  Unwritten, congregational 'rules'

  what were some of yours?

  the big one in our hall was no frontal hugs!

  these were generally thought of as inappropriate, only side hugs should be given between sisters and brothers.

  in september 2019, the branch of jehovah’s witnesses and a number of kingdom halls in são paulo brazil were raided by the police, in search of documentary evidence of criminal activities relating to child sexual abuse.

  the jehovah’s witnesses claim that the raid was unlawful.

  below is a translation of the court of justice determination.

  Thanks hopefully justice for all the victims.

  The authorities seem to be aware of how the JWs handle and try and hide child abuse and failure to report to the police etc.

  Had a school overseer who made a rule that you could not do Bible highlights unless you were doing away public talks

  Not to criticize the po or his family even justifiably you lost the privilege of items on the service meeting for a few months

  "Do you believe that the 'faithful slave' is God's channel of communication?"

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if a jw had the nerve to ask me this question, i'd say to them, "you go first.

  using only scriptural proof, show me why you believe that the wtbts/ccojw is god's choice and i'll tell you if i agree with your scriptural reasoning.".

  wait for the silence and the rabbit in the headlights moment.. i searched on the wt cd rom for references of "channel of communication.".

  I believe a FAKE Jehovah through his FAKE son Jesus and a FAKE holy spirit directs his FAKE faithless slave to provide FAKE food at the proper time .

  approval .

  as children we have a need to bond with our caregivers or parents.

  this bond leads to needing their approval.

  Thanks

  Sounds like another organisation that has documents on offenders of sexual abuse of children and failed to report and lots of money in the bank .

  Maybe they will file for bankruptcy and restructure to save paying compensation to the victims.

  A Better View of Trauma

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i ran across this short essay and thought it was worth passing along.

  trauma is not your fault, but healing is your responsibility.

  what happened to you was not your fault.. it was not something you asked for, it was not something you deserved.. what happened to you was not fair.. you were merely collateral damage on someone else’s warpath, an innocent bystander who got wrecked out of proximity.. we are all traumatized by life, some of us from egregious wrongdoings, others by unprocessed pain and sidelined emotions.

  Very true

  Recently left a abusive relationship after many years on the way to becoming a survivor and no longer a victim with the help of domestic abuse agency's .

  That also help me that I was in a abusive religion , they both use the same tactics to control all aspects of your life and slowly erode the person you are,in the process of fading from JWs ,

  This forum has been a great help in the recovery process so on the road to being a survivor of the abusive cult.

  So many thanks .

  I want to try something new, any ideas?

  by Tameria2001 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  normally when jws come to my door, i very quickly tell them i'm not interested in the jws.

  and for about a year or so they don't come until that time passes.

  well, they came by today, but this time i decided to not tell them to go away but had a nice conversation with the two that were at my door.

  The ministry school taught us to be friendly and get common ground.

  We all hate people being mistreated and abused mention about JW in Russia on the news let them agree and talk about that for a while then when appropriate mention about the child abuse law suits on the news , they will struggle to say it's apostate because they have already agreed with the news media coverage of JWs in Russia.
