A Real and Authentic Letter from a Jehovah's Witness Mother to Her Son
by God_Delusion ini found this letter on dave reekie's blog and asked him if i could write a piece about it.
i am glad that he accepted.. it's so rare to find a real, authentic handwritten letter from a jehovah's witness parent to their disfellowshipped child, so we hope you can read it and show it to any apologists that claim the watchtower society doesn't condone shunning.. you can read the article here.. .
warm regards,.

The letter was all about her....what she thinks....what she is going to do....how she feels....how she needs to move forward to her goal of everlasting life.
I love how people say they Love Jehovah and are foregoing their own selfish pursuits and are putting him first when really they are saving their own skin and will throw their own offspring under the bus to do so.

Watchtower's Billion Dollars of Property Cannot Be Sold until Outcome of Conti Appeal
by Dogpatch in30 minutes ago i just got off the phone with some important players in this case, and some things were relayed to me concerning a lot of details of the outcome of the last two days of court.
i am passing this on.
cynthia hampton, one of the main players in the candace conti case (and a close friend of 28 years), just informed me of a further, far more powerful move by the state of california against the watch tower bible and tract society of new york, inc.. by order of the superior court of the state of california - county of alameda (see documents below), until the watch tower's appeal, which won't begin until august 13th and will take up to two years to settle due to due process of law, has forbidden the watch tower to sell any more of its $1 billion in assets in the borough of brooklyn until the appeals case is finished, to assure they won't shelter their monies in the light of this most huge and devastating sexual abuse scandal ever to hit the watch tower society, and perhaps any other single-victim lawsuit.

I think part of the court ordered restitution should be that they make a public appology at the district convention and in the magazines for their disregard of victims of child molesters and tell the rank and file just how their policies made it possible for molesters to repeat their offences and also they should admit just how many cases there have been over the years. This would sting more than the millions they may have to pay.

This was my 'Sign'
by MsGrowingGirl20 inin my previous post i mentioned that i'm staying in the org because i think i got a sign from god...some of you asked a lot of questions about my sign and even shared the society's view on asking for signs which i didn't know.. i didn't disclose exactly what the sign was.. some of you asked me what it was and even stated that i know that you all would pick apart and prove that my sign was just a frivolous excuse to hold on to the org.. maybe you were right.. so i've decided to tell you all exactly what it was---no embellishments or exaggerations.
i would love to hear your opinions since i'm still in a terrible mess.sometimes i'm 100% this is not the truth then other times i'm 60%....i feel if god was giving me a sign i'd be 100% this is the truth you know?.
so i woke up that morning and organized to go meeting.

Giving a talk about "doubts" and having it strike a chord with someone in an audience full of JW's is like shooting fish in a barrel. A talk on "doubts" is a one size fits all, fill in topic suitable for any such emergency such as when a speaker doesn't show up. To think God is sending you little "hints" sounds a bit egocentric especially when there is so much suffering in the world and there are so many who in dire need of the basic necessities of life and who need his help urgently yet receive nothing .

You rarely hear anyone talking about the future with a gleeming forecast. When one looks too far into the future it is always fraught with worry and unknown danger. When they used to beleive that the earth was flat, they feared that if you sailed too close to it's edge you would fall off and be eaten by sea monsters. They could have just as easily beleived that magic fairies would be there at the edge of the world to grant you three wishes, but it was far more realistic and accurate to believe in scary sea monsters instead.
I expect the future will be the same as it has been for every other generation that went before us. There will be the same basic problems only with a new moderen twist and there will be new solutions or ways of coping as there always has been. There will be losses and gains. ie : We now have the advantages of highspeed information today but we've lost a lot of privacy and we sometimes know too much too soon yet we'd never go back to how it used to be.
There will be those who face the future with the same grace and dignity as they always have and there will be those who whine kick,scream, worry and complain no matter what anyone does for them or how well things are going.

I'd hate to be a JW going out in service with all the bad press they're getting right now.

If I hadn't heard about it on here, I wouldn't have heard about it at all. Not even JW's I know are talking about it or even aware of it. Like everything else they do, it seems to be a non-issue to anyone who doesn't have any connection to the organization. I'm sure JW's who do know about it will be exercising their cognative dissonance abilities to put it all down to "persecution" or "Evil Slaves" being manipulated by Satan. This will be just another feather in their Martyr's cap.

"There is no room for individuality in the organization"
"Watching the Flintstones reinforces the notion of evolution and the existence of cavemen"
A comment made in 1974 during the WT study. "There is evidence that there has been an increase in carrion birds around the world....this is Jehovah preparing for the after armegeddon cleanup" The conductor said " let's just stick to the information presented in the paragraph please" (cricket cricket)
