Here's the response I get from a comment I made to an online article for Billboard Magazine, on Prince's life as a JW:
Debra Labelle C S5 hours ago"Your a liar and hater of the true God Jehovah. I feel very sorry for you."
In my comments, I brought up the many lawsuits, as well as the ARC, then tied it into a possible reason that the WTB&TS would want to inherit Prince's fortune.
Here's the actual article if anyone would like to read it, or perhaps join in the commenting spectacle. LoL.

Bingo! This is a DIFFERENT victim altogether. The first suit was brought by Jose Lopez. Mr. Padron is the latest.
Not to mention the others who have previously settled.

The Australian list contained just over 1000 names of abusers. The US database allegedly contains over 20,000! Holy CRAP!?!
This number shouldn't surprise though, given the overall greater number of JW adherents in the US, compared to Australia. Furthermore, the very EXISTENCE of such a list shouldn't shock, as parts of the US database WERE apparently shown to the appeals judge. They were just too blanked-out & redacted to be of any use.
Incidentally, much of Prince's involvement with the JWs is now making the rounds on news websites. Many journalists are pondering as to who will inherit his vast estate. I've seen comments to these stories which make reference to the ARC & pedo lawsuits, as well as the overall 'cultiness' of the JWs. Now would be a good opportunity to make some comments of our own, with specific reference to this San Diego case & the WTs potentially HUGE pedophile database. It would hopefully start getting the attention of more NON-JWs. I'd personally love to see 60 Minutes go after 'em!
Here's one such article. Their are more just like it. Simple 'Google' "Prince Jehovah's Witness," under the NEWS topic, and you'll get plenty o' hits:

Was this guy an elder? MS? CO? Just wondering how 'high up' he was.
Seems as if the greater one's 'rank' in the org, the higher the expectations & stress level. Just wondering if he one of those types, who was: stressed, depressed, cognitively dissonant, awake yet conflicted, or whatever. Not to say this would directly cause his behavior, but it might be a contributing factor.

Good article - Are Jehovah's Witnesses a religious Ponzi scheme?
by defender of truth inwww.the-newshub.com/general/are-jehovahs-witness-a-religious-ponzi-scheme

I see it as less of a rant, and more of a thorough news article, with plenty of examples cited, Watchtower articles & books properly referenced down to the page/s. If only the Watchtower would provide references like that, or perhaps not take the ones they DO so out-of-context.
The author ties the blood transfusion issue into one if the WT's MANY false promises, while building the case that all these FALSE PROMISES are tantamount to a ponzi scheme. He ties these seemingly loose ends together at the end of the article, making a good case for the WT being a big scam.
It reminded me of some of the articles I've read in "The Economist," concerning such schemes in the business world. To someone accustomed to a more 'get-to-the-point,' style of writing, this piece might be a little incoherent, or at least long-winded.

Very Weird Experience During Recent Special Talk After Memorial
by Tenacious inhesitantly i attended this talk with my family and sat through it without batting an eye.. mentally i take myself out during the entire meeting some would describe this as daydreaming or zoning out.
whatever the case may be, for some reason this particular speaker, whom i know of but not personally, got my attention the way he would say certain phrases.
he cited some texts that directly advised the audience that faith in christ was the only way to salvation.

Ok...my reply got deleted for some reason. I was simply asking Tenacious what the reaction of the rank & file were? Did they just go along with it? Or were there some puzzled looks? I'm just curious as to how 'deep' someone can get in a belief system, to the point where even the Flying Spaghetti Monster sounds rational. It might help me in dealing with some JWs among my friends and some family. Thanks. -

Tenacious, I gotta ask: when he made so many references to the Father, then emphasized faith in Jesus as a path to salvation, what did all the rank & file do? Did they just bob their heads in agreement? Smile with glazed-over eyes? Or did you see many puzzled looks and head scratching?
