And, the courts almost always agree with them.
I've been to that center lots of times; it is a sports arena, not suitable for elderly persons at all.

Wow, Terry!
I can see you and her in my mind.
Were you two on I-20?
Dorothy must be 90-ish; still driving? A pickup?
I like the oblique reference to RLS.

Sick bastard is too kind a description for the likes of him.
And, a supposed pastor!
The report is that she was a talented, compassionate, productive teacher.
What a loss.

“money doesn’t necessarily have any connection with happiness.

I'm 90% PIMO but events in Russia made me stop and think maybe Jehovah is real and helping
by Isambard Crater ini'm at the stage where i'd love a big scandal to come along showing clearly that the j.w's are not the true religion, but sometimes i get touched inside by various thoughts or events, the russian court trial being one of them.. i mean, j.w's are understandably fixated with attending the memorial, so why didn't the court say it will resume on monday or tuesday, instead setting wednesday 12 april as the date?
part of me believes the comments from pro-j.w's that jehovah moved events so they could attend the memorial.. it seems the j.w's will not be banned, which makes my mind and heart wrestle between thinking jah's behind it, or maybe the ministry of justice is just woefully prepared compared to the superb australian royal commission team who did their homework.
it surprises me the russians seemingly haven't done any homework..

Why are the individuals who make up the Governing Body so deluded
by UnshackleTheChains insurely these men must see what's going on.
if they can afford fancy pinky rings, they must have smart phones.
if they have smart phones, they must be inquisitive as to how they are perceived.

If they can afford fancy pinky rings ...
Now, now.
One of them has a browny ring, if one at all.

WT Society Creates the Atmosphere which Spawns Child Abuse in Congregations
by flipper inbeen thinking about this lately after almost 14 years out of the jw cult myself.
when you think of the language used within the jehovah's witness organization in such a closed society environment in how the wt society promotes almost absolute " trust " in the elders , the governing body, and trust even in the " friends " in the congregation themselves- is it any wonder that unscrupulous child molesters can enter any congregation pretending to be " spiritual " and take advantage of unsuspecting children or the parents ?
think about it : an individual is judged as a " spiritual " person within the jw organization based on what wt functions or duties they are good at performing.

Flipper, good thread, Brother.
You are right; WT fosters an environment where scammers and abusers can roam freely.
Down here, we have a reputation for being trusting and hospitable, and city slickers sometimes try to take advantage of this.
One came down from Detroit, and a pushy sister tried her best to get my little JW daughter interested in him.
This sorry you-know-what didn't even have a job; I told her if she didn't get him off my property, I would notify my daughter's crazy Jamaican dad.
Yay, mon.
That was all it took to send both of them running like a scalded dog!
The nerve of them! I'm getting steamed all over again just thinking about it.
