  Here's an update to what has happened since I used the words, "Big News," five years ago

  by AndersonsInfo in

  http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/scandals/103353/1/the-news-is-bigger-than-dateline-bbc-cbc-etc.

  as many of you know, i made the "big news" statement when kerry louderback-wood's scholarly article about watch tower's blood misrepresentation that was published in the journal of church and state was just about to be published.

  i was excited about it because lives were at stake and weve never had such an article before to be able to use to show how the watch tower misrepresents the blood issue through its literature and people die because of it.

  i don't know if anyone else has encountered this however.

  last night while reading posts on the recent thoughts of barbara anderson my anti virus software blocked a trojan in that post.

  the software directed me to their site where it was identified as a trojan downloader.

So can anyone tell me if this is something for us to worry about, IE Johnny the bethelite.

  I know I probably am paranoid but at this point being dfd would present some tough problems. At the very least I recommend that everyone have anti virus and malware software on their computers if you are worried about being identified. I myself have redundant software running at all times.

  Your most memorable Kingdom Hall meeting disruptions!

  i remember about twenty years ago some teenagers were caught fornicating in one of the additional schools.

  the schools were downstairs, essentially separated from the rest of the kh.

  they weren't just happened upon, though.

  If you could choose one book to suggest to a JW...

  by SweetBabyCheezits in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm sure this isn't an uncommon question but i'll ask anyway.. suppose you had the chance to suggest one book, essay, article, or other writing with the goal of helping a loved one wake up... which one would it be?.

  bear in mind the goal is to subvert the programmed hair-trigger defenses that cause a complete shutdown of critical thinking.

  this automatically excludes anything that would directly place the wt society or its history in a negative light.

  I found The celestine Prophesy excellent reading. Helps one to understand that everything is energy. All around us

  Are you a fader, Df'd, DA'd, or Still In?

  by brotherdan in

  i thought this would be an interesting poll that would show everyone the backgrounds of all of us when we left, if we have.. for myself, i am not df'd, but i am attempting a fade.

  i still go to some meetings with the wife to help with kids, but that's it.

  no commenting or field service.. what about everyone else?.

  Feb. 15th WT - WT Society says DFed Ones are Lawless- Just Like Demons

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i would assume that some or a good number of us here as normal humans in this society - consider " lawless " actions to include murder , robbery, extortion, rape, child abuse, war , terrorism, etc.

  the wt society has their own definition of what's considered " lawless ".

  anything that's considered a disfellowshipping offense in the jehovah's witnesses is now considered " lawless ".

  Life is Too short: Bastards, I wonder why they don't put this type of experience in the Watchtower they know that this is te pain that it causes. Yet they stand by and know of such things , no heart at all. That is not the love that Jesus spoke of. I knew of a situation where a young man hung himself while disfellowshipped. I won't give too many details for fear I will be outed but it almost killed me.

  Something has to be done. I don't care if they shun people at kingdom hell but for familys it is wicked. stuck in

  How Many Of You "Reached Out" For Extra "Privileges"?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  whether you are a male or female, the organization was always making you try to reach out for extra privileges whether it be pioneering for a month, year or a lifetime, going to bethel, or becoming a "servant" in the hall.. did you feel compelled to "reach out" or did you want to do more for "jehovah god"?.

  Guilty as charged. Even came close to CO, what a mistake that would have been. stuck in

  Nice dream: I know exactly how your husban feels. I have the same emotions. Some days I could just tell them all to take a leap but through experience I Know that it would hurt really bad to lose contact with my family and would tear my wife apart. One day she told me she was going to speak with the elders to have them help me. I helped her to see that if she did she would be making a huge mistake. Finally with reasoning she understood what I was telling her.

  But who knows some thing like this upcoming rag article may push her over the edge. But beleive me I can lie pretty well and they would have to see me typing on my computer to prove I post here. And then if they did I would go to my deathbed suing them . I would read every law book there is and see every lawyer I could. I would flood them with frivolus lawsuits. That would keep them busy. To hell with them. stuck in

  If hindsight was 20/20, would you have done the same things given the chance to change?

  in respects to the dubs.

  what kind of things did you miss out on, accomplish?

  for me, i probably would because now i'm free and while in i met my wonderful wife (who is also free) of 18 years.

  just a thought yesterday as i was eating lunch with my 5 yr. old son.

  the restaurant had ccr's bad moon rising playing, and i thought,.

  this could be a real up temp song to sing at the hall and it even has the lyrics that speak of impending doom.
