  hy guys the other day my wife had a discussion with her jws brother and he told her that he received all posted material from this site posted by myself and was disgusted with the information.

  now that's all fine by me but what i am pissed about is that some one in here from sydney australia is a mole and pretends to be an ex jws while all the while exposing each and every one he knows as in my case.

  you are one big coward and one who hides behind a skirt a yellow and a chicken shit whom doesn't have the balls to face me in person because you obviously know who i am.

  so after the memorial hell http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/249700/1/memorial-hell my wife totally missed the special talk and i only just realized from jwn that she has.

  in fact last sunday i took her out to a park and we had nice time in the fresh air enjoying nature.

  also she has taken up improving her congnitive skills on luminosity and today said she might actaully go and study some algebra on khan academy which i had suggested instead of spending money on luminosity.

  Self Esteem is a product of our upbringing. If she has issues with that - a social worker can help her with that. unfortunately the WTBTS keeps you in that "low self worth" position by saying we are NEVER worthy to think for ourselves. Education - good step forward, but hold back on the deep thoughts about what YOU KNOW, the time is not right Sounds like she is moving in the right direction...let her keep rolling herself forward, DONT PUSH HER

  i have an aquaintance that likes to say, "once an a hole always an a hole".

  i guess you could reason that whatever your religious views were, your core is you are who you are.. did your personality change for better or worse when you left the organization?.

  I would let the WT EVER change that.

  SBF -

  You comment - "Detlef Garbe came up with the 1,200 figure. I don't think there are centralised records on who the Nazis killed, JWs or otherwise. That's why it's impossible to be precise about the numbers killed."

  There are "Centralised records" - while very close to the number researched by the DC Holocaust Musuem - their researchers do a great job and provide much details (of which I Was not even apprised) is not far off. You may feel free to contact them to support this comment.

  However, one must be careful not to believe ALL we read in books.

  Something most people are not aware - Detlef Garbe's "TRANSLATED ENGLISH version "Between Resistance & Martydom" from 2008 varies in details and comments from the First original in German.

  That could be attributed to many reasons we will never know-

  One thing that stands out, and we know for a FACT - and makes any critical thinking person take note, is that on the page prior to the "preface pages" on page "xi" under the title - Translator's Note - the Translator, Dagmar G. Grimm - makes some astonishing claims and thank you's that make one wonder how "subjective" could this English Translation be and makes you ask why the changes occured from the original text.

  Funny, i wonder if people ask the same question of the Bible and NWT?

  I won't go any farther, but based on personal experience, I have be careful before I take for granted numbers, details and opinions of those who were not there and only relying on the interpretation of others.

  Liberties are always taken with quotes and comments, but the original thread Question stands as accurate - it's all for a manipulation -

  There was MUCH manipulation on behalf of the WTBTS with regards to how they want information viewed at the Holocaust Musuem, one has to just go there to see it.

  Come to DC and I will meet you for a cup of Tea!

  My parents were BOTH holocaust survivors, I went to DC and had an eye opening visit/talk with the head Historian, Peter Black

  THEY (Holocaust Musuem) HAVE THE RECORDS, ALL OF it - less than 1,000 JW's were killed in the Camps, it's all been blown out of proportion,
