Longhairgal- long those lines both my grandparents encourage us kids to get educated because no one will help you except you. My grandparents where never Jw's and never approved of their nonsense. Same with the Church of Rome. But they seem to do more for the people then the Jw's.

Jehovah's Witnesses - Where is Your Money Going?
by Sea Breeze inafter discouraging and in many instances prohibiting jw's from getting an education, like in computer graphics, film-making and design, the wt is employing these kinds of professionals and throwing vast sums of money at their new film-making adventures doubtless from all the properties they confiscated, sold that the local members paid for.

Jehovah's Witnesses and Apostates
by tfjw injehovah's witnesses basically define the term "apostate" as someone who was once a member of the "organization" (a jehovah's witness) but no longer follows the teachings, rules, regulations and practices.
the society gives their official definition in the following manner: "apostasy is abandoning or deserting the worship and service of god, actually a rebellion against jehovah god.
some apostates profess to know and serve god but reject teachings or requirements set out in his word.

I look at it this way. Does my true friends care if Watchtower says I'm an Apostate. They really don't care. Watchtower looks like a child in a school yard name calling for not getting its way. Ask your banker that you're an Apostate, he would not care, means nothing, made up by Watchtower. My whole family are Apostates and some of us are under cover, what fun is that! Especially to burn down Watchtower or to make them look like azzclowns.

The craziness of Watchtower holds no bounds, always looking for a new sucker to add to the collection. As others wake up and walk out.

Enough is enough- when I was in there was alot of favoritism. Brothers giving green handshakes to the higher ups for favors. My father was a vp for an oil company when we lived in the states and the brothers went to my father for money. My father got fed up with it and started to tell them no. Well, no more part of the 'good Ol boy' network. Same thing happened when we returned to Italy. Brothers would show up wanting money, we would say no. Would not look at our spiritual produce more of our bank ledger.

Enough is enough- what did this person do after he read all the things about him.
I was baptized pre 1985 under false pretenses and was forced in to it as a minor. Which anyone with a first year law degree can argue is very illegal and unethical to say the least. And as a minor underage to boot. There was more questions that where not allowed to ask or talk about.

The Story of the first human pair stirred questions. Then, the the Flood of Noah's Day created alot of questions that to this day no one answers.

1985 and baptism...I wish I had read this before today
by enoughisenough ini am posting a link as to being legally bound to jw rules at time of baptism.
i only did a quick skim, but what i gathered is interesting, and what it says about 1985 may be of use to some hoping to just fade and not be bothered.
in 1985, the questions were changed at baptism for legal purposes so they could have causation to defend themselves should you decide to sue for whatever reason.

Longhairgal- I was baptized at 15. Not even old enough for a legal contract. I say it's voided out.
