I'm willing to bet that those elders still think they are being persecuted and they haven't done anything wrong. That's how seriously sick these bastards are. Let their children get abused then maybe they may wake up. But I doubt it.

as in the current oakland, california case, since the congregation must vote on expenditures and pay on such rulings, is there any announcement concerning the specific case and rulings?
are the elders removed to make it look like it was their blunder.
any real info along with wild speculations would be welcome..

it took me a long time to write this....i'm being brutally honest...i am still a reg pioneer...three sundays ago,i was praying and asking god for a sign or something because i was so confused...i told him exactly what i needed to see for me to believe.i was feeling terrible--crying and feeling sick because i was so confused.ten minutes after, i walked into the kingdom hall and to my surprise--my prayer was answered!
i soooo wasn't expecting it, even though i prayed.
so this is where almighty god wants me to be,ii've reasoned.
Is msgrowing girl for real? Wake the HELL UP sister.

isn't it strange?.
with just even a hint of bad press for the god jehovah ....... all his followers race to the rescue to cover it up.
and quickly hide the evidence.
Clarity: The BORG loves to hide behind brainwashed j-dubs, instructing them how to proceed and then they try to pass the buck. We didn't do it those rank and file CULT members did. The brainless don't have a clue even about the recent court case. SAD.

i have never heard of this group but i turned on the tv and right now (eastern time) there is a show on national geographic called american colony/hutterites and they are shunning members for allowing their children to have more education than they deem neccessary as well as playing school sports.
the group also appears to think they are the only ones going to heaven.. anyone know more about this or have experience with them?
struck a chord with me..
Good lord PUFF, these two groups the Hutterites and the Jehovah's witnesses should get together and compare notes. Stupid comes in all CULTS.

is this recent?

i havent seen anyone post about it, the link has a pdf on it of the court documents, and it looks like the stamp is from 5/12 but its blurry.. .
The BORG is finally going to get some of what they deserve. I hope this sets them up for more large lawsuits. Not only do they hide Pediophiles but murderers as well. This is fantastic news and I hope the watchtower burns in HELL.

..on my head.
in some small way i think i understand one reason for shaving new recruits or prisoners.
as i did it i felt sick in my stomach and it felt like i was losing some of my personality.
Shaving your hair off is an act of brazen conduct according to the G.B. as I learned from an ex bethelite. So go ahead and be brazen, I shave my head every day and have a goatee. Be all you can be, not what the BORG wants you to be.

how many of you have felt the holy spirit being jw?
have you felt to have it after leaving?
always in my prayers i ask for holy spirit, but honestly i have never felt to have it.
I felt HOLY SPIRIT as a kid when my father took his belt off and whipped the HOLY CRAP out of me. That's the true spirit that will move you to action.

i mentioned on a recent thread by irondork that my wife recently showed me a handwritten list of grievances i had against the society from before i had ever visited a single apostate website (apart from wikipedia).

Cedars: knowledge is power in all aspects. Very thought provoking points you brought out. Like CANTLEAVE said " it's a shame j-dubs don't use their minds."

a controversial coney island principal has pulled the plug on patriotism.. her refusal to let students sing god bless the usa at their graduation has sparked fireworks at a school filled with proud immigrants.. greta hawkins, principal of ps 90, the edna cohen school, wont allow kindergartners to belt out the beloved lee greenwood ballad, also known as proud to be an american, at their moving-up ceremony.. context: middle correlation photo five classes spent months learning the patriotic song, which skyrocketed in popularity after the 9/11 attacks and the 2003 invasion of iraq.it was to be the rousing finale of their musical show at the june 20 commencement.
the kids, dressed up for their big day, would wave tiny american flags which, as the lyrics proclaim, still stand for freedom.. but hawkins marched in on a recent rehearsal and ordered a cd playing the anthem to be shut off, staffers said.. she told the teachers to drop the song from the program.. we dont want to offend other cultures, they quoted her as explaining.. the curt edict stunned both staff and parents.. a lot of people fought to move to america to live freely, so that song should be sung with a whole lot of pride, said mom luz lozada, whose son, daniel, is in kindergarten.. the song has been sung at previous school events.
last years fifth-graders, including another lozada child, performed it at graduation.. everybody applauded and whistled, the mom said.
Clarity: OMG!!! That is really scary, but so realistic. The earth would actually become HELL and our only hope would be heavenly life away from these insane bastards. We would have to take up arms to fight against such tyranny. Sobering thought that 11 year old post. Thanks for showing me that.
