EX JW teen just signs with legendary producer!!!!!
by Lady Liberty indear friends,.
it has been a long time since i have posted.
time heals much pain, and finally, my family and i have been able to move on with our life outside of jw land.. many of you became our friends, our support system, and you know very well our exit story...we were labeled, slandered and disfellowshipped for having questions regarding the date 607. we sent out letters exposing the elders and circuit overseer to over 200 families.

Showbusiness, especially the pop music industry, is such a wonderful, wholesome environment for your sweet, talented daughter to be immersed in. Hope she survives.

More anti-apostate rhetoric from the Watchtower - are they running scared?
by cedars inyes, the may 15th watchtower is now available for download from jw.org.. the final study article, on page 26, directs another salvo at apostates - and warns witnesses not to try arguing with them on the internet:.
indeed, we ought to move as far away from wrongdoing as possible and not see how close we can get to it without being overcome by sin.
for instance, we need to guard against succumbing to apostasy, a sin that would make us unfit to glorify god.

That would be my conclusion in light of just the last few months intense focus on the subject by the Borg.
They must be feeling the heat and they know their credibility is a joke. Pull up the drawbridge. Close your eyes and put your fingers in your ears.

Letter to the Writing Department from Barbara Anderson
by Dogpatch ini thought i knew you.
an open letter from barbara anderson to watch towers writing department.
in 1517, martin luther wrote in a letter to archbishop albert of mainz: you must graciously forgive that i, that scum of the earth, am so bold as to dare to address a letter to you.. yes, i know, you think of me as scum, just like mainz believed of luther, wondering how i dare write you a letter, someone jehovahs witnesses disfellowshipped back in 2002. i was accused of being an unrepentant sinner and condemned for causing divisions, then labeled apostate because i spoke out publicly on nbcs dateline tv program aboutthe child sexual abuse policies that protected pedophiles policies that you helped formulate.

Love you Barbara Aderson for all your efforts and good work, but I have to agree, this is casting pearls before swine.

I think that Hugh Hefner has been ordained as a 'lay' minister.

They sure as hell are Ordained Ministers. But the question is... so what?
As a former native of Modesto, California there was more than one occasion to have morning coffee at a table of local business men that included the "Reverend" Kirby Hensley, founder of the Universal Life Church who made quite a splash with his Certificate of Ordination that made anybody an ordained minister. They even did a piece on "60 minutes" with a Mike Wallace interview. People could send in their application and receive an official certificate declaring them ordained ministers of the ULC. The controversy involved some tax exemptions, etc.
Ordained Minister (Christianity)
In Christianchurches, a minister is someone who is authorized by a church or religious organization to perform functions such as teaching of beliefs; leading services such as weddings, baptisms or funerals; or otherwise providing spiritual guidance to the community.

Rick Fearon should apologise for accusing faders of being cowards
by cedars ini hate doing this type of thread.
none of us are perfect, least of all myself, and i would rather focus any criticism on the watch tower society for damaging people's lives.
however, in the short period since i've been a member of this forum i've noticed one member in particular deteriorate in his behaviour into the type of individual who threatens to undermine the credibility of the entire website.

I have no informed opinion about this RF fellow. (But he sounds like a very polarizing character in the XJW realm)
But I know that anyone who criticises the method various individuals use to get their minds free of the WTB&TS are being very narrow minded. Clean Breakers, Fast Faders, Slow Faders, or simply those who lay low and go with the program for their own reasons, they deserve respect and empathy.
