Dubs badmouthing children
by rebel8 ini was remembering the 1980s when it was in vogue to shun children.
they went through a fad when they'd call unbaptized excommunication as "disassociation".
within a short period of time, most of the teens and preteens were "disassociated" or disfellowshipped.

I was in during the 80's, and being disassociated was the same as being df'd except it was for unbaptized people.

My wife's JW brother/wife and cousin/husband are coming for a visit....
by NVR2L8 init's been 2 years since my last meeting and i have been avoiding all contacts with jws to stay under the radar.
i've had my brother, sister and mom visit from back home 300 miles away and except for my mom i told the others why i stopped believing in the wt's teachings.
they told me that i should do what makes me happy and that nothing would change between us...we will see.

But having them hanging around for a week? Unless they were the fun type to want to blow off the meetings and do lots of fun stuff, I'd have to come up
with a reschedule of my vacation to stay busy and away from them.
My thoughts exactly!
And if they're diehard dubs, couldn't they stay home and aux. pioneer instead?
Oh GAWD, maybe they're planning on doing that while at NVR2L8T's house.

Hello again, sorry it's been so long!

i would like to thank those who i came into contact with and let me into their lives and hearts.
if anyone worried about me during my absence at all then i apologize; i have not regressed or been kidnapped/re-brainwashed by the borg.

Welcome back! The more you know about this cult, the more you'll heal. Isn't that weird?

A jw man was the reason I started to study, but by the time I was baptized I believed it was the truth. I was only 17 when we married, and he was a dangerously abusive man. I stayed with him for almost seven years until he was forcibly committed to a hospital mental ward for the second time. I made a confession of adultery to rid him from my life and was df'd a believer. Eventually the truth about the "truth" began to sink in, then Barbara Anderson and Bill Bowen on Dateline convinced me that it wasn't the truth, and JWN taught me the many reasons why.

Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!! It's sad that your kids didn't remember. That happened to me one year. I was df'd, and my jw mom and brother were shunning me, so they wouldn't have marked the day even if they were allowed to celebrate. My dad and his sister, Shirley were the only family I was in contact with at the time, and I heard nothing from them. Feeling very sorry for myself, I called Shirley to ask why she didn't even send a card. She answered that she wondered the same thing about me. And then it dawned on me....her birthday was on the same day as mine. From that day on, we always made sure to send cards to each other until she slipped away in death.

WT Society Feels they are Above the Laws of the Land - Even in their own....
by flipper in...... words.
knowing that the candace conti child abuse case was probably coming down the turnpike as was the 5 out of court child abuse settlements the wt society settled in san diego, california - this past april as most of you know the wt society sent a secret letter instructing all elders to essentially keep their " pie-holes " shut ( mouths for those not hip to modern lingo ) and essentially instructed them to not divulge anything to any authorities investigating crimes or other information concerning wt organization operations.. someone posted a thread on this in april, however - with all the news coming out about wt child abuse coverups, the anonymous organization investigating the wt society , i felt it important to reveal some snippets of what the wt society instructed their elders regarding legal issues.
in one section it states, " when someone seeks confidential information : you should never reveal confidential information to anyone unless theocratic procedure requires it or the branch office has instructed you to do so.

The recent Anonymous data also suggests that they are involved with money laundering and tampering with the judicial process. I hope they are investigated and prosecuted.
DT, I read that too, but I'm not so sure it was one of the hacktivists that said it. It could have been anyone who wrote that, because anyone can register there and make comments. I did, but not about the money laundering.

Why is everything based on status in this organization?
Because the higher the status, the more you're doing for the Watch Tower for free.
