Sadie, nice to have you on-board!
Whats hard to believe? The Watchtower is a peranoid, controling, money making, tax free, corporation, looking out for its own interests!
If you are a si-fi fan, you know why we refer to them as the "Borg".
i've been lurking here for some time and decided to take the plunge and jump in.
i was a witness for 16 years, baptized in 1981 when i was in my early 20's.
brought husband, mother and kids in.

eu has noticed that a number of persons making up this forum are guilty of showing disrespect to jehovah's witnesses.
some refer to jws as 'hovahs and others talk about kingdumb hells, all the time professing to follow christ.. some may justify their rude behavior by saying that jws themselves can be rude.
even if the charge is true, and eu is not really convinced that it is, why cannot ex-jws rise above the fray?
If someone called the Rev. Jim Jones a murderer, jerk, or whatever, would you get offended?
David Koresh, is what, a prophet of God?
The Watchtower is responsible for far more misery & death than the above examples & they are still at it!
Besides, fact are facts,a dub is for "W", going to a Kingdumb Hall will not make one intelligent, & the Borg is a very accurate description of the pernoid, all-controling, society!
GET WITH IT!
well, as i've mentioned before, even though i am an ex-jw at heart, i am still forced to go to meetings and occasionally in field service due to my circumstances (live at home with parents).
my time out in field service is pretty low, as i only spend like an hour a month out just to keep my family off my back, and that hour is usually one hour of rv with some poineers, so i can't remember the last time i actually really went out, or spoke to anyone at the door .
i guess out of "spiritual" concern, by uncle sent me the following article a couple of weeks ago:.
A publishing company, tax free, with free labor, gotta give it to them, its a good SCAM!
how about if we all plan a "peaceful" rally in front of the wts?.
we could have on posters the names (maybe pictures) of the jw' & df-jw's who are pedophiles.
the ones that have been df.. in addition the names of all of their victims, that we personally know.. how about having the victims present with pictures of the age when they were molested.. changes need to be done if at least a thousand of us show up!
Lets make blow-ups of that horrible Awake with the dead-lambs on the cover!
now, what will follow is a post from a 15 yo kid on silentlambs.
you know, i rememeber feeling much like him.
i think witties are getting the impression that we think they they as people are pedos......they don't realize the corruption that we're fighting is their leadership, and their outdated prejudices.. "not much more can be said that hasn't been said already...i'm just wondering, why are you, (or anyone else who is) so hateful toward jehovah's witnesses...i beleive that you are entitled to your own oppinion, and you are free to think what you want to think.
Room, the "main problem with the JW's" is its a SCAM, pure & simple!
i just spoke on the phone to amazing (jim whitney) who is in intensive care in a chicago hospital.
on monday he had a major heart attack, had a stint put in an artery to unblock things and may have bypass surgery.
he's comfortable enough right now, but of course will have to make some big lifestyle changes.
Amazing, you are missed, get back here soon!
i mean in addition to being a pedophile paradise of course.. if you tell a country (mexico) that you are a cultural organization, don't use the bible, or sing, or pray, and you do it for money, then what are you?
i mean you hate all cultures of "the world" so you lied about being a cultural organization, you aren't a religion or you wouldn't have denied your god, your bible, and your prayers.
i guess when you consider the deals made in bulgaria, and the rapid hiding of resources and then campaigning to change the votes in france you could qualify as a political organization.
"God-less"
first lie: erica.
i dont believe erica lied about her abuse.
obviously it must be true, even mr. beliz confessed that he touched her inappropriately.
Matrix, this is just what happens when,"little men play gods",
they get their,"little wanky spanked", god I love it!..lol!
two people can behold the same situation and conclude totally different things from their observations.
the pharisees saw jesus performing miracles and thought that he was empowered by beelzebub.
others watched the same thaumaturgic wonders and praised jesus as the son of god.
What does your post have to do with "Institutionalized cover-up".
Or could it be that the TAX-FREE Publishing company, aka (The Watchtower Bible & Track Society) wants to continue perpetuating the false impression that, "Jehovaha's people are a happy people", like most money making corporations?
Whats next?....... Shunning, unpatriotioc self-serving behavior, DEAD lambs (blood lunacy) & all kinds of UNCLEANESS!
I can't wait!
i received the following e-mail from steven hassan.
it seems that he landed on the cutting floor at dateline.
devon .
Grunt, do you forget "slimeballs"?
