Just laugh and make some insignificant comment to acknowledge them and go get another beer.

Vanderhoven, great summary. While reading about the Boy Scouts of America, outsiders told them that with their current policies that they were a magnet for pedophiles.

Ashley Collins, I'm not active, have not been disfellowshipped, will not disassociate. Years ago, I walked in the KH, approached two elders in a backroom doing some paperwork, simply resigned, walked out, and have never returned.
Lately, I've been working on disappearing from the internet, it can be done, it just takes a little effort. I've changed phone numbers a few times and closed all social media accounts that were in my name. I will change identity here also.

Bizarre image that puzzles me -- any tips?
by FatFreek 2005 ini am a sometimes weather buff and enjoy the various services our national weather service provides.. interestingly, a few days ago (7/26/19 at 6:20 a.m. to be exact) i was looking at our arkansas statewide weather radar image during breakfast.
on that image, something appeared bizarre so i decided to do a screen capture on my samsung tablet.. today, i am still puzzled so i decided to share it with others in the hope that someone may offer solutions to the puzzle.
just below, is that captured (and unretouched) image.

The information sighted at JWFacts is excellent. GB has dealt with pedophilia as a sin and not a crime. Can't lose members to the jail cells may bring reproach on Jw's. I say, Lock-em-up! We see where 50 years of covering up pedophilia have led them. As mentioned the cases are stacked up in a holding pattern like planes waiting for the runway to get cleared of the snow.
The Boy Scouts of America have had a problem since their inception. However, Kenneth Lannings, the FBI agent who helped develop the BSA's Youth Protection Plan, wrote that "A skilled pedophile who can get children into a situation where they must change clothing or stay with him overnight will almost always succeed in seducing them."[11]
The GB will never seek someone like Kenneth Lannings, a "worldly person" to help them solve this problem, therefore, they will continue to pay for it. I know that when my child was young and we were still active, my wife and I had a law that he/she would always have one of us go to the bathroom, no sleepovers, Period!
I went to the elder's school that JWFacts mentions where they started to instruct the elders the necessity of two witnesses, and the speaker must have said "call the legal department" 50 times. I sat there and said to myself, who is running this organization the lawyers or the GB? From the first time I heard of the two witness rule I was vocal about it not being the morally right thing to do and that they were essentially covering it up. I was counseled.

If You Criticize A Person of Color Are You A Racist?
by minimus inseriously, it’s getting to a point that you can’t make a negative comment about someone without being charged as a racist, homophobe or sexist!
if you criticize a female, you are obviously sexist.
if you criticize someone who happens to be gay, you must hate homosexuals.

And it's a mess in the workplace as people have learned to use these accusations when criticized.

Why are they still so obsessed with Dr Spock?
by purrpurr incomment in today's wt, was about dr spock, and his book "that every parent in the world read" apparently (!).
if it wasn't for the wt's obsessions with the guy i would have no idea who he was, neither i suspect would the vast majority of the congregation.
there has been a mass of parenting books written since and yet they keep harking back to this one.. do they have no idea how out of touch this makes them seem?.

In respect to which specific point that Dr. Spock had promoted that you are referencing I'm not sure, how about the many years of JWs taking their misbehaving children out to the Kingdom Hall porch and whipping them with a large wooden spoon while the neighbors could see and hear the screams of a child as they were getting the crap beat out of them. What a witness to Jehovah!

Review: 2019 Regional Convention
by neat blue dog inso here's some random highlights from the convention this year:.
in a couple of videos, they promote a very negative attitude about bettering yourself and taking career opportunities.
for instance, in one video a boy is either getting a college offer or at a job fair, i can't remember exactly, but first he imagines getting better off financially, and then he turns around and imagines losing his money and losing his nice car.

"Love Never Fails" ... Really ?
by Finkelstein in" love never fails " is the main assembly headline for this years district assemblies for the jws and what a contrived lark that is .
the jws leaders have created doctrines to which the organization's followers obeyed accordingly which have killed thousands , destroyed families and indirectly caused numerous suicides.
these men have instituted such doctrines such as refusing blood transfusions, vaccinations and organ transplants at one time, they still uphold the no blood transfusion doctrine though.
