Sometimes keeping a letter from a spiritistic relative has brought trouble. Some persons have reported gaining relief by burning letters from relatives who dabble in spiritism.
"Somtimes"? So which is it? If your getting a letter from a 'spritistic' relative do you wait until plates start flying around the room or get a fever before you throw it away?
Or does that, in my case, apply when I have sent anniversary cards that I was told were burned because jehovah doesnt approve of me? Really ? an anniversary card?
My bio parents used to send me toys and my great aunt that raised me from 4 1/2 to 12 would rip them up in front of me and call them demonic.
Can you imagine being ripped away from your parents in to the JW world wanting your parents so bad only to get a letter and toy from your mom or dad and have it destroyed in front of your face while blaming me for "satan being attracted to me." (jw great aunts words). What a total mind F@#%.
I was told my parents were satanic.And after a couple of years letters came no more. Before I left at 12 I found boxes of letters. The ones that never came. I was infuriated. And heartbroken for my parents.
I hope she( jw great aunt) enjoyed destroying her own niece my mother. I digress.

Anders Anderson- Thank you thats not the one i remember but Near the beginning it said 'brothers have had difficulty burning "demonic" things even with gasoline.' then later it says--- 84. Wood is still just wood no matter how much men may work on it. That is why a wooden image can be burned up and destroyed just like any other piece of wood. It cannot protect itself from being destroyed. And the same is true of cloth or string or mud or stone or seeds or anything else that men may use to make some object for spiritistic worship. They can all be destroyed in one way or another. If these things cannot protect themselves, they certainly cannot protect others.
So does a demonic gas infused smurf stuffed animal ,for example might not burn or have a hard time burning due to to much demonic influence? But idol used for "false worship" would burn up. Weeeeeeeeee..........
Who writes this crap?
Doesn't seem like there are magazines like this out anymore from the borg.
Snugglebunny-Another Christian woman kept a handbag given her by an aunt who was a fortune-teller. Using the handbag in the ministry, she experienced powerful thoughts of "Go home!" Bad thoughts rushed into her mind almost audibly, all of them anti-kingdom. She could not understand herself, as these negative thoughts entered her mind as if by telephone, so that she complained of "hearing herself think." Only after getting rid of the handbag did she get relief.
So much for the Holy spirit being with her in the field ministry. Im sure she counted her time as well.

AudeSapere- When she asks 'Why'?, the attendant, with snide condescension tells her: "Because we have revoked your *supposed* permission to even be here. That's why."
I felt this news segment did a very good job at reporting this protest. The type of way in which the attendant spoke to her is the same way I remembered being spoke to as a child growing up in the jwcult.
Wasanelder Once- I agree.

It had a story about some lady having her head snapped around by a demon. It was graphic and scary for a little tike that I was then.
What was the name of it? Where did it go?
When I was in trouble which was often, I was made to read it.

Is Child Abuse An Issue That You Personally Have Seen In The Organization?
by minimus inas an elder, i saw one child abuse situation involving a man who wanted to be an elder and had i believe 8 children.
he was not in our congregation when this all erupted.
he denied it and moved to another hall and unbelievably, that body of elders wanted to appoint him since they believed his entire family was lying about him.

Yes.
I think elders who don't report to the police should serve jail time as well. Some here may not like that comment but I really don't give a shit.
I can walk into a hall and pick out the molesters. Its sick.
And to think that I still have lingering cogitative dissonance at times is infuriating.
When my son was little or being around any child for that matter , In my most horrid of hells could I never imagine how someone would even go there in their mind. Much less in practice or a screw up. That's a pretty big f@#% up. Worthy of a violent death!!!
