  Series Of Tragedies Continues Among Jehovah's Witnesses In Washington State

  by qua in

  2. child-abuse

  do these things including the sending of convicted pedophiles door-to-door upset you too?

  then why not make contribution checks payable to silentlambs at silentlambs, po box 311, calvert city, ky 42029.

  imagine, for every revealing article that hits the paper there may be ninety-nine that stay untold.

  The public needs to be made aware that these criminals are knocking on their doors, Bibles in hand, posing as ministers of God.

  life after the wtbts

  by Hortensia in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  you can't move forward to a new, more interesting, possibly much happier life, if you're still looking behind at the former life.. there is so much obsession on here about what the wtbts is doing, and discussing all the forms of injustice and bullshit in the wtbts, or how to bring down the wtbts.

  yes, their doctrines are crazy and they are a cult and cruel to boot.

  move on.

  my husband just won the city wide holiday light display for christmas i am so proud .

  just a few short years ago i was the one that put a strand of white lights around the porch railing ,and a couple of lighted deer in the yard ....that brought the elders around real quick (after three years of silence ) at that time my husband was still holding onto the notion his faith was not bond to a cult .

  it didn't take long after the 'loving sheparding call' for him to see things in another light.

  Welcome to JWN. We have all been where you are now. Use the search feature on the upper left side of the JWN screen and search on different topics. Go to www.jwfacts.com and spend the day there.

  Ponce you are convinced the JWs are NOT the true religion, go to YOUTUBE and type on atheist humor. Spend a delightful afternoon watching as many videos as you can. Julia Sweeny has a great one too. Problems and questions are all solved (for me at least)! It wasn't easy giving up God, but it solves the mystery of why god's ways are so mysterious...he doesn't exist!

  Just quit quietly - the law is on your side!

  by Ajax in

  freedon of religion guarantees any individual the legal right to abandon any religion at any time for any reason.. if you are a citizen of a country which champions human rights, then your government doesn t care what religion you join, but they will uphold your freedom to join it, without interference, coercion or persecution.

  your countries human rights legislation will conversely uphold your rights when it comes time to abandon any religion you so choose.

  those (elders) who incite others interfere, coerce or persecute those who have left will be in transgression of the human rights statutes.. a person is only obligated to ecclesiastic law if he exposes himself to it or transgressed it while still a member of a religious community.. when your time comes to abandon the jw-wt cult, do it while still in good standing, be proactive - be decisive -put it in writing!..and do it before the hounders set sights on you.. write a card or letter with as much or as little explanation as you one day might wish to share with pharisees and lawyers.. take this card to a notary public to have your signature witnessed and have the writing overstamped in several places with the date.

  How to capitalise on recent unwise appointment with my wife.

  by disposable hero of hypocrisy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a brother was appointed recently in the cong, he's got a dodgy history, doesn't really have the respect of many in the cong.

  it's surprising to me, but i don't really care, good for him.

  my wife, on the other hand, is angry!

  I would say that you know of much worse men who were appointed than this guy...then act like the details are too horrible to tell her and that you could get in trouble for telling her...sneaky.

  If pressed, just tell her about some of the stories you've read here and say you can't mention names or it would be gossiping.

  2. child-abuse

  just learned today direct from my beloved daughter that she has been abused between 5 and 12 years old by 2 brothers (her own cousins) and 1 family "friend".

  she has attempted suicide a few days ago.

  luckily she is living and she is not physically injured.

  So sorry for the horrifying situation. We need to find a way of thoroughly exposing the Watchtower Society to the world for the hellhole it really is.

  I hope your girl winot find a way to heal.

  hello one and all.. the local jws had a booth set up at my university today and something just came over me.

  i went to a computer, found a list of failed prophecies, printed and stapled it, and walked over to the middle aged woman and the 10-ish years old girl.

  the woman said "if you are interested in anything, take it for free.

  how do you prove that witnesses are indeed, false prophets?.

  Did not Anthony Morris III, current governing body member state in the US Branch/Zone meeting just this month, that if you have a problem with anything he says you should take it up with God???

  Pompous Ass personified!!!
