Another sex abuser

by Honeybucket in

i'm tyoing this up on my phone, so forgive me if i don't give all i do or spell anything correctly.

today i saw in the local newspaper in skagit valley washington a local man was sentenced to prison for child pornography.

at firat i wasn't i terested in the article until i saw the defendants name.

Ok there's no research on the subject, that I'm aware of, but this cannot be normal....the number of JW abusers is staggering.

Is it repressive rules that trigger abberent behaviour?

Are he peados just attracted to the org because of the treatment of women and kids makes it easier to abuse and stay hidden?

Churches/Kingdom Halls can be a hot place for sexual predators because everyone is perceived to be trustworthy wholesome and righteous.

Or is it as Finky says?

Are peado's attracted to religion in General and is this a problem within all religious groups? If so,why?

Or is it a ring, an informed organized ring with members that reach right up to the highest echelons within the org?

Can we have a debate? What do you guys think? I just think the figures must be staggering for such a small group of people.

What do you think is the origin of Giants and/or Sasquatch?

genesis says a lot about both pre-flood and post-flood giants.the really big nasty ones drowned in the flood but there were lots of others the israelites had to overcome including the king of basham with his 11 foot iron bed.people nowadays are much smaller and i think its due in part to us losing more and more of adams perfection.

i turn my attention to the animals that went onboard the ark but are as yet undiscovered.

during president knorr's time the panda bear was discovered in a market place in china and eventually an american team tracked them down in the wild.

On a serious note, in Tibet there were many legands which report seeing this large, furry, 'Bigfoot' 'Yeti' creature. They had some fur reportedly belonging to the fierce creature. When they tested its DNA, it came back as similar to a polar bear/grisly bear. This theory has now been challenged, though, but they still claim its a bear.

The real Edward Gentry People nowadays are much smaller and I think its due in part to us losing more and more of Adams perfection.

LOL....perfect, you mean like Jeptath who sacrificed his daughter...burnt her to a crisp on an altar.

Or perfect like the lovely Lott who had a threesome with his daughter's.

Then there is the PERFECTLY delightful Sampson who went on a rampage committing arson, robbery and mass murder.

Not to mention the perfect ARCH COWARD DAVID who sent a soldier, fighting for him, intentionally to his death so he could commit adultery with the soldiers wife. Then allowed his infant son to pay the price of his infidelity with his life. He similarly allowed his people to die in their thousands to pay the for his own sins.

Perfect like Abraham, who agreed to sacrifice his son when asked by a random unknown voice. Who married his sister then tricked a man into almost committing adultery with her, just for his own material gain. Who drove his own son into the desert, when just a baby, without water, shelter or food and who forced himself on the child's mother because she was his slave.

Perfect like Issac who tricked his hard working brother out of his birth right, when he was hungry and needed something to eat.

They sure were so much more perfect than we are....I bet God can't wait to make us more like them; therefore MORE IN HIS OWN IMAGE!

2 witness rule

by punkofnice in

i'm gobsmacked.. the 7 rock star popes in warwick know darned well that the 2 witness rule allows child rapists to get away with their crime.. geoff (whacko jacko) jackson was at the australian royal commission and should have seen first hand what a vile man made law the 2 witness rule is.. my question is, why do they still insist on this pervert protecting rule?.

i know it's a highly controlling cult but still...........................stuff my old boots, mate!.

the above is more a rhetorical question.

Diogenesister

Fishy The gov could also proscribe child abusers from joining any churches. ... In the meantime, legislation is what it is

Now that's a bizarre thing to say. Nobody said or implied child abusers shouldn't join churches.

Aside from the fact that time and again Watchtower has not reported *despite* mandatory reporting; why do they need to be forced to do the right thing.

No one wants them to form JC's, either, without their blasted 2 Witnesses; they can do what the heck they want with their jc's. What we ask, what anyone who Cares for the welfare of kids ask, is that if they get a report of child abuse they refer it to the authorities and let them deal with it. Period.

"we would never deliberately distort a quotation"

by ttdtt in

omg my head exploded!in this months broadcast - splian goes off on how much care the wt in making sure its facts are correct, and how they make sure their quotes are not taking from people who have a bad reputation or have an agenda.

and that the make sure its always in context!.

they are such liars!.

Diogenesister

Wasn't it utterly unbelievable, apparently they go through each piece many Times to ensure all the facts are correct, firstly, and also not quoted out of context AND TO MAKE SURE INFORMATION IS PRESENTED AS THE AUTHOR INTENDED.

Literally everything they said they don't do, they actually DO.

I kept watching in amazement thinking...are these people liers, are they deluded, are they captive PIMO or are they stupid?

Superpower after perfection?

by The Real Edward Gentry in

there is much speculation about our perfect life ahead.

a big way jw's are wrong is they do not allow for the human need to specualte on this life ahead.

except for governing body, no one else can speculate.

Diogenesister

We know we will soon have big perfect bodies and very high IQ brains.

We already use our total brain capacity...it's just that we don't use all parts of our brain at the same time ( as they are responsible for different executive functions). It is a jw myth that humans only use a small percentage of our brain currently. We are as smart as we'll ever be.

Talking to the animals like Balaam and his wise donkey.

Horse whisperer?.....if we care to take the time, it's already possible to talk to animals
NB we talk to each other - (we are animals, look how simian the baby in my avatar is).

My ex-bethelite buddy found TTATT through his prostitute friend.

by silentbuddha in

so yesterday evening i get an invite through facebook fro a name that was familiar, but i couldn’t place the face.

after clicking on the page i saw a close-up pic to realize it was a friend of mine from 15 years ago at bethel.. when this guy arrived at bethel he was big time.

he was in early 20’s and had given up a job as an engineer at what was one of the largest electronics companies in the world.

Diogenesister

SilentBuddha a lot went to clubs as well as Houston street although we were explicitly told not to.

Now that I have heard about from many an ExBethelite.In fact I heard in the 80s 70s they would go to a very famous club called CBGB's where some great musicians and bands had their genesis like Patti Smith Group and Blondie, Talking Heads, Beastie Boys, Ramones etc etc

Bet uncle punky is green with jealousy about that; I know I am!

Watchtower Loses an Appeal

by TerryWalstrom in

publication court of appeal, fourth appellate district division one state of california osbaldo padron, plaintiff and respondent, v. watchtower bible and tract society of new york, inc., defendant and appellant.findingwatchtower has abused the discovery process.

it has zealously advocated its position and lost multiple times.

yet, it cavalierly refuses to acknowledge the consequences of these losses and the validity of the court's orders requiring it to produce documents in response to request number 12. and, in a further act of defiance, watchtower informed the court that it would not comply with the march 25, 2016 order 39 requiring it to produce documents responsive to request number 12. the court, following lopez, supra, 246 cal.app.4th 566, as an incremental step toward terminating sanctions if watchtower persists in its unjustified conduct, imposed monetary sanctions.

There are many signs that will tell you when your marriage is doomed.

I believe lying is the number one thing. I don’t care how many more years you are together when the lying starts your days are numbered.

Couldn't agree more. I believe I've read that [ spoiler alert] you did, in fact, seperate in the end? I know you paid a heavy price to regain your freedom - if you love somebody....set them free 🎤🎶as they say, well, Watchtower certainly doesn't love anybody in that case. I really hope you are in a better place now, friend.😀
