Grad. party... hard core jw relatives won't come cause we invited d'fed relatives
by moomanchu inour son graduated this year.
we are having a graduation party for him at our house and decided to invite all of the family.. some jw's relatives aren't coming (some are still deciding) because they found out their would be d'fed relatives (2) there.. my question is... is there any society info to counter the hard core jw stance on this?.
on a funny note the one jw declined the invite..... in his reply he called it a graduation gathering instead of party, unbelievable.. thanks for any help.. .

maybe elders should just stay the FUCK out of cases like rape, murder, theft, etc..
let the "sword" (authorities) take care of it, and they can use that information to enact action on the person...

What Birth Sign Were You Born Under ?
by flipper indidn't know if this has been addressed before , but it's kinda interesting.
when we were witnesses we were always told,oh!
don't look at horoscopes or read anything about your sign because it's demonized !

astrology is immoral and irresponsible, completely inconsistent and conflicting, even worse than the bible ;)

it makes sense no matter what.
what can the congregation do?
the problem is not the 2 witness rule. that makes sense. what doesnt is IF the elders are discouraging kids from going to authority for any reason.
After that authority proves the rape actually happened, wouldnt it make sense they would be the "2nd witness" ?

i havent seen a case where
person A says "person B raped me" !!!
and a court convicted person B without any other evidence.. unless person B admitted to it, of course.
there always is another witness isnt there?
thing is, JW elders are not CSI, forensics or anything - legal cases should be brought to legal entities, without fear of being called a "slanderer".
anything in the congregation takes 2 witnesses. it makes sense. people who are victims of sexual abuse need to go to LEGAL entities. And if JW elders discourage this, they should be prosecuted.

Is Watchtower a Terrorist Organization?
by cameo-d inany who do choose to depart and announce their decision to terminate their membership are regarded as abandoning god's organization and protection and voluntarily entering the world of satan,[149][150] becoming part of the antichrist.[151]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/beliefs_and_practices_of_jehovah's_witnesses.
since watchtower has announced in print to the world that those who leave the wt are part of the anti-christ.... and knowing that this word triggers an automatic fear/hate response from the masses of all christian religions.... .
has watchtower engaged in an act of terrorism by inciting a hate/fear focus to be aimed at a specific group of people?.

no.
they explicitly state from the platform (at least since, 2003?)
so and so is NOT a jehovahs witness.
however, even though you ARENT a JW, somehow they still feel it nessecary to keep files on you, and keep tabs on you.
its cloudy, imo.
