  Are angels just lazy and perverted?

  by Pistoff in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  reason i ask is we have seen 2 threads this week about angels:.

  1. the angels direct judicial committees; when someone is disfellowshipped, the angels are behind it.. so i am wondering why the angels can't seem to identify the pedophiles that are in the congregation, and when a case does come to light, as they did in california over and over, they can't seem to decide that the pedophile should be kicked out?.

  do angels like child rapists?

  NEW RUMOR: WT ALLOWS BIRTHDAYS

  by J.R.R.Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've just read at a spanish forum for ex-jw that the wt has cooked a new light article series about social celebrations, including birthdays and aniversaries.

  according to a member of this forum 'in short' the wt will let witnesses to decide by 'their bible trained conscience' either they celebrate birthdays or not.

  is this rumor based in some real facts or it's just bullshit?.

  Obey the Governing Body!!!! Did you see what I saw? Are they more aggressive now than before??

  by punkofnice in

  just out of idle curiosity i typed ''obey the governing body'' into the only cdubrom i could get my paws on, 2009 and found this piece of 'mind cleansing' from wt54 9/1 pg 538. impatience leading to presumption.

  13 in recognizing the theocratic organization one must not fail to obey the advice: wait for jehovah, and keep his way.

  wait for jehovah: be strong, and let thy heart take courage; yea, wait thou for jehovah.

  2. experiences

  ive recently decided not to be a witness anymore and at the age of 28 was still so afraid to tell my parents.

  the truth is their life and knew i would hurt them.

  ive had such a battle with the elders and because my dad is an elder its even worse.
