  two witness rule

  by luffy in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  what exactly is the two witness rule regarding the witnesses stance on child abuse?..am i right in thinking that this means that unless there are two witnesses to the child abuse, witnesses are forbidden to go to the police..surely this cannot be so twisted.

  does anyone know the words used by the jws at baptism?..i know that matt:28 tells us of being baptised in the name of the father the son and the holy ghost, and have heard that jws actually pledge "allegiance" to the watchtower at baptism which i find crazy..is this true?.

  hi..am here asking for help again...theres been a change since i last posted...I explained to him that even if i were to convert to jw that due to the fact that Im divorced, that we shouldnt marry. He said he was under the impression that once you converted to witness, anything you had done before was not held against you and therefore as I had divorced as a non witness, would be able to marry..I told him there is always a way round these things but he says hes going to talk to people today and find out exactly how this works..he also said he has to research and look into it..as he pointed out, it has opened up many questions about jus how the jws work and interpret things. We are going to talk about it tonight after he has asked the elders etc and was wondering if someone could plzzz give me the best way to go around discussing this with him...ie..making him see how hypocritical and silly it all is without appearing disrespectful.
