jehovah's witnesses to hand over top-secret manualon friday finland's jehovah's witnesses will give their religious rule book to the minister of justice and the minister of the interior so that it can be inspected to ensure that it's in line with finnish rule of law.
jehovah's witnesses will hand over their secret rule book to the minister of justice, anna-maja henriksson, and the minister of the interior, paivi rasanen.
image: heikki saukkomaa / lehtikuva until now, only senior members of the jehovahs witnesses committee have had access to the congregation's secret book of rules.. the disciplinary activities of the jehovah's witnesses committee have been criticised for violating human rights.. according to anna-maja henriksson, finland's minister of justice, the purpose of the handover is to examine the book and determine whether its rules and regulations run counter to finnish law.. henriksson and interior minister paivi rasanen met on thursday with the leadership of the jehovah's witnesses in helsinki.

do they actually believe that if they tell you that you are "missed", that you will desire to return to the sheepfold?

I am ignored & shunned by so called "friends"
whom I have known for 50 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ha ha it is laughable that they would even try
now to entice me......left 4 yrs ago ...not 1 visit!
Well, thank dog for that really, as I would just be
well ..........not nice! haha
I like Wizards words, speaking about something worthwhile,
"I believe it's because they have something to offer that is
of value--good products, presented nicely, at fair prices."

What does a 100% failure rate cult have to offer?

"Not in my town"
just to let everyone know, a good channel on youtube that i have watched for many years has suddenly been terminated by youtube.
im not sure what video was the issue, his last video was on the occult theocracy book, and others.
i dont really know how his channel got in trouble, as i dont remember him having any videos that could be considered copyright infringments as they are all personal commentary.. interesting.
DallyWally hi,
Wow ...stopping free speach huh...they are
so puffed-up but they're running scared!
tried to get into jw.net twice but a popup informed me that the official website of jw's is jw.org.
this was about 2 hours back.
anybody with a similar experience?.
Good morning HairTrigger just want to say WELCOME!
Hang in there ....you will get it all sorted!

i just ordered this book.
(ok... it's not linking, it's called "i'm perfect, you're doomed: tales from a jehovah's witness upbringing" by kyria abrahams).
i came across it when trying to explain to a coworker about the end of the world images that would be in watchtowers when i was growing up and why they gave me horrible nightmares.
Hey there...welcome Dynamiterose77!

i haven't been on here long but i found this site a couple days ago and quickly realised it had a lot of posts by people going through similar experiences as me.
i read some of the answers and it helped relieve some inner anguish i've been carrying since everything i came clean to my parents about everything i've been reading about.. .
i just have been going through a rough patch right now; that might be an under or overstatement depending on your own personal experiences with this kind of stuff.
A shout out to Sporece ....another new escapee!
Wellcome to you too! Hope you are finding some
answers. Keep digging!

I can tell you for sure, 99.9% of us who leave jehovah's
witnesses ....are afraid to speak!
Love your name & a huge welcome to you.
There is no need to rush this thing ... slowlyslowly
wins the race. Try to balance everything on your plate
right now ... above all get out in the fresh air for a walk.
Think about how your brothers can be your support.

Your mother asked you to stop reading all the material that
"contradicts God's word" Sweetie your mother thinks that all
the watchtower magazines etc...ARE gods word.
I doubt that much of what you are reading is contradicting
the BIBLE!!!

Lots of food for thought, from all your new friends,
hang around here and keep posting... all the best!

at the risk of being shouted down, i thought i'd point out that "tithing" means giving 10 percent of your income to a church.
it comes from the old english word teogotha meaning tenth.
i've seen nothing that establishes tithing in the watchtower.. while i'm all in favor of pointing out the watchtower's lies, hypocrisies and faults, the language we use matters.
The scripture wt has used, is 2 Cor 9:7..........
"Let each one do just as he has resolved in his heart,
not grudgingly or under compulsion, for god loves a cheerful giver."

Geez having wt putting their hands into my
bank account ....does not make me cheerful!
