jehovah witnesses destroy many otherwise happy families by their cruel and inhumane shunning.. the bryant families(ca.& or) are a very real example of how shunning as enforced by elders and the watchtower really messes up what could otherwise be happy families.. will those fat heads on the governing body ever stop and think about how their sad and tragic misuse of shunning has led to untold suffering for so so many people,.. people who they owe,... no, people who they should feel love and compassion for because they have trusted them with their lives.. there is all kinds of wickedness in this world and i think the governing body is right up there close the the most wicked by their use of manipulation though lies and guilt.
one day i'm sure they will be held accountable.. oh god please bring their own wickedness crashing back on their own heads, because they keep tearing your people to pieces with their lies and the shunning of innocent people, please bring their own form of wickedness crashing back on their own heads.. .
join the watchtower or you will die.. only jehovah's witnesses have the truth all other religions evil and from the devil.. you must beleive the watchtower or you're going to die a painful death forever, isn't that really good news?.

father, please... forgive me.... dearest jw.com posters... may you all have peace!.
i wish to share something with you that i had no idea of until just a few minutes ago.
after listening to my lord direct me to go back and read and read and read, i must say, dear ones, that i knew robert and janet (jannie) bryant from shingle springs, ca, personally.
Perry---in case what Shelby said sounds outrageous, you can believe partakers in the Watchtower can be persecuted. I've seen it myself in person.
The Watchtower has been bragging for a long time that the numbers of the anointed are diminishing---but for sure the numbers of partakers stayed virtually unchanged and last year jumped a few and I expect this coming Memorial will increase even more.
The Watchtower is panicking---we have had several talks IN A ROW about "not partaking--not partaking-not partaking". "Jehovah is only taking on new ones for replacements right now, that would be very few--very few--" (not the estimated 50+ new partakers every year) "and that would be only be from among those that have served Jehovah faithfully for many many years."
Not one scripture to back up these claims mind you. And more and more, we are hearing of Witnesses partaking in a private ceremony at home, and not reporting it. A think a lot of anointed are 'coming out of the closet' in the Watchtower organization. They were as of a few years ago. It seems to be picking up steam, and of course the only means the Watchtower knows to handle any crises is force-force-and more force.
Ho hum, another day among the UNIFIED Jehovah's Witnesses
in my early years of questioning wts theology and methodology in the late 70s', i was entirely on my own.
i knew that something was seriously wrong with their doctrines, but there was no internet, no discussion groups, and in my particular area of the uk, no listening ear.
in fact everybody seemed so pleasantly in love with the truth and so drawn along by collective enthusiasm that i seriously began to question my own attitudes.. sometimes i would wonder if i had gone quite mad, lost god's spirit, or had accomplished some dark deed in my past, that unknown to me was stripping me of my faith.
I guess it's six of one and half a dozen of the other. The 'history whitewash' thank God less and less of it is possible) to GET THEM in...
And pressure to KEEP THEM IN.
But even the peer pressure can't go on forever as there are more and more places for a JW in terrible trouble to go. I hope we keep woking on that.
Hugs to everyone who posted on this thread.

Good advice about contacting the authorities. You could always write an anonymous letter or make a phone call. Just in case 'someone' wants you to.
I'm sorry you're feeling so badly. I hope you feel better soon.
my husband accused me of apostasy today!
when he came home from work i was talking to a friend on the telephone and he asked me what was i talking about.
i know that he thought that i was talking about the things that i learned about the misleading prophecies that the wt had printed.
Dakota is right. There is no respect or appreciation or anything good portryed in a dialogue like that. I'm very sorry to hear this. I hope things get better in the relationship--JW or no.
i cannot believe i didn't post the phone number of the church that is hosting the memorial service.
when i tried to edit, i couldn't.. so here it is:.
telephone: (503)-434-5541 (bethel baptist chrurch, mcminnville, or).

The service begins at 3:30 and is expected to last about an hour.
Those who woould like to can call in well-wishes; Reba will be by the phone the whole time I think.
Hug your children extra tonight.

Absolutely, Jeff. That's a big factor, in my opinion, in many suicides---they are looking back on all the years they have lost, all the opportunities that went by them--and it's all they can see.
In reality, they have an opportunity to be really free and their life could just be beginning.
So SAD...
THE WAR ON THE WATCHTOWER IS JUST BEGINNING...
fore the first time i seen that jw admit one very important thing about why they are forced to pay taxes, and why some countrys dont want to give them a position as a religion inn good standard, if you understand what i mean.. on side 15 you can read that new issus are on the tabel, as bloodissu, who to rase your children and the dfd issu.. very intresting to see this, as i say the first time gov body say this, before they have only say it is evel talk and apostats lie.
Farkel, if you check with Amnesty International, you will find this huge long list of HUNDREDS and HUNDREDS of JW men rotting away in prisons in lands where there IS alternative service. Specifically, Bulgaria and Greece, but I know the number is way larger than that.
The last time I looked, ONE JW in Greece and ONE JW in Bulgaria asked for alternative service. Would you like to hazard a guess as to what THEIR standing in the congregation may be at this point?
I lost track of this issue a while back, and I am hoping someone will pick it up and run with it. Myself, I am preparing to relocate (Jehovah's Witness Relocation Program) and can't keep up with these issues untill probably next year.
Addition: In Bulgaria and in Greece, the JW's were whining that the Alternative service was twice as long as the prison sentence. Yes---BECAUE THEY CUT THE PRISON SENTENCES IN HALF ---DUUUUUHHHHHH !!!!!!!!
I'm not saying they don't have a legitimate gripe---but they weren't telling the WHOLE STORY---what a surprise (NOT).

i keep coming across posts of people who appear to be sympathetic to the jws.
instead of calmly explaining their position, they start spewing obscenities or cursing or harass people they disagree with.. if these people were "christian" or a "loyal jw" they would not do these things.
this leaves me confused.
yeah, non-JW's are as good as dead already and 'birdfood' according to recent Watchtower articles. Why take the time to be polite?
