  I have some questions about the Org.!

  by KerryKing in

  2. beliefs

  are any or all of the gb from jewish descent?.

  why are they so fascinated with following ancient jewish 'principles' ?.

  isa 43:10, 44:8 ' you are my witnesses ' which they based their religious identity on, jehovah's witnesses, yet those verses address the jews, not christians, which they profess to be.. jesus said in ac 1:8 'you will be witnesses of me ', .

  Jew is usually someone born of a Jewish mother (but in very liberal cases, a paternal line is sometimes acknowledged today).

  Interestingly enough, in Bible times a Jewish identity was reckoned from the male line and only after the founding of Rabbinic Judaism did it change to the maternal line (it's thought around the 4th or 5th century C.E. although no one knows for sure). It's funny because I always assumed it had always been through the female line, since back then it was the only provable line.

  was very creepy. Used to show up at my house, uninvited, with a bottle of wine. Telling me things like "Im not circumcised, but I pull that skin back every day, and wash myself.” 🤮

  Oh Lord....where do they find these perverts...🤦🏻‍♀️

  Tahoe May be interesting to rifle through some of that old Watchtower paperwork...perhaps some old tracts and books/elder manuals?

  Aww no.....I hope everything is okay with Kim. It's just that coincidentally Lloyd's patreon funding has dipped back to its previous level..... I hope he's not called Dijana in to pull on Kim's heartstrings !!

  Elena would his family still be together? Would he have better friends and quality of life? Would his children have a happier childhood and future than the one they have now?

  Are you serious?!! They'd be witness to their father psychologically abusing their mother on the daily - only without so much chance of her escaping (without a shed load of self recrimination and guilt). For witness girls without positive outside influences there'd be the possibility of a similar future mapped out for them, too.

  Jana I cannot and will not defend or debate his actions, admissions and accusations.
  

  Clearly......even a tag team of Judge Judy and Rumpole of the Bailey would have their work cut out there!

  Jana I only wanted to come in here and be clear about my level of involvement in his channel.

  oh it was plenty clear enough without you coming on here

  jana wouldn't you rather there be someone there to bring a sensitivity to the topic? To bring a lived experience to the topic?

  ah my favourite phrase..."lived experience". Is there any other kind? Do you think your life experience in any way excuses you from such gross insensitivity as to collude - lets not be coy in order to chalk up clicks and subs - with a repeat sex tourist who used some of the worlds most traffiked girls, for whom consent nor age can ever be verified by a punter, on of all things a CSA video.

  I just hope your 5 mins of noteriety was worth it...

  he does seem to have kept Dijanna's family to ransom to a certain extent. by the sounds of his previous rants.

  Aside from those execrable letters he sent to Dijana, for which I have no words, the way he blackmailed her long-suffering parents with the threat of denying them their only grandchild (at the time), demonstrates the emotional response he reverts to, time and again, are the crumbs he picked up at the table of a controlling and abusive cult.

  My grandmother called my mother

  so, i’m just posting this as a warning to lurking jws.

  if you’re still on the fence, here is a story.. my grandmother, now in her 80s hasn’t talked to anyone in the family for over 20 years ever since my mother was the last one of her children that left ‘the truth’, she had sent my mother a card to never talk to her again.

  so here we are 21 years later, she gets a call out of the blue that she needed help, she hadn’t been able to get into her kitchen.

  My dad is 91. Lives in a apt. by himself with only 3 other neighbors nearby in a small town. No backyard, no pets allowed, just four walls and his zoom meetings. I own 75 acres of wooded land with ponds and much wildlife less that an hour from him. He loves nature. But, he'd rather end his days in misery rather than enjoy his sons and grandsons who can't live with his WT lies.

  sea breeze that kills me to hear things like that. How tragic to miss his grandsons and such heaven on earth like that
