  2 years ago i left jws.

  Pioneer Sister tells my Wife If your Raped just pray to Jehovah for help??

  while being new in the truth my wife dicussed the rape issue with her pioneer {my mums annionted} teacher.

  her response was to say if your raped you need to pray to jehovah for help and just yell for him to stop so it's not considered fornication.

  i was shocked at this so i found her an awake article about a sister who was assulted by a tradesmen in her home.

  and so it goes...

  by metaspy in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  this morning i started this topic: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/7/147355/1.ashx.

  now i shall post the follow-up.. as i predicted, my mom would come with elders in tow to have a conversation.. actually, she threw me for a loop at first.

  no elders with her.. she had them wait a half an hour then she let them in.. thus i couldn't reject the whole lot of them at the door, she was their way in.. secondly, she brought the elders from the nearby hall, not the ones who know me.. the whole time i thought she would go for someone who she knows can dominate my thinking, but instead she went with the unknown.. .

  .and i just thought they were so on top of disaster relief around the world because they cared.

  JWs and charitable work

  by kj in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've read on here several times about how jws are discouraged for doing charitable work for anybody other than jws, and that they are discouraged from contributing financially to non-jw charities.

  are there some references to this in their literature that someone could point me to?.

  also, i had a discussion with a jw about a recent relief effort some jws did in florida.
