  Hecce you're right about the "busy body" gossip sister. There is at least one in every congregation it seems and I've seen one disband an entire body of elders in a single congregation via her gossip and take down a PO and a few elders in another congregation. She boasted about it too and had a way of writing to the headquarters as to convince them of her ideas. Some of what she told was true, but she also added some extra things about the ones she did not like. It's interesting to see that even CO's are vulnerable to these types

  Wo how informative. Thanks for posting all this info about being a CO and your experiences. It is very eye opening to see that CO's have a limited amount of power within the organization. We were taught to view them similar to saints too.

  JWorg & Scientology both have child sex abuse coverups within

  by mrmagic in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  just watched leah remini's season 2 episode 1 about the child sexual abuse within scientology and the coverups.

  the same cookie-cutter patterns as what we have with the jehovah's witnesses.

  they have mention australia and i'm wondering if the australian royal commission will one day investigate scientology.

  Cha ching thanks and you're right that it just may click. Flipper it was really sad wasn't it. Totally know where you're coming from on that and yes please watch this show if you are an activist or someone who cares about children being safe. Even the adults aren't very safe.

  now confirmed - fyi following my post yesterday here:.

  https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/6355488641908736/_post/6151316533411840.

  So sorry about her being killed :( And I see it as a slap in the face to her and her grieving family and friends to say that "Jehovah God rescues us from violence. As if to say she was not a true Jehovah's Witness or was not fully accepted by god in order to be protected or rescued.

  2. experiences

  i go to the local mcdonald's for a strong latte and raisin toast and i perched my feathers on a corner seat noticing a older european guy in a suit sitting by himself, so i move next to him and said it was warmer this chair.

  i say you on business matters mate, he says ya but seemed only interested in his news paper.

  i knew he was jw because jw assembly hall is not in a business district.

In any case, I think it's really great that Leah Remini is doing this on national television, so that people in general can become aware of these things and hopefully one day we'll see a positive change for the better. My heart goes out to the victims and survivors. Here's the link to watch in case you're interested https://rutube.ru/video/29b4084b94b755713656c0d63e0db1a3/?ref=search

  Do you feel comfortable being an apostate?

  i always found it uncomfortable to informal witness to people but trying to convince a jw to jump ship brings much more pleasure..

  I'm comfortable being me. I don't carry the label "apostate", but also don't really care if someone calls me that. Actively speaking out about the injustices within the organization feels right and good to me. It is part of my personality and I also speak out against other things and do other forms of activism, not just xjw activism.

  Having said that, I'm never really comfortable, as I'm continually pushing myself and stepping outside of my comfort zone on a weekly basis in some form or fashion. I can't stand being stagnant, day in and day out, like I was with the JW's. So now, I'm comfortably out of my comfort zone. If that makes sense :)
