  Special Talk During the Meeting Today About the Bad Press in Canada

  by RobertT18 in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i was invited to a congregation in ontario, canada today and as soon as the meeting opened the brother conducting the meeting said there was a very important statement coming from the borg.

  this talk replaced the two last parts of "living as a christian" section.

  he started reading a letter from the borg about how much they loved us.

  The JW`s speak out of both sides of their mouth .

  How is it that their was over 1006 cases of child sexual abuse in Australia being handled by the JW judicial committee in over 50 years and not one case was reported by any of the 3018 Elders who presided over those inquisitions ?

  They lie through their teeth ...FALSE

  schnell , when i converted to the JW`s in 1960 I was an eager couldnt get enough of the material I was absorbing for about 18 months then I had a hiccup where I was a bit stumbled for a short time by people.

  The presiding overseer and his brother the assistant overseer both a prominent family in this congregation were both insurance salesmen .

  I was inactive for a couple of months and recieved a visit from the PO who tried to sell me life insurance and he didnt succeed ,a few weeks later his brother the assistant PO came and intimated that his brother might have been a bit full on in trying to sell me life insurance and he was being a bit more subtle ,but still trying to sell me life insurance, Both of them doing this because they thought I had given completely away what I thought was the truth.

  Weeks later I was in another congregation and another congregation and another congregation in another state and 33 years later I woke up .

  Why didnt I wake up with the PO and also his brother , trying to sell me life insurance because they thought I had given the religion away ?

  What you would need to do is approach Jw`s individually by whatever means you find to identify them .As pointed out the organisation will be no help to you here,

  And I wouldnt hold my breath in thinking you are going to make a killing or even enough to put food on the table selling life insurance to a JW.

  No bona fide JW is going to buy life insurance , no way .Armageddon is always just around the corner so no need for life insurance.

  In fact being a JW is in itself life insurance ,this system cant last more than 5 years ,why do I need life insurance ?

  If I happen to die I will be resurrected ,why do I need life insurance.?

  You obviously have little or no knowledge of the beliefs of Jehovahs Witnesses.

  Do yourself a favour and look elsewhere because you will have no success their.

  Good luck with your career.

  I showed these to my wife and she didnt seem to see the funny side of it oh well. By the way

  She has no time for the Bible or Jehovah.

  I thought she had a sense of humour .

  Numbers 31:17 and 18

  by schnell in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.

  but all the women children that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.. *sigh*.

  it's not that i haven't seen this passage before.

  The scriptures were obviously inspired by a man , a horny man at that with no morals or ethics.

  Apparently" he masturbated in front of two 16 year old school girls asking them if they had a good look and if they enjoyed that."

  VCAT deputy president Heather Lambrick said it was of Grave concern that DXP`s offending spanned many years from his teens to his adult life but,given the time since his last offence she considered him rehabilitated and the chances of his reoffending low

  It goes on to say ," He does however wish to engage in religious activities which require him to speak with people on a door to door basis and for which I accept he requires an Assesment Notice" MS Lambrick said.

  The Judiciary System here in Victoria Australia is under much scrutiny from the general public due to the Police doing their job in bringing offenders to justice and the law courts treating the perpetrators with kid gloves and putting them back on the streets bailing them out sometimes time and time again to reoffend.

  firstly thanks to cofty & smiddy for the kind words on my " final post" .

  this post is simply to say over two months have passed since my last post and since then i have with my wife and son seen elton john live, visited stockholm, berlin, and most importantly appreciated " the natural beauty of my neighbourhood" with out even thinking about the watchtower.

  i have also attended 3 watford football matches with my son and made better relationships with my parents, discovered harvey's draught beer and made new friends in my local pub.

  That is good news to hear The Rebel , the fact that you ,your wife and son are all in a good place enjoying a normal happy life together doing things as a family that you all want to do ,not something that is imposed upon you by a mind control group doing what they want you to do.

  I can relate to you enjoying watching a football game with your son , enjoying a beer or 2 or 3 or more (heaven)

  As another poster often says " A successful life outside JWism is the best answer to them " or something like that.

  And making a better relationship with your parents is a great outcome also.

  Take care
