  What constitutes 'proof' on JWN?

  by besty in

  2. friends

  recently there have been a few threads where claims have been made alledging personal negative effects in 'real life' following internet activity on jwn and other ex-jw related sites.

  discussion then ensues, aspects of which may include 3rd parties either disputing the truth or affirming the likelihood of the claim.

  questions are asked.

  " Words are for one thing: communication."

  With Marvin they are also used to obfuscate.

  Dear ssbb,

  You are very confused right now, and probably madly in love with your fiancee. Getting married at this point is probably not a wise decision. It has more to do with you having doubts about the religion, than that you may have had some hanky-panky.

  Sort things out first. Be honest with him about your doubts. It would be unfair to him to marry him, if you are not sure you want to remain a JW. He may have doubts too, but maybe not. Honest communication is the most important key to success in any relationship. If it is not meant to be, either because you have differing views on the Watchtower or what you would like from the relationship, then end it now.

  I know that you may not do it, because you are in love. Just know that I only wish the best for both you and him.

  Marvin likes absolute proof. His "hypothetical" scenario is thinly veiled. Most people can decide things by preponderance of evidence.

  "According to 2 CFR 180.990, “preponderance of the evidence” means proof by information that, compared with information opposing it, leads to the conclusion that the fact at issue is more probably true than not.

  Preponderance of the evidence is "such evidence as, when considered and compared with that opposed to it, has more convincing force and produces in your minds belief that what is sought to be proved is more likely true than not true."[Williams v. Eau Claire Pub. Sch., 397 F.3d 441, 446 (6th Cir. Mich. 2005)]"

  Do you know if the other woman was a JW, or if your half-brother is? If not, your brother may not want you to contact them to not bring reproach on the organization. (even though you father did that himself) I wonder if he paid child support?

  7/15 WT- Insane, Far Fetched, Narcissistic "New Light " about the FDS

  by flipper in

  i know this article has been discussed, re-hashed upside down in past threads.

  but there were at least 2 points i discovered in here that i felt were pertinent and important to bring out concerning the total control and narcissistic tendencies that these wt leaders possess on the governing body, i.e.

  alleged " faithful slave " .
