""I hope that in this debate the video presented at a congress a few years ago in which a mother does not answer the telephone call made by her disfellowshipped daughter will be seen and recorded""

I'm sure that with enough ''leakers'', people who are discontent with the Borg or the Norwegian Gov't looking for information about some American - based religious sect,,,,it will be a matter of time before the Norwegian Gov't catches wind of such videos and they see those videos.

Actually the Borg and it's policies have had more far - reaching,, deadlier and damaging policies over a much llonger period of time than the Branch Davidians. When you add - up the blood doctrine, shunning and two witness rule the damage has been more damaging and devastating.

How far has Watchtower and the GB of Jehovah's Witnesses gone to stalk and silence critics?

by Balaamsass2 in

we have all watched some of the documentaries about the church of scientology hiring detectives to stalk and harass their former members,( their "apostates").

i have heard of individual cases of rabid jw elders stalking ex-jws, and of course, one would expect some enforcement of corporate copyright infringement on anti-jw websites.. what were the most outrageous jw "stalking" or investigation stories you remember?.

tonight's 60 minutes into ebay stalking a middle-aged couple who writes a newsletter reminded me a lot of the menlo park congregation watchtower "takeover", closure, and stalking of local elders to mind.

New blood card

by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

all elders just got letters about this new blood card system .

“language-coordinating congregations will receive separate parcel(s) containing the revised durable power of attorney for health care (dpa-e) for all congregation(s) in their literature group.“.

my questions are - why the revision and what has been revised?.

""Watchtower's official card is simply a "heaven's Gate" Cult suicide pact agreement to prove loyalty.""

To put it quite bluntly, unfortunately, it is what it is.. You can't sugar - coat that. I'm not sure if you're familiar with David A Reed, but he wrote books about that like ''worse than waco''. Just to name one.

Yes,,,more deaths by blood,,,further damage from shunning and 2 witness rule.
