuckinarut2 inso this weeks service meeting is so full of "crazy".
a whole 15 min part devoted to trying to indoctrinate everyone on how to "explain our beliefs on 1914".

Uhhhm, aww, thanks buddy! That indeed made me queasy. All those Moonie like fake smiles. They look spacy and delusional, not to mention my pet peeve, all those silly dresses & suits. Very off putting.
