  Hello everyone,

  what an excellent, logical scriptural and...very powerfull letter from Joe Anderson.

  I do agree with the many comments about it and I do agree entirely with Amazing's

  words:

  " Brother Anderson has integrity and courage ... something all to often missing among JW Elders ... it is a serious loss to the Society when good men like him resign ... "

  The WBTS Inc. should be ashamed..!

  All the best to Joe and Barbara Anderson and Bill Bowen.

  Although far I 'm , together with many others, near to you in these

  proving moments, greetings James Charles MacHislopp.

  P.S. The point about Paul to the Corinthinas...just brilliant

  and very clear!

  Are the disassociated NOT to be shunned now?

  by comment in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  rado vleugel pointed out on another thread that the current response to "do you shun former members?

  " on the jw-media.org site represents a more hardline viewpoint as far as treatment of disfellowshipped family members.

  once it said, "disfellowshipping does not sever family ties.

  Hello Plum,

  a nice and intersting research on the Wt article.

  Many good points to keep in mind.

  Tex: good comment. Remember within a few decades

  the elders , were ***promoted *** from elders to :

  "glorious ones " which the Bible refers only to the

  'anointed elders' in the apostles' time.

  Prayers of non-JWs are not heard!

  by ozziepost in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  no, that's not what i think, but it is what the watchtower teaches!

  see page 27 of the july 15 issue, where it states: a christian sister may on occasion be accompanied on a bible study by an unbaptized male kingdom publisher.

  if she wishes, she may ask him to conduct the study.

  Helklo Ozziepost,

  excellent comments from you and all the others.

  Just ...onother man made rule.

  Another point: few lines further down on the same

  watchtower it is written (about a young baptized son)

  the following: " She may feel that he is not yet sufficiently

  capable and may choose to offer prayer herself."

  Now, the WBTS Inc., did write sometime ago that

  only baptized members have: "...unlimited acced to Jehovah

  through the prayer...".

  So capable of making a life dedication to Jehovah God,

  but "...not yet sufficiently capable..." to pray to Him???

  Greetings to you all,

  J.C.MacHislopp

  from jw's letter to betsan powys of panorama (available at www.watchtower.org under "media"),on the policy of jw's handling of child abuse allegations:.

  "in addition to making a report to the branch office of jehovah's witnesses, the elders may be required by law to report even uncorroborated or unsubstantiated allegations to the authorities.

  if so, we expect the elders to comply.

  WTBS Inc. articles on child abuse. Your comments are correct.

  I'll keep the information , posted on your previous thread on file

  admitt the various serious mistakes of the Society.

  Hello ItsJustlittleoldme,

  thanks for the excellent comments and piece of research,

  concerning the "Child Protection Act ".

  Only those who are blind, will allow themeselves

  to be deceived in this vital matter, from the varios

  WTBS Inc. Public Relations officers, the official letter

  to the BBC Panorama and similar things.

  They should not refuse to open their eyes to the great

  mass of evidence, presented all other the world, concerning

  the WTBS Inc. policy, concerning the abuse of children and

  their 'suggested ' dealing with the abusers. 

  Our total support has to go to the victims, to their

  innocent relatives, and to all others like Bill, Barbara

  that are trying so hard to bring these things to the open.

  Many friends in various part of Europe are following this

  very closely and all this thanks to Dateline and BBC Panorama

  programms. I do hope that in all things the TRUTH and the

  all who are taking its side will pull through VICTORIOUS

  unmasking all the evil behind it.

  Greetings, J.C.MacHislopp

  P.S. dungbeetle: thanks for your valid comments.

  What is the latest on Michael Jackson?

  by Athanasius in

  2. friends

  with all that is happening in the watch tower these days, its surpising that michael jackson hasn't spoken out.

  after all at one time he was the most famous jehovah's witness who ever lived.. .

  Hello Atnanasius,

  the last time He was heard on the news it was about a court case!

  The 'child ' in question was 11/12 years old. MJ settled the case with

  a 'friendly settlement ' for quite a huge amont of dollars...millions of theml!

  I do believe it was again another case of 'hush' money' where the party

  involved could not talk about the settlement.

  It sound ...quite a familiar setting..!

  Disfellowshiping: The WTS Tightens Its Control

  by Rado Vleugel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in this article i show that the watchtower leadership has hardened its standpoint on disfellowshipping.

  they turned their standpoint from "disfellowshipping does not sever family ties" towards "quit mixing with them".

  the evidence can be seen if you compare the statements on the jw-media.org website in the beliefs-frequently asked questions section before july 2002 and the hardened statement in july 2002. screenshots of both statements are displayed on watchtower information service.. .
