WT March 15, 2016 - Kids pressured toward baptism again
by Designer Stubble inthe study wt of march 2016 is up on jw.org and is the standard article around this time of year...pressuring young kids to dedicate their lives to the organization again.
this wt will be studied during may, so just in time to pressure them into baptism at the regional conventions this summer.such articles really upset me, as the realization of how many young promising lives will be destroyed.
how many families will be broken up, when the child who got baptized as a minor (ages 6 and up are mentioned in the literature) decides as a young adult that his/her conscience no longer allows him/her to be part of such a destructive cult.

I came across a JW video on Youtube. It was produced in 2015 by the Watchtower.
It's titled Child Abuse - Jehovah's Witness Perspective
A sister tells about years of child abuse by a family friend when she was younger, this appears to be before her family became JWs. She explains how finding Jehovah has helped her in many ways. She says that she still struggles from time to time with negative feelings and emotions but she finds physical excercise helps, as well as praying down on the beach.
The bottom line is that if you've been abused try to get rid of those negative feelings and don't do anything practical about it like informing authorities or seeking professional help.

The Watchtower Letters
by NeonMadman inseveral years ago, i put together a compilation of various types of correspondence between me and the watchtower society, that occurred over the 30 years i was a jw.

The Jehovah's Witnesses' Governing Body are Elitists (Here is why)
by Terry inan "elite" group is one which has special privileges not granted to others.. and obscurantist elite, is a group which hides information by virtue of its own claim to be special and a sole source in dispensing necessary truths.. to wit:.
the gb's elitism shines through in articles such as this:.
“thus the bible is an organizational book and belongs to the christian congregation as an organization, not to individuals , regardless of how sincerely they may believe that they can interpret the bible .

When you start having personal helpers (averaghiing at least 4 per GB member)you've got to be seen as aletist. But this is what they want, they need to establish that authority. -

It has always been a business: Miracle Wheat Investigation highlights WT Finances in 1911
by ILoveTTATT2 ini am still not done with the miracle wheat article... there's just so much information to process!
i already did the summary, and the new information that i have doesn't change my conclusion: the entire scandal happened because russell was very gullible and didn't check with government agencies to see if the wheat was legitimate or not.
he went into a business venture on which he knew nothing about.here's some interesting stats about the finances of the watchtower back in 1911:it received, from the sale of books and donations, $150,000.

Ilovettatt, how much more there is to this story other than what was printed in their magazines is probably a mystery. There also appears to be something about miracle rye as well.
I don't think they were being very honest about a brother called John Bonnet and his farm.http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/52873/secret-corporations -
