Preaching the "good news"

by truth doubter in

just wondering.

what do those who left wt, and still believe the bible, feel about matt.24:14?

Truth doubter, that 's a very good Q. i shall have to give it some thought? i suppose you would have to ask the Q what interpretation of good news did you think you were preaching when you were in. For some it was about getting them to the hall & hours. For me it was just letting people know that all the suffering would come to an end 7 the ones that enjoyed the suffering of others would come to an end also. I never had a problem with that personally (still don't, pedos deserve to die). I guess as silly as it sounds to others their is a part of me that hopes it is true. Helps me to cope with cruel things that happen around the world.

Stuckin, actions speak louder, my sentiments exactly.

Something that may have been overlooked by the Australian Royal Commission

by Listener in

i was reading a post made by a female jw on another forum that was answering a question regarding under age baptism and underage girls speaking to elders regarding sexual matters.

her answer was sickening and it got me wondering whether the rc has overlooked a very serious problem.this is a link to her commentshttp://en.allexperts.com/q/jehovah-s-witness-1617/2015/8/baptism-1919.htmdid the rc ask for a list of victims or underage persons who had been subjected to a judicial committee?given that there is a practice of baptising children and young teenagers, i don't doubt that a number of them would have been subjected to their own jc in regards to sexual issues.

we have even heard of cases where young females have been raped but have been found guilty of fornication after a jc.the only files given to the rc was those of perpetrators.the watchtower would have kept records of underage persons who have been subject to a jc in relation to sexual matters.

Stuckin, my husband isn't a witness so he has a different mind set. That's the biggest reason they are being so careful with me now. He is the nicest guy you could ever wish to meet, these bastards have pushed all his wrong buttons. Yesterday we were doing the garden he told me in no uncertain terms if they come down the path i'm to go in & shut the door, he would be dealing with them. He wont put up with no shit from them.

If a child is subjected to watching porn the brain is psychologically traumatized in such a way that it is as if the child were being literally abused, so if that is the case then i would say it stands to reason that a child or even a young adult is being subjected to a JC & being forced/coerced to give explicit details of a sexual nature that could lead to there being ostracized from friends & family then yes it is psychological sexual abuse. What is also shocking is that a large number of elders actually believe it is their RIGHT to know these details. Their RIGHT. Now just where did they get that idea from. Certainly not the bible. When i was in my late 20's & went to my JC about reinstatement my husband, bless him just would not allow me to be on my own with 3 men. When our daughter went to her JC my husband went with her, when she was asked overly personal details that made her uncomfortable she told them "it's not your business to ask me that." As far as i'm concerned they still went over the line, thank God hubby wasn't in the same room (which was our daughters choice) he would have punched them on the bloody nose. The Borg takes the right's of the parents away, & to many of them allow it. Yes i think maybe the ARC has thought of these things, but i also think that they have so many people who are JW's contacting them now with issues that it will take years to get through all the info. Lets be honest, on this issue the GB have made the pope look like a saint.

wow

What I want to know is where are the parents of these young ones? What sort of a parent allows their kid to get baptized that young anyway? A cult that gives already abusive parents permission to abuse some more.

The Bastards.

I feel pretty, Oh so pretty, I feel pretty & witty & gay & I pity any girl who isn't me today.

I feel charming, Oh so charming, It's alarming how charming I feel, & so pretty that I hardly can believe I'm real.

See that pretty girl in that mirror there, Who can that attractive girl be?

Such a pretty face, such a pretty dress, such a pretty smile, such a pretty me.

I feel stunning & entrancing, Feel like running & dancing for joy.

For I'm loved by a pretty wonderful boy.

Question: refuse, or limit to collaborate with elder inquiry?

by prologos in

should a teen, a child of a believing mother, cooperate in the fact-gathering of the elders into the waywardness (not sex related, hopefully) of some local teenagers?

what scenarios can you see playing out?

all teens to clam up?

Sabin

I think it depends on the situation, the parents & the elder in question. there are still some elders out there who are probably good men & only desire to help. Yep, most are ares holes i grant you, but how many ex elders do we have on the forum & i'm willing to bet some of them really had a care what happened to the young ones. Kept things confidential. As a parent though the main responsibility should fall on your shoulders. When it comes to grassing others up, most teens clam up, cause their lives are made miserable.

Feeling A Bit Down Today

by jacobm in

hey y'all, .

i'm not sure about you, but i occasionally get those days where i feel a bit down, as if i have no friends.

i do have a number of great friends, though, and am very thankful for them.. i think it might have to do with the residual programming of having a "worldwide brotherhood".

Sabin

Big Hug. Yes i have those days also. I think sometimes we imagine that we are missing out on something, that the jdubs are all in their gang having fun when we are alone. The truth is they are not, they in general are miserable & blame the world for all their problems. If you listen to them for 5 mins can you pick up that they are trying to convince themselves that they are happy more than anyone else.

jw family loves to ask df'd ones for money!

by Ghiagirl in

well it finally happened!

we have been waiting about a year for this, my dfd husbands family asked us for money.

even though his own father hasn't met our 8 month old son.

Sabin

I agree with every one else here, how dare they. You have a son that they haven't even seen, shame on them. Tell them to go f...k themselves, change your number & shun them. The Bastards.
