  TonusOH - “…They have since been forced to change this stance…”

  Don’t kid yourself.

  Any “changes” they’ve made are nominal…

  …nothing’s different in practice.

  Things Rutherford got wrong that Fred Franz had to clear up

  by slimboyfat in

  i was interested by the suggestion in a recent discussion that rutherford was in some way preferable to fred franz, because i’ve not come across this view before.

  it made me rethink my assumptions and try to work out why i hold the opposite view and prefer fred franz to rutherford.

  i haven’t done any additional research, so i’m only drawing on what i can remember off the top of my head, but i thought i’d list a few things where i reckon fred franz’s approach was preferable to rutherford.

  What is the Craziest Thing You Are Aware Of Someone Being Disfellowshipped For?

  by Sea Breeze in

  2. experiences

  i knew a lady who was disfellowshipped for 20 years for smoking.

  she finally went back to the kh and since they couldn't find her paperwork, (all the former elders were dead) she was allowed back in without reinstatement.

  no one even remembered her.

  it’s now official - the governing body members are called for legal deposition in a major court case against jehovah’s witnesses!

  https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/1ke6cgh/its_now_official_the_governing_body_members_are/.

  recent court documents show that members of the jehovah’s witnesses governing body — including former member tony morris — have been officially subpoenaed to give sworn testimony regarding cases of sexual abuse in new york and how the organization dealt with (or essentially hid) them.

  when member (vintage) told me that my private messages were not working, i thought a mistake was made.

  but it seems he or she are correct.

  my private message option is "not" working, so i was wondering if that could be fixed.. .

  does anyone feel the same way?

  i am not anti-video, just feeling overload.

  since the jw organization started video production there has been such a flood of it that no one can, or possibly even wants to keep up with it all: some thoughts and questions i"ve had -.
