Was Russell "that" Faithful and Wise Servant?
by Sea Breeze in"from this it is clearly seen that the editor and publisher of zion's watch tower disavowed any claim to being individually, in his person, that "faithful and wise servant.
" he never did claim to be such," ("god's kingdom of a thousand years has approached," 1973, p. 346).. or this?.
"thousands of the readers of pastor russell's writings believe that he filled the office of 'that faithful and wise servant,' and that his great work was giving to the household of faith meat in due season.

Introduction
by Cerise inhello i am relatively new, reading a lot of experiences here for a while.
i’m born in and baptized but i moved away from small town to a new congregation in big city so i have a good opportunity to fade now.

Don't answer the door to any of them - period. Keep your on line persona very, very private. Do not post anything untoward, ever. Walk the other way if you see a JW you know, best to avoid them. The bottom line for the most part is this - don't give them anything to feed on, do not hang Xmas lights on your house, don't put jack-o-lanterns on your stoop, just basically fly under the radar. If you can stay under for a year or more, they will forget about you.
Best of luck - and enjoy your new found freedom!!

Are You Horrifed if Someone Goes Into a “Massage Parlor”?
by minimus inyesterday, robert kraft, the owner of the new england patriots, got busted for getting a massage and more.
they say there is another more high profile person who also got busted.. does this stuff upset you that some men have gone into a massage parlor for possibly more than a massage?

Rationalizing
by Tiana ini have been looking to see what pimi jdubs feel about the csa when they hear it.i just stumbled upon this.. " in jehovah’s witness congregations, victims, parents, or anyone else, have always been free to report allegations of child sexual abuse to the police.
the troubling reality is that many chose not to do it.
they alerted congregation elders and went no further.

In Jehovah’s Witness congregations, victims, parents, or anyone else, have always been free to report allegations of child sexual abuse to the police. The troubling reality is that many chose not to do it. They alerted congregation elders and went no further. Why? Because they thought that by so doing, they might be bringing reproach on God’s name and the Christian congregation."
Once again the inference is that the R&F made/make their own decisions to not report it to the officials. BUNK!

I agree that he is likely guilty of tax avoidance...and of being an idiot.

Let me get this straight just for my own sake here. 5 former aides either struck a plea deal or pled guilty.
George Papadopoulos, former Trump campaign foreign policy adviser = pled guilty (making false statements)
Paul Manafort, Trump’s former campaign chair = convicted on eight counts, struck a plea deal (related to past work for Ukrainian politicians)
Rick Gates, a former Trump campaign aide = plea deal (similar charges as Manafort)
Michael Flynn, Trump’s former national security adviser = pled guilty (making false statements)
Michael Cohen, Trump’s former lawyer = pled guilty (too numerous to list)
Roger Stone, Trump adviser = indicted (making false statements)
Not to mention (but I will), 13 Russian nationals and three Russian companies, Richard Pinedo, Alex van der Zwaan, Konstantin Kilimnik, 2 Russian GRU officers and Sam Patten.
But in your mind Mr.Trump is innocent of any wrong doing with the Russians? Even though he is the chief?
Seems to me if you get caught in the club house with the gang, and you are the leader of said gang - you probably are involved with the gangs goings on, no?

Electronic Frontier Foundation v Watch Tower Society
by Corney in[disclaimer: the headline is slightly misleading since the eff itself doesn't participate in the case, so read more below].
it's not a secret that during the last two years watchtower obtained nearly 40 dmca subpoenas requiring google, facebook, instagram, twitter, soundcloud, scribd, reddit and other isps to provide personal information of users that allegedly infringed the society's copyright.. since subpoena proceeding is ex parte, almost all the requests were granted.. but one of the affected users contacted, on advice of youtube's legal team, the electronic frontier foundation (eff), and the foundation found a law firm ready to represent him pro bono, namely garvey schubert barer:.
youtube's legal department emailed the user on or about july 10, 2018, five days before the subpoena's return date, stating that it would comply with the subpoena unless it received a file-stamped motion to quash "or other type of formal objection before july 20, 2018.
