  Brilliant work and patient effort thank you deeply for recording these videos, you might be interested to know I have current elder friends in Canada and the uk who love to know whats going on but cannot do so openly. I have directed them to this site. The GB has no idea that so many elders question privately only and with trusted friends their policies Thank you.

  Horley Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses UK (disbanded)

  does anyone in the uk know any details about the above congregation?

  it seems it was disbanded by the co specifically because of "lack of love" and members reassigned to other congregations in the reigate and crawley areas.. i've checked the charities commission web site and the charity was removed in may 2012.. http://apps.charitycommission.gov.uk/showcharity/registerofcharities/removedcharitymain.aspx?registeredcharitynumber=1066699&subsidiarynumber=0.

  the cobe was a guy called rossiter (sp?

  This is a common thing, many congregations have "left the love they had at first" I have been to a few halls in Canada in London Ontario, no one greeted me, elders and MS were all about paperwork, talk was from a discontinued outline, my family and I walked out disgusted and I served as an elder then!!!

  i was born into the jw's religion.

  was an active jw for over 30 years.

  i remember when i was a child my mom would take me in the bathroom and switch me so hard with the nice little switch she got from the tree outside.

  It happened too often, how many kids remember the harsh spankings? Was it really necessary? Was their sin so bad that they deserved physical punishment. At times past I have seen parents struggle with noisy children, but when I see their parents behaviour its them I wanna slap!!!

  Biblical Proof that JW Elders can not have Jehovah's or Jesus Spirit

  something just occured to me.. like a lightening bolt in fact.

  matthew 10:19 just popped into my head... new american standard bible 18 and you will even be brought before governors and kings for my sake, as a testimony to them and to the gentiles.

  19 "but when they hand you over, do not worry about how or what you are to say; for it will be given you in that hour what you are to say.

  I asked the person I studied with about persecution and he showed me that scripture. He said that god would put words in our mouth if we were afraid and unsure. Now we see elders who make excuses, destroy evidence, and essentially get tongue tied over straightforward questions. Why are the GB employers silent when the company men are under fire for doing what the GB told them? Even in a worldly setting a good company firm would have their men prepped for trial, and the best of defence given their employees were good men. This enquiry has opened my eyes even more. Why have the GB sat quietly in Brooklyn? Why don't they use the JW.org to broadcast their side of the story, 7 million witnesses would listen in.

  Why are none of the 'Governing Body' being summoned to any of the abuse commissions?

  by GodZoo in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i'm not sure if this has been covered but i'm wondering why none of the gb are being requested at or formally summoned to any of the australian abuse commissions or other investigations that are taking place around the world?

  they after all are the ones single handedly responsible for making and enforcing all the rules that are the sole cause of all these abuses and problems.. why are they just keeping their silent distance and leaving all the ill-equipped and sadly incompetent local elders exposed to take the full public blast, criticism and humiliation for all that is now being brought out in these investigations?

  how are they seemingly able to sit cosy in their ivory tower immune and unaccountable?.

  Australian child abuse enquiry.

  by notoneoftheboys in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  lies and more lies.

  a question was asked by the court on having someone in the room for moral support with a minor child or frightened girl when being questioned by the elders over allegations of child abuse.

  the elders book makes it clear no one else is allowed.

The elders book makes it clear no one else is allowed. Yet the elder being questioned said it was somewhere in the elders book that that in these types of cases they could have another person there for support? I read the elders book did not see this info, am i wrong??? If I am not wrong the shit will hit the fan.

  by sir82 in

  2. child-abuse

  (let me know if anyone thinks my assumptions are way out of line, or if i've forgotten anything).

  basic facts:.

  the australian royal commission has 1000+ documented cases of child abuse over 65 years.

  When something of this nature is revealed, rest assured it is only the tip of the iceberg. Many more will come forward now it is being made public. My assertion is this "Those elders who knew of paedophiles and hid it might say they were only following the GB direction" Is that not the same as the German Nazis who lamented when discovered "We followed orders"

  The Gb condemned swaggart, the bakers and all the other television evangelists in the early 80s and here they are doing the same.....do as we say not as we do.
