Phizzy - LOL!
Whoever is leaking those documents must be an amazing actor. Obviously, nobody suspects him.
it seems that all the 'secret' letters to elders and even the 'flock' book find themselves on satan's internet.
they become fodder for we 'mentally disease apostates'(tm) to analyse, review and destroy.. eg.
i even had the 'skin the flock'(tm) book before the elders in my old congregation.. are the gb/lawyers/paedophile protectors/whoever aware?

the announcement was something like "[name] got checked".well if he ain't got df'ed then what does this mean?is it based on the bible?where does this policy come from?how is the rest of the congregation supposed to behave to that person in a situation like this?what happened in the background anyway?is he checked for a period of time or what?any restrictions?.
Checked?

I clicked the button next to their names and left a comment. Is that it?

sophia takes center stage on this one.. .
cedars.
So, all the kids at the KH will compete to be the first to memorize the song, and they'll all carry it around in their heads for the rest of their lives.
Very clever, WTS!
i have had some great conversations with friends and family lately who are still in the organization.. when i explain my feelings and beliefs, and discuss a number of the scandals surrouding the wt, they agree with me 100% - even expressing some things i didn't expect them to say as far as doctrine and teachings.
in other words, they can see the obvious problems and want them to change.
all of them little trust in the leadership, and have expressed disgust with several elders in the congregations they attend.
I probably would have clung to that "wait on Jehovah" attitude and stuck it out but then I found out about the pedophilia. That was it for me.
My ex-husband agreed with all of my grievances and acknowledged that the pedophilia was inexcusable, but he was certain that there would be a cleansing. Still is, apparently.
badges are coming to distinguish real christian effort!
1. badges: i want my badge to be different from the other brothers and sisters badges coming!
the society has realized they can't live without us and now they are giving us a little something extra ,it's going to be a blast!
I think sashes or special hats might be better.
someone sent me a link to the anoninsurrection youtube page.
i found eleven videos documenting an interview with the legal advisor for the former menlo park kingdom hall elders.
you can find them here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=plszmu_qv0dgtco2wl5bnjdx12ny2_cmoo .. i've also published the entire set of eleven along with my comments on ex-jw.com.
I was shocked by those videos.
Honestly, I don't doubt that the WT would do all of those things to protect itself. They haven't been that way from the beginning. I suspect it's been a gradual descent into corruption.
It's probably a matter of protecting Jehovah's Organization - you'll lay down your life for it, so it's no big deal to do a little surveillance of a "dangerous apostate" for the brothers.
I watched an interesting program about two Scientologists who rose to a high level in that organization but decided to leave. They suffered a lot of similar harassment - obvious tails, for example.
My ex-husband was a Bethelite back in the early-mid 1970s, and I remember him telling me that the place was run more like a corporation than a religious organization. They disregarded scriptural principles left and right, most notably brotherly love. It's easy to see how easily they could get from there to the point they are now.
The Governing Body have fallen out of "the truth."
my kids were good yesterday, so i promised them that i would get them dunking donuts in the morning on the way to dropping them off to school...... on the highway, there is a gas station convenience store with a corner dunkin donuts.............. they usually have everything there.. well my kids could not have their donuts, or muffins, or croissants............... they were not delivered i guess.. so, i left.. i went to another dunkin donuts 3 miles away............. and the same problem.. the other dunkin donuts was a dedicated dunkin only place!!!.
there's no baking in the place anymore!!!!.
what are we coming to!.
Krispy Kremes are only good when they're hot and fresh.
My local Dunkin has a kitchen in the back, but maybe that's only for their sandwiches. Whatever happened to Fred? "Time to make the donuts!"

attend the memorial this year..
Can't go. Don't own a dress.
Or - since I'm 1000 miles away from any JW who knows me, I could attend at the local KH wearing my jeans so they'll all think I'm just a harmless newly interested one.
Then I'll pull out my worn deluxe NWT that has my name embossed on the cover, look up all the scriptures as fast as they do, partake of the emblems, and freak 'em all out. That might prove to be quite amusing for me.
