  Running a JW website without getting sued

  hi guys, i want to setup a unique ex-jw/cult site, and i am wondering how you run this site without getting sued?

  last thing i want is to have the stress of a court case that the jw volunteer-lawyers likely will win.

  i'd like to keep a rather low profile.

  I think the site that was shutdown provided access to a lot of current information that was still protected by copywrite.

  Did you make stuff up without realizing it when you were in the 'truth'(TM)?

  recently, since my d/aing, i've heard the same old cobblers has been said to and by my family members.

  (more than likely referring to me).. ''jehovah(tm) will judge.

  he knows who will survive and be destroyed at armageddon.

  I used to give the old "i don't judge or read hearts Jehovah does" as an answer when people would ask if i felt only JW in good standing would live thru the big A.

  Have heard that one from the husband (elder) of the woman who is studying (gag) with my wife.

  And I guess next week my wife will find out why she should not have married me. She should have chosen someone 'In the truth' or stayed single.....

  Thanks so much for the review Blondie......I guess the lesson is spend all of your time in JW activity and with JWs and you will be fine. Wife went yesterday, will be interesting to see how much she gained from this 'spiritual food'.

  it appears that only men in dress pants and women in skirts will survive.

  So therefore I guess no more wearing of slacks for women or jeans and shorts for anyone, for no one knows when the end will be and one would not want to be dressed improperly to be able to make it through the big A.

  just in the short time I have been reading about the WTS there has been the generation change, the changing of the date of the sealing of the anointed, meeting changes (elimination of the book study), changing the pioneer hour requirements amongst many things. They have survived child abuse scandals, including newspaper articles and tv news casts, and no issue by the people who follow them.

  It seems to me no matter what happens, the followers blindly follow...

  Do you think the Governing Body will make a major mistake that will open the eyes of most JW’s?

  As long as the WTS keeps the folks all but worshipping the GB, which seems to be more and more the case with the current teachings, the followers are equating the GB with Jehovah God himself, so a mistake may be made that would send a good number packing, but I think the mistake would have to be HUGE.....
