  I think this was well done. It does a very good job at pointing out the control of the org, the failed prophecies, the ridiculous, exclusive hope...with pictures from the literature. The guy was a violent nutter...who just happened to be a JW.

  Whether JW's get it or not, the exposure of this high control religion with its wacky and deadly doctrines, cruel shunning and abuse policies to the non JW world is what is important.

  I'm saving this on the DVR.

  hi guys, i don't really post on here much anymore, having been on here since 2001. this site helped me out in the early days and has been a great support system for all of my past jw issues.

  like many others i was discouraged from an education so that i could window clean and pioneer in my youth during the 80's.

  having spent many years post my jw exit in alcoholism and periods of drugs, i decided to clean myself up 7 years ago by attending aa, i was still a window cleaner ... at the time i wrote extensively on here about my issues.

  awaken, I have friends that knew the Jarka's very well, and have been in touch with her family continuously since her death. They say Kelle was a tool, and the wife was naive, but sweet.

  We had a similar situation locally with a mega church. It was a looong battle.

  Is God evil, just because he fails to prevent suffering?

  a poster on another thread made the following comment, that really made me think.. it is about god: .

  "imo i would say [god is] not evil but just indifferent.

  apathy allows it.

  It okay defender. Actually, I would wager my thinking is more expanded than yours...perhaps.

  I originally had thoughts on the word you choose...evil, but I was at work and didn't have time to put my thoughts together.

  My feeling is if god's ultimate reward/destination for man is no suffering...then allowing suffering is cruel and without love. I'm talking Job and disaster/plague cruel type suffering.

  The natural feeling for a loving, feeling person is to protect and care for one another. You may feel god does that. Others may disagree.

  In the end it really doesn't matter. If your faith serves you well, than good. It doesn't mean what you have faith in is true. I've been there, and I have the tee shirt. But it doesn't make it true and real.

  BackseatDevil, I agree with everything you said. That, stated better than I, is my speculation. We probably will never know the "why" from him. But I understand "how" this could very well be true. Well said.
