  What is the worst enemy of Jehovah's Witnesses? Their own literature!

  (I don't know who to credit for saying that, but I read it somewhere on the internet.)

  How funny - I love that. More than 50 years later we are still in the 'final part of the final part of the last day of the last days,' or however Lett put it.

  I can see it's the April 1, 1967 Watchtower but I can't quite make out the page number. I would like to have it for reference. Thanks Fadeaway1962!

  Edited to add: Found it! I actually have that Watchtower. The quote is on page 197, par 6.

  Arizona Republic: Bisbee man confesses he's molesting his daughter. Church tells bishop not to report abuse to authorities

  by AndersonsInfo in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  jehovah's witnesses are mentioned in this excellent article that begins by reporting on an especially awful mormon child sexual abuse case.

  the article then discusses the issue of the penitent privilege exemption which former jws working through scaars.org are trying to influence state lawmakers to eliminate.. .

  Regarding Clergy-Penitent Privilege the article says...

  Keeping confessions confidential is a key tenet of many faiths. Historians believe it originated with the seal of confession in Roman Catholic canon law, tracing it back centuries, to the origins of the Christian Church.

  Nobody claims clergy privilege more vigorously than JWs. They also claim to be no part of Christendom or of Babylon the Great. But when it comes to hiding their own sins they quickly embrace a principal that "...originated with the seal of confession in Roman Catholic canon law..."

  The Bible says "Get out of her my people," referring to the 'world empire of false religion,' (Babylon the Great). Clearly Jehovah's Witnesses haven't quite made it out yet.

  Very good!

  It was repetitious, but the more repetitious it got, the funnier it got.

  Now I understand why it never made sense to me that 1 +1 = 1.

  It's because I have an attitude problem!

  (He really knows how to hit the JW buzz words.)

  Started studying at 16, baptized at 19. (Not born in, but converted.)

  Left at 53.

  As mentioned above I waited too long, even after seeing things that didn't add up. It's no wonder that Watchtower encourages you to 'ignore your doubts.'

  I will have a look. I've seen several of his videos and I like him. His 'howdy heretics' greeting makes me laugh every time.

  How do you think this covid-19/corona virus pandemic will affect the way J.W.'s view shunning?

  by StoneWall in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we all know that the watchtower (jehovah's witnesses) say the reason for disfellowshipping is to protect the congregation from some uncleanness or threat.so they "quarantine" (shun) those they perceive can spread information that does not agree fully with their teachings/doctrines.it's almost like they want to liken it to a real disease by calling opposers "mentally diseased", "threat" etc.

  will the current state of affairs in the world regarding this pandemic strengthen their cause/argument in favor of isolating within their ranks?

  i can visualize them in the near future even having parts at the hall or assemblies pointing back to this pandemic and saying something along the lines of "brothers what do you think would happen if we would not have quarantined and stayed away from any that were infected?

  I'm not sure why on this site some of my post get treated as links and put in blue text...

  When you end a sentence with a period put a space after it before starting the next sentence. In this case you wrote 'threat dot so' and 'doctrines dot it' with no space after the dot, so they became web links, even if they lead nowhere.
