Since broadcasting most JW at least know the faces (especially bro Lett). If one turned up at regular KH ,you would see JWs do an action similar to the Jews with the golden calf. All members CLAIM to be annointed. If you believe the GB they will imply that they are chosen by God, Holy Spirit ,but in reality it's all about connections no different from mafia,it's all about who you know. GB do override all decisions that they disagree with. Lastly they only stay where THEY want to stay eg good old friends,Marriott ,Hilton,6 star hotel for our boys.

I'm Going to Break Up with My Boyfriend Today
by LaurenM inso like the title suggests, i'm going to break up with my boyfriend today.
it's for several reasons, but mostly because i'm not prepared for a relationship.
i need to grow and learn what it's like to be me now that i'm not a jw and learn how to love myself so i don't make the person i am with miserable.

Most on here can sympathise with you due is us being damaged goods to some degree, but as others said there are professionals who CAN help, also reading experiences of how others overcome their troubles does help. You have done the right thing by seeking advice on here because wisdom can come from the most unlikely sources. A true friend is someone who doesn't judge your motives because they know and care for you, hang in there. You seem the caring type ,real friends are attracted to people like that. 99% on here are cult affected ,we are here to look after each other.

Every JW family with a DF individual is in a dying state. The emotional trauma bestowed on members in and out is without worldly precedent. There have been more suicides than Jonestown. To put in print not to attend DF funeral is emotional death to some people. IF God is love then surely he has nothing to do with any of this.

The Biggest Mistake The GB Have Made In The Last 10 Years
by pale.emperor ini think the single biggest mistake the governing body have made in the last 10 years has to be creating jw broadcasting and putting their gb members on there... on a weekly basis too.. when i was a kid, i had no idea who the governing body were, what their names were or what they looked like.
there was one or two long term pioneers that knew the names of two of them but that was about it.. when i was about 10yo i imagined they looked something like this:.
ahh.... those learned men with a lifetime of bible knowledge just oozing out of their very hearts.

As soon as they broadcast, their mystic most holy persona just flew the coup. Even if these men started with good intentions once they forsook ONE soul to a bullish... judicial decision ( such as someone DF for not believing latest light) they became condemned . The young bred members now are more accountable due to KNOWING the history has been changed, for changing scripture there are plagues waiting.

How Will Armageddon Begin?
by Cold Steel inand how long will it last?
and who will come after that, yahweh, as the old testament says or jesus, as the new testament says?
the scriptures say he'll come to the mount of olives, but surely that's a spiritual mount of olives.

Canadian Appeal Court decision made the news: Judges can overturn unfair church edicts
by AndersonsInfo inhttp://news.nationalpost.com/news/religion/alberta-appeal-court-rules-judges-can-overturn-unfair-church-edicts.
the other day, this court decision was posted on jwn along with a link to the court document, but few expected the media to pick up the story.
so to all involved, i understand it was a surprise to see the story in print.

They would NEVER make disfellowshipping a conscience matter due to the family wreckage left in its past. Could you imagine you deserted your DF'd parents until they died and some didn't even attend their funerals. Anger would rise .

It's interesting that it was those with JW power that recommended for her to visit. Because deep down they KNOW that this tearing apart families has no Christian origins .These hard arse bastards occasionally get soft and little bit of Norman human empathy gets through, till their next indoctrination lesson.

Midweek meeting video
by aboveusonlysky indid anybody see the service meeting video this week?.
australian sister was sexually abused as a child and thought of ending her life at 14 years old, sometime later jw's call on her father who accepts a study and eventually the whole family becomes witnesses, life gets much better as the sister immerses herself in pioneering etc, she still has some dark days but prayer along with going for walks and swimming has helped her cope with bad memories of child abuse, the new system (just around the corner) will completely fix everything......... i'm dumbfounded, the hypocrisy has literally rendered me speechless......comments anybody?.

The biggest accomplishment from ARC for those in is ,that the elders book is freely online and available and can't be removed or copyright laws don't apply. Not to forget the most epic statement from Geoffrey "presumptuous ". Australia's best JW lawyer said he never heard of theocratic warfare. These guys are at the pinnacle of PERJURY .

Family has problems ,they approach elders ,who in turn spiel what ever is latest memo from HQ. Due to complex nature of cult affected individuals elder turn to COs for the curly problems. This is where the death of JW family takes place. Along come 28 year old CO who has NEVER had normal job, never done his own research ,never changed a nappy (diaper ), had no brothers and sister in his own family because his mum and dad weren't meant to have children.
Family are stressed because 15 year old son has masturbation problem , he is watching porn frequently ,he refuses to stop. He is caught out by zealot sister who knows his iPad passcode .The porn is kinky ,elders refer to it as BRAZEN. They have spoken to Charlie 4 times, Charlie is apathetic . Elder think we will help this boy , they invite CO . The rest is history ,sick evil child can't be helped ,his eyes have seen evil porn in its most depraved ways , CO can't understand a couple doing it doggy style. Such an evil Charlie, we must protect the floc says CO. Charlie DF'D . This is only the beginning of the death of this family.
