..Proplog2..and..The WBT$ Rule,that Protects Pedophiles..

by OUTLAW in

proplog2..just got back on the board and saw your pm to me..lol!

!..of course it`s not right to publicly post your pm to me..but..i find nothing wrong in publicly answering you..............you have made a big deal about the "wbt$ 2witness rule",dealing with child molesters..the rule that protects pedophiles!..you advocate this rule.you like this rule.you are willing to argue about how right this rule is,with anyone!................you have also publicly stated.that you have purposely kept the doors open in your own home,to keep your own children from molesting each other..what would you do if you caught them molesting each other?..you advocate the "wbt$ 2witness rule"..without 2witness`s,you advocate doing nothing..without 2witness`s,your willing to protect a pedophile........given the circumstances of how you say you conduct affairs in your own home..and..your absolute willingness to protect pedophiles with the "wbt$ 2witness rule"....your staunch advocation of the "wbt$ 2witness rule" comes under scrutiny.....so i ask:"do you feel you need the protection,the "wbt$ 2witness rule" would give you?

"..the rule that protects pedophiles!......it`s a simple question to answer.....the question is neither out of order,or harassment..you are the one that made all of this,"public knowledge"..and..went so far,as to "pm" me about it.....................................outlaw

Look at the bible that he shows in this video

by MsMcDucket in

i like the song.

it's reggae music for those of you that don't like this type of music.

i was shocked to see a "new world translation".

That was interesting...By the words he sings it does make me think also he could be studying or has.

Do you believe that the majority of JW's will be saved?

by JH in

if there is a god, do you think that the majority of jw's will be saved at armageddon?.

i'm not asking if they have the only true religion, i'm asking if you think they would be saved along with others who do god's will sufficiently to satisfy him.....

Is it "Healthy" for every JW to think alike like they do....

by JH in

i like variety and different opinions and i don't see that in the jw's...... what can this lead to?.

Hope4Others

Where everyone thinks exactly alike, no one thinks very much.

Journal of a JW - Part 1 of 5

by Nosferatu in

dear journel, .

this is my first official entry into this thing.

i tried once before but it didn't work.

Sounds like a typical jw early 20's not much going on in life, stressed to unbelievable amounts. Just worrying about a job to go to..Isn't it a shame no career to look forward to at this point or even extra education to get just somewhere.

This is sad

I'm hoping her life improves in the next segment.

Two years out of the org for me. What I have learned & accepted about life!

by jambon1 in

if i had written this a year ago, i would be writting different comments about my observations.. yet, that is the pivotal point for me.

that is the reason why i could never have remained a jw.

my point?

Isn't it all about DE-programing yourself ? Ridding your self from the guilt & fear that there is something wrong with you without imploding?

There's still the rare occasion within the past 10 years that I will question a thought, but being indoctrinated for 20-30 years really digs in.

I agree also that being positive has helped me move ahead and replacing the gap with other interests that you enjoy.

What if regular meeting attendance wasn't a requirement?

by R.F. in

we all know how regular meeting attendance is the ultimate way of measuring the "faith" of those among the religion, other than field service reports.

what do you think would happen with the attendance numbers if you were only encouraged to go as a sort of option, if you weren't hounded for not attending regularly?
