  Well if you are in a situation like this you go into your JC and cry that you let Jehovah down and your congregation and your spouse. All you want to do is to stay with your spouse and serve Jehovah bla bla bla. Unless you have some old axes to grind from one of the elders you should be OK. Its a joke but if this is the first offense or first one you got caught at or they know of and so there is no pattern of action and you show enough repentance you should be OK.

  Apostasy Movie

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i found it extremely accurate, and as such, not a pleasant experience.

  merely reinforced my certainty regarding the org's venomous teachings & practices.. a very well made film for non-jw's to get a good insight into the minds & attitudes of the cult and its members, but not really one i'd urge faders to go and see.

  victim returning to the scene of the crime scenario.. opinions will differ..

  My experience with a JDub pedophile

  by Sour Grapes in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  back in the early 1970's i was an elder and sat on a judicial committee that dealt with a male teenager in the congregation.

  he was inappropriately touching his sister.

  it was of course viewed as a sin, not a crime.

  Tell the truth and letting people know what the cult does is a good way to make up.

  I don't get why some point to the no tolerance for gays and subjugation of women as a JW thing.

  by blownaway in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  some churches have taken the step to allow gays, women instructing men ect.

  but its not a jw thing.

  its a bible thing.

  Some churches have taken the step to allow gays, women instructing men ect. But its not a JW thing. Its a bible thing. If you are going to believe in the bible as the word of god you have to believe that women are not to be in a position over a man, that gays are gross sinners and the bible condemns them to death. Personally I don't care what two people of the same sex get up to, its their business as long as no one is injured or you are publicly preforming sex acts. But if I were a bible believer I would have to either just ignore parts of the bible or hate Gays and Women equality with men. Thems the facts.

  Any JW who is a believer will put their fingers in their ears and go lalalallala I can not hear you. They have to have doubts on their own. I am a firm believer in you can not plant doubts if they are not already susceptible and have some questions and curiosity on their own.

  I am with the Russians on this one. Ban em. I don't give a shit if it feeds their persecution complex or not. I am not looking for some easy way of getting the cult to go main stream. Stomp them out for all I care.
