  Underage child: PIMI vs PIMO parents rights

  by psyco in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i am a pimo, inactive, parent of an underage child.

  i was wondering what rights i have in regards to avoid that my child will be baptized when still underage, not having read the entire bible and before being able to clearly evaluate all the alternatives and consequences (like it happened to me) whereas the other pimi parent has all the rights to do it.

  any experiences about children in a pimi vs pimo parents situation?

  You can't get into a legal contract unless your 18 years old.

  would show how binding it is to get baptized and the situation they are in if they are Disfellowshipping. The Baptism is under false pretenses and ridiculous demands.

  Beth Sarim- I had all the qualifications as an Elder but I have a skin condition that makes shaving not practical or healthy for me. " Sorry, can't make you an elder because of the hair on your face." Who cares about your book smarts and teaching ability.

  Bait and Switch "Bible studies"

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  mark jones, a witness for over 30 years describes what jws call bible studies offered to the public.. .

  "they (jehovah's witnesses) offer you a free home “bible” study - which turns out to be a study of a watchtower publication with the bible brought out as an afterthought to try and prop up whatever current idea the governing body are claiming is “the truth” this week.. i think it’s underhanded.. when my parents became jehovah’s witnesses and they offered people a free home “bible” study, this is what they brought to study with them:.

  what, did you think they were going to study the bible with you?.

  2. bible

  anybody else notice this?

  the have a syndicate (governing body) regional bosses (district overseers), captians (circuit overseers), and elders are their "made men" that enforce policy at street level.

  if you run your mouth too much, they wipe out your whole family (disfellowshipping).

  i thought of this today.

  when i first told a certain person i didn't believe the gb were the faithful slave, that person told me i was spiritually sick....even bought me flowers.

  i threw the vase away because i couldn't look at it without thinking how i was judged spiritually sick.

  I was and am considered "Spiritually Weak or Sick" because I'm no longer easy fooled by Watchtower 's nonsense. I Question it.

  Exercise Patience Regional Convention

  by Rattigan350 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the theme of the in person convention this year is "exercise patience".

  looking at the convention map, they are really using their assembly halls and they are using smaller civic centers or city arena.

  no more huge stadiums.. are they not expecting a great crowd?

  The Watchtower—Study Edition  |  April 2023

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  study article 19. how can we strengthen our faith in jehovah’s promise of a new world?.

  17 many servants of jehovah have applied jehovah’s counsel to “keep in expectation”​—even for decades.

  louise, for example, began serving jehovah in 1939. she says: “at that time, i thought armageddon would come before i finished high school.

  The Sunk Cost Fallacy is heavy with older JW'S. But new JW'S especially the Pimo's are cutting their losses and going Pomo.
