If proven true... he better rot in jail. Hell, they should tie him up and starve him each day for hours. Too bad that'd be illegal.
Seriously... something has to be done about those religions that don't tolerate even the basic human rights.

Another "good" elder might be getting the axe....
by humblepotato inso our congregation is full of hardliner elders, 3 of them, who are not gentle, kind or loving.. people have either moved away or quit trying because one elder inparticular was going to drive them crazy with all his rules and nit picking and being righteous over much.
(and he is pissed that he hasn't been accepted to the school.
hmmm, i wonder why!).

Good for you. Your daughter will probably see right through them as long as she keeps contact with you.

Extreme rules on Dating – is this for all congregations?
by Bonnie_Clyde injust found out that in the congregation we used to attend there are two young brothers, both are sons of elders and recently engaged to girls in neighboring congregations.
instructions are that they may not sit together at assemblies or meetings.
but get this….they can’t even ride in the same car even if their parents are also in the car.

Never knew dating couples couldn't sit together... I was once asked that question by one teacher, and I answered that couples can be together at meetings. That's how it is in the congregations I've attended in Canada. Apparently, some congregations are sick as hell, though...

zeb, you have already told us of this quote. However, when asked to provide a source for this quote, such as where you found it, you have not answered. Would you be able to tell us now where exactly can this statement be found?
Thanks in advance.

Millions now living will never die (orginally "may" never die) was the WTS lying
by blondie inthis was first said in 1918 and adjusted to "will never die" in 1920. of course, the wts taught that the anointed had to die to go to heaven; but there was no great crowd teaching then, so they were talking about all non-anointed people on earth.
the wts members were known as bible students then and had been expecting the end in 1914 and it was adjusted.
one date that was stressed at that time was 1925. so i think they idea was that people living in 1918 would be alive to see the end in 1925, which of course did not happen.
