what the heck are you guys going on about? like WT is the first religion to be tax exempt? why don't you go through the manhattan roles and let's see who owns all the churches? In fact, if you do the homework and give me the addresses, I'll look them up on that site and tell you what they were sold for. we all know that WT has been moving out of Brooklyn. So, obviously they are selling property. And they are using that money to buy the Warwick property, all the construction materials and equipment, to build out that project. they already admitted on video that the sale of all the buildings were enough to cover xx months of printing expenses (i don't remember the time frame, but it wasn't years). smh.

This isn't exclusive of JWs. There are plenty of parents who throw their kids out of the house when they get to be so stubborn they won't listen anymore. I'm so sick of hearing like this is some kind of JW thing. This is a being a stern parent thing. I'm not saying I agree with it, or would do it myself, but let's keep it real.

utah jehovah’s witnesses church forced woman to listen to audio of her rape, lawsuit says.
a woman is suing a jehovah's witnesses church in weber county after, she says, one of its instructors repeatedly raped her when she was a minor and the organization's leadership forced her to listen to an audio recording of one of the assaults.. the woman filed the lawsuit wednesday in 2nd district court, accusing the kingdom hall of jehovah's witnesses church in roy — as well as naming the alleged perpetrator, several church leaders and the watchtower bible and tract society (the religion's headquarters located in new york) — of knowingly allowing the "unfit" instructor to rise to a position of authority without warning members of his "dangerous propensities" and past sexual transgressions.. read more: http://www.sltrib.com/news/4465861-155/woman-sues-utah-jehovahs-witnesses-church.

A leader from the congregation apparently warned the girl's parents in November 2006 that the instructor — who previously attended church sessions in Ogden and Oregon — was a "bad kid" who had "engaged in inappropriate sexual behavior with a female member of the Clearfield congregation."
The girl's interactions with the instructor began in summer 2007, the lawsuit states, when she attended a movie with him.
Sounds like he'd been a longtime loser.
And FYI ... age of consent is 16 in Utah.
Now, why the heck are they playing a tape in a judicial meeting. Some elders have absolutely no common sense.

Just curious - is apostasy grounds for divorce?
by LifesNotOver ini know only adultery is supposed to be grounds for "scriptural" divorce.
i'm a wicked apostate in their eyes, but my believing husband and i still can't get a divorce that would allow him to remarry.
we currently are separated - i have left him.

LifesNotOver Apostasy isn't grounds for divorce, as you said. And more specifically, porneia is grounds, not just what most people consider adultery. Even if you were making out with a guy and started jerking him off, that would count...or if you were making out with a woman and stuck your hand down her pants and started massaging her clitoris ... both of those would be considered porneia.
