  Does This Mean JWs No Longer Point the Finger at Child Sexual Abuse in Other Religions?

  by steve2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  those who still attend meetings will be better placed to answer this question.

  since the conti case - but likely some years before it became more widely known in ex-jw circles and beyond - there appear to have been no watchtower or awake news snippets on child sex abuse in the churches of christendom.

  also, do rank and file still talk to householders about the churches of christendom's cover-ups of such abuse?.

  Lol!

  anyone remember one of their stupid campaign tracts in the early 2000s had a picture of a catholic priest? It was also a scathing message against catholics specifically. I'd love to see JWs try that now

  What is their position on IVF?

  by voodoo lady in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for example, if a married couple had fertility issues relating to the male partner's sperm, could they use a donor?.

  is it frowned upon in a more general sense because people should be preaching rather than procreating?.

  The sin of masturbation must occur before IVF is even possible. So, husband donor or not, the answer is "no."

  should that come as a surprise from The Church of 'No?'

  No no No No NO! Jehovah's Witnesses are NOT COOL NOW!

  they obviously know it.. in the last few years, a more modern, hip, and cool image for their brand has been foisted on the public at large.. jw.org.

  (sidebar: a group of us witnesses, when i was a teen, were sternly lectured by a circuit servant about how wrong it was to refer to ourselves as jw's.want to know why?

  he said, "reducing jehovah's name to mere letters of an alphabet is blasphemy!

  I remember being called out by an old mouthy pretentious pigfuck twat in my service group that "we aren't supposed to use 'JW,' it's disrespectful." Many of the more old-timer judgemental cunty people felt that way until Big Brother changed history to say that it's "always BEEN acceptable--how dare you say otherwise?"

  Missed the Meeting

  by konceptual99 in

  2. friends

  so yesterday was a lovely day where i live and so instead of going to the meeting we went, as a family, out for the late pm/early evening to have a bbq.

  we were far more relaxed than if we had gone to the meeting.

  we spent far more time talking that if we had gone to the meeting.

  Awesome. I LOVE little victories like this. Good for you! I'm happy your family is there to experience the thrilling stages of waking up as you slowly fade.

  your kids have to ~LOVE it~ when mom & dad say "we're not going tonight." These will be their fondest memories.

  And to anyone who doesnt "agree" with YOUR way of exiting, give em a big fat sloppy "f*ck you!" It's your business how you handle it. If they wanna judge, the Kingdom Hall is open Thursday night at 7:30--they'll find like-minded asshole dipshits like themselves.

  Recording that would blow up viral!

  by aintenoughwiskey in

  i was wondering if anyone had an audio recording of a woman, preferably a minor being asked the intimate details of a fornication jc.

  that would hit the fan hard.

  OMG that would be epic. It would make the secular news. Only old-timey die-hards would change the channel in time. The majority of RF TBM JWs would eventually see enough of it to be utterly appalled.

  Hmmm... I know some slutty dub girls who could be persuaded if they ever got caught. It would have immensely more impact if the girl was a minor.

  i wonder if it would be easier to get a disgruntled mom or dad to record it. Aren't they allowed to sit in if she's under 18? Of course, that raises huge ethical questions: is it morally right to subject a girl to trauma and humiliation just to get a video? (I say YES. this shit needs to be exposed. Globally.)

  Do JW elders perform exorcisms?

  by QuestioningEverything in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  what if a person is thought to be possessed and nothing suspicious is found in their home, ie books, yard sale stuff, smurfs, etc..., will the elders perform an exorcism?

  have any of you ever heard of a person getting exorcised?.

  i am on here as another member, but even with a username and not revealing my identity, i am still too embarrassed to use it.

  had to make up a new one.

  that being said.... my boyfriend is watching pornography, and it seriously hurts my feelings.

  Schoolyard bully mentality

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i'm not naming names, but i just want to encourage people on here or on reddit or twitter, and tell you that you do not have to tolerate people who act like schoolyard bullies in the way they speak to you online.

  i think anonymity is a big part of it.

  they feel like there is zero accountability so they can be a bully all they want.. i recommend just ignoring or blocking anyone who is verbally abusive or treats you like schoolyard bullies treated you.. life is way too short to spend any time dealing with those kinds of people..

  "Would you tolerate someone being belligerent, rude, calling you names, saying you were stupid if you were having a discussion in your house?"

  
  

  Uhh, in my own house? no. But such encounters are expected online. That is an example of the fallacy of false equivalency. My home and "the internet" are 2 entirely different settings. Watchtower uses that same analogy all the time and it doesn't work. The more similar 2 things are, the stronger the analogy. My house and the entire World Wide Web couldn't be any less similar to one another.
  but none of that matters... Because if you HAVE "the truth," why let bullies bother you anyway?

  It is not an assumption. Keep doing your own research and when you arrive at the inevitable conclusion that no evidence exists for ANY branch of theology, you will find that a seat has been saved just for you at The Roundtable of Skeptics. See you when you get there. Cheers!
