Vidiot that would be great question to ask.
Also they let this pedo brother man one of the tables they used at the local bus stop, They said it was OK because there were always at least two other JW's with him.

One of the pedo's in the hall I went to was a baptized JW when the rap of an 8 year old occurred, Oh wait he also served in the military and was some huge big shot he calmed, he would go on and on and on in his comments at the meeting about his military life, and also 'he did't really do the crime he only took the rap for his son as he did't want his son to have to go to prison. This is what one of the prominent in elder's in the hall told me and this elder said that it was commendable, just really missed placed thinking because this showed how much this baptized pedo brother loooooved his son, kind of like David and Absalom. Aint that just sweet. I am being sarcastic in case any of you don't get it.
It just makes my blood boil reading this.

"Inactive" non Attenders, how much power do the JW's have over YOU ?
by Phizzy ini was thinking about this because of the constant reminders we get in posts that we inactive non attenders have to be careful what we say to jw's, and what we do that they may learn about etc, if we don't wish to be before a j.c. the power they have is limited by what we give them.
now, i do not wish to be declared df'd of da'd, it would kill my old mum i think.. but i refuse to live my life looking over my shoulder, that, in my opinion, is giving them too much power.. i openly vote, i openly donate blood, i enjoy the odd cigar etc etc.. how much power do you allow them to have over you ?.

More power than I would like also, partly because my husband is still in and I now realize that it is somewhat stuck in my brain. I hate it but I have stepped back and realized that when things go wrong or I do something like vote or send a birthday card or whatever I still feel like I have broken some law and feel like I am going to be caught.
It is totally crazy but at least I am acknowledging it, I think for so long I was lying even to myself that it did not affect me but growing up in it from the age of zero till I work up in my 40's it is stuck in my head and it just does not go away unless you realize it and work on it. That is my new goal.
Also to make friends that support me, when I first realized ttatt I panicked and jumped to ex JW and anyone who would befriend me. That turned out to be not so good as many ex JW are missed up also, I realize now that I need to slow down and respect myself instead of trying to get approval from other, like I felt I needed to in the JW world.

Where I live they were sending pedophiles or as I like to call them baby or child rapist out with some young person who has not a clue of their back ground. Or with the pedophiles wife who married him with a little girl like that would protect the public. It is just really and truly sick. They cannot be cured and some BS that he could not help it because he was in the war just shows that he has not regret as far as I see it. 95 to 99 percent re-offend period. Those are not odds I want to stake a child's life on. There is a special place in hell for those who are allowing it.

Who is Your Mediator? ---- proof readers required
by jwfacts ina number of posters here have said that the watchtower doctrine that jesus is not our mediator is the one that they find most disturbing.
for this reason i have written a new article to post on my site.
the article is long, but i would appreciate if people could check it for doctrinal and historical accuaracy.

Convicted Child Rapist Proselytizing. Is the Community Aware? Is the Community Safe?
by freemindfade inwow, this is awesome.

That is what I have always wondered how is it legal for them to go door to door. If they are convicted should not there be laws against it. I know I have spoken to the police department where I live and they know that JW's are sending convicted pedophiles DTD and they don't do anything to stop it. They do not like it but there does not seem to be any laws in place to prevent it.

I have been showing this to everyone that I know and they are appalled. I have it on my smart phone, it's a great way to get .the word out and I tell them that it is happening right where we live, I have myself been demanded that I take pedophiles door to door myself. I refused but I was told I had to and that I had no chose because my husband was an elder by the CO.

I have called Bethel myself and they have taken names etc and they do nothing it is just a way to shut me up. At first I honestly thought they would do something but I was so wrong. It is just so sad they just do not care. They know only too well this is going on.

Thanks on the way out. This religion is totally crazy and living with a active JW just has been making me feel very crazy lately, I do not know why but it has just been really getting to me now. I thought it would get easier the longer I was away but it is always there when he goes to the meetings and out in service even though I don't in the back of my mind I think will he have another heart attack? I know darn well that who ever he is with will let my husband drive himself alone to the hospital.
It's like every time he leaves I wonder if he will come home, and so much of the time lately he is in such a bad mood when he comes back from being around the JW's. It is just a ton of stress on him.
Oh well such is life I guess.

Yes that would have been the smart thing for me to do and I get that I was just as stupid as the elder was but I was in total shock. It was the first that I had heard he was even having chest pains. All I could think of was to get to the hospital as fast as I could, I know, I know, I know I was STUPID and I totally own that part. But I was in total shock it was my husband, and all I could think of was that he was dying in front of me. I was not at all thinking clearly that was sort of why I was upset that the elder did not offer any help to me in the least.
I know that is asking too much, I get it especially asking for support from the friends, what in the world was I thinking that there might be any love?
