no telling what could be discovered.. we're tempted to try and do some digging ourself and see what turns up.. it's almost a given that the u.s.government keeps and has kept their eye on this very dangerous and destructive kult and doing so from many different angles and perspectives.. here's the site to get started:.

Well, it's about time!! I mean scanning court cases is one thing, but we really need hard core information on finanicials, property, etc.
Most of this stuff is public record somewhere. I would love to browse through the Brooklyn Heights Municipal records.

Most Hypocritical Act Witnessed As A JW
by goo inwhat was the most hypocritical act you personally witnessed during your incarceration as a jw?.
hypocritical acts you witnessed being performed by those claiming to be of the anointed are most especially welcome to be posted.. the person who posts the most hypocritical act will receive the complete box set of the bethel family sing the kingdom melodies vols 1 - 10 complete as first prize.. the runner up will receive two box sets.. i'll start off.. the most hypocritical thing i ever witnessed was the (married) co who ran off with the (single) special pioneer immediately after giving a talk at the district convention on "jehovahs gift of marriage".. sister special had the suitcases packed and the motor running out in the parking lot (located directly behind the platform) as co spiritual giant wrapped up his talk.
he finishes the talk then leaves the platform for the getaway car to a tumultuos round of applause from the massive crowd.. both last sighted somewhere slightly up ahead of a fading into the distance cloud of dust.. goo

I understand and you are correct, there are much worse types of child abuse and I didn't mean to belittle them. I was speaking in hyperbole about the abuse suffered at the hands of the Society.
Even so, there is worse abuses within the organization then just brainwashing and deprivation. Otherwise there would be no need for www.silentlambs.org.

We are Jehovahs Witnesses.........
by JW72 ini used to like some of the 'kingdom melodies'.
personal favorites were.. 'move ahead, move ahead to maturity...'.
'little gifts from god our children are'-shame they don't get any.. 'life without end at last'-everlasting life with them could wait!!!!.

Jan, Like it or not, u can't get those bastard tunes out of your head when they're in there.
Well, that's what brainwashing will do to you. Drums that stuff right in there. Just think what studying the same books over and over and over and over and over and ..... did.

Child abuse at the worst kind.
I remember trying to explain why I couldn't hang out with a worldly friend after school. Trying to explain worldly associations. He turned and looked at me and said "you're worse the I am".

Sex In The Sect - Vicky J.
by unclebruce inat all costs vicki's mother wanted to hold onto the myth of a man with sober habits with one wife and obedient children.
..... it seemed pointless to direct her attention to what was going on under her very nose.
dad hid copious quantities of cheap wine in containers scattered throughout garden sheds, under car seats, in long grass behind the out door dunny or anywhere that presented itself.

Nobody here put the thermometer on a lightbulb every week to simulate a fever??
My mother put my in a tub packed with ice one time because it was 107!!
I asked her recently why she never caught on to the fact that I hated going to the hall because I tried that trick almost every other Tuesday!!
or the old pour a can of vegetable soup in the toilet to simulate throwing up?

Swift to forget.....
by eyes_opened in"he who is swift to believe is swift to forget.
" - rabbi abraham joshua heschel, polish-born scholar (1907-1972).
guess this holds true to the history of jehovahs witnesses and their failed prohesies and the willingness of so many to forget about it.. .

I have to agree. I haven't picked up a Watchtower with any kind of regularity for years except to read 2 sentences and throw up at the dribble.
However, after reading your reviews I am inclined to start a subscription myself. Besides, if the power goes out I can use them to start a fire or pack glasses if I ever move again.
