  it’s now official - the governing body members are called for legal deposition in a major court case against jehovah’s witnesses!

  https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/1ke6cgh/its_now_official_the_governing_body_members_are/.

  recent court documents show that members of the jehovah’s witnesses governing body — including former member tony morris — have been officially subpoenaed to give sworn testimony regarding cases of sexual abuse in new york and how the organization dealt with (or essentially hid) them.

  Youths who gave up amazing lives

  when i was growing up i remember many young people interviewed on the platform at assemblies.

  the ones who really stood out are the talented ones who gave up amazing lives to pioneer.. i remember specifically when i was a boy in the 70s and 80s some who were very good at sport or something.

  their teachers begged them to get professional training use their talents to the full.

  how many of you here remember 1975?

  i hope the newer generations never forget.the true believers got shamed for it.

  those who were hedging their bets, fared much better.

  I lived throught the 75 hype .

  I was at a convention in Christchurch New Zealand in late 74 when one of the G.B giving a talk said " This is likely the last assembly this side of Armageddon"

  1976 Nathan Noor goes on a world wide specking tour as numbers were going down like a fat boy on a seesaw.

  Ive spken to people over the years who lived through it but still deny it..They deny what they have seen with their own eyes.

  I was at an Assembly om Christchurch New Zealand in 1974 , One of the G.B said "This is quite likely the last Assembly this side of Armageddon "

  I heard the talks about Brothers selling everything to pioneer for the short remaining time till the end.

  I read the W.t articles from late 60's saying the end was coming in 75.

  After 75 and the WTS was loosing member flat out Nathon Noor went on a world wide specking tour trying to rally the troops but 10's of thousands left.

  My answer to anyone who denies it look up the W.Ts articals for yourself and did the 10's of thousands who left all get it wrong?

  My old congro in New Zealand was closed down a few years ago.

  In 1991 we built a K.H that seated 240 and was filling up fast 2 congros.

  Now one congro and emptying out as fast.

  Attended JW funeral today

  never miss a marketing opportunity—even at a funeral.

  funerals aren’t the first place you’d expect marketing.

  but jehovah’s witnesses know how to turn every moment into an opportunity to share their message.. during funerals, they weave in their teachings of hope and resurrection, offering comfort and, at the same time, presenting their beliefs to attendees who may not be part of the faith.

  I got a message from the person who wishes to remain anonymous to clear a few things up.

  Got it wrong the offender was 17 when he left his step parents home and moved in with his girlfriend .

  so last abouse was when he was 17.

  He is now an M.S and not many people in his congro know of his past.

  In this country its hard to prosecute the offender whithout the victoms laying a complant.

  The fact that the W.T.S refuse to remove from the letter that follows him is that it was consensual.

  Hey Karter can you post this for me? As you know my ex wife and i adopted her brother at 7 years old when his parents passed away.

  We brought him up a J.W but he left at 16 and moved in with his girlfriend.

  It came out he had been interfering with our 3 daughters when they were very young.

  He never got prosecuted becouse my daughters didnt want to ( i suspect their mother a hard out J.W has something to do with that) so basicly he walked free.

  Latter in life he left his girlfreind comes back to the J.Ws and they welcome him like the prodical son and he marries a J.W.

  If anyone reading this thinks the J.Ws like to hide C.S A read on.

  It came to my attention recently by 2 ex Elders that had read the letter that followers him when he moves congros that it says the sex bettween him and my daughters was consensual..they were under 10 years old.

  This were it gets disgusting.

  I approach the P.O of my old congro and ask him who wrote the letter he said he had moved by that time go see another Elder .. i did he didnt know as well and said for me to ring the branch.

  I DID AND THEY WERE NOT INTERESTED IN CHANGING THE LETTER AT ALL BASICLY GO AWAY.

  The offender has moved congros 3 times and every time they elders think my daughters under 10 went along with this POS.

  Not sure what my next move is as the branch here has closed down and they operate out of a diffrent country.

  If anyone wants to ask questions ill P.M the reply to you.
