  What's your degree of anti-JWness?

  by Landy in

  so, on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is absolutely pro-jw, 5 is neutral and 10 is youtubing nutjob apostate, where do you stand?.

  i'm probably around a 6. i have the view that jws are a nothing marginal religion.

  if i hadn't been brought up as one i doubt they would have ever entered my consciousness.. the reasons it's a 6 and not a 5 is that i have some concerns over their child baptism and safeguarding procedures, but i think it's down to them being a bit dim rather than any pro child abusing ethos.

  ...would you choose to ban the jw religion?.

  if you wouldn't ban them what, if any, changes would you force upon them?.

  The handling of child abuse allegations

  by Landy in

  there's a lot of criticism surrounding the jw's handling of chiild abuse within their ranks with a lot of it being well deserved.

  but i'm interested to know how people on here think child abuse allegations should be handled.

  there's a few scenarios below, the first couple are easy then it gets a bit more complex.

  Starting threads

  any chance of people resisting the urge to start new threads when the subject is already being discussed?.

  the prince threads are a good example.

  instead of one interesting to read thread with lots of replies you end up with forty threads with one or two replies.

  is it possible to tweak the software to allow a sensible way of quoting another user's post?.

  when you're using a tablet or phone it's almost impossible to copy and paste - especially when your fingers are as fat and clumsy as mine.. okpleasethankewe :).

  A question .....

  hi guys - new poster here.

  i was brought up a jw in the uk and stopped going not long after i was married.

  that was 20 years ago so i'm not really up to date with the current doctrinal flip flops or the new youtube obsessed gb.. came across this site while googling the name of a local elder who's just been convicted of possesion of a pc full of unpleasant pics of kids.. so, my question.
