Treatment of DFed family members. JW.org FAQ vs Nov 2014 WT
by EndofMysteries inon jw.org faq, " do jehovahs witnesses shun former members of their religion?, those who were baptized as jehovahs witnesses but no longer preach to others, perhaps even drifting away from association with fellow believers, are not shunned.....what of a man who is disfellowshipped but whose wife and children are still jehovahs witnesses?
the religious ties he had with his family change, but blood ties remain.
the marriage relationship and normal family affections and dealings continue.".

The JW pedophile community should be quite happy that at these conventions, there was no outright condemnation of pedophilia, or change in WT policy to emphasize the protection of children in the congregation.

Satan and the demons, ghosts, spirits, fortune tellers. Are they real?
by KateWild ini believe in god.
i don't believe he punishes or rewards people.
so by the same extention i don't believe any spirit beings can communicate with or influence humans.. many who do not believe in god though, have gone to fortune tellers.

I knew a fortune teller or as she prefered to be called a spritualist for 20 years before she died at the age of 96. She started when she was a young girl in a covered wagon, so did this her entire life.
When at home away from her office and with family, what she did was never spoken of, and neither did any of the family.
The truth of the matter is this: At best, they are a poor man's psycologist! Nothing more. People have problems, poor people have more problems. Many poor people don't have insurance. After a $10 or $20 visit from Madame C, and they leave feeling a bit better.
At worst, its a con for the money alone.
I drove Madame C. to her office once, she was quite old and I had to help her up the stairs to her office. To my surprise, she had a sign hanging on the wall that said, "Attend a church of your choice" and it had a picture of a church on it. I really didn't expect that.
This is how I view fortune tellers to this day, they are a poor man's psycologist.

in your notepad, make two columns, label the first 'Jesus' and the second 'Governing Body'
Everytime you hear those words make a mark and report back the total for each.

You ever notice how personalities change when CO comes around?
by dugout inisn't it sickning when normaly people in the cong don't even speak to you.
but when the co visits comes they want to shake your hand and even (cringe) hug you?
then as soon as he leaves back to normal.

Same here. I was so repulsed, that I refused to go in service the week of the CO's visit. Of course I was labeled as a brother with a BA (Bad Attidute).
The other thing that rubbed me the wrong way, was the swithcing of the meetings to different nights of the week when he came. There was no considertaion for those who happened to arrange their work scheudles so they could attend weekly meetings. Then just because the CO comes to town people would have to make special requests to employers for the convienece of the CO.

Kelle Jarka Murder trial
by truthseekeriam inis being followed daily at www.swrnn.com for those interested.. this afternoons coverage said he was an elder at the time of the murder.. i think when the story first came out no one was sure if he was or not..

Awake: All good questions. Unfortunately dead people can't talk.
I believe he killed her primaraly for the money.
They most certainly had some serious issues in light of the middle night visit by the elder just hours before the murder.
I also blam watchtower policy in that they make it very difficult to get a divorce.

Awake. The show Wednesday (Deadly Devotion) is not the topic of this OP.
Kelly was married to his wife many years before murdering her. The TV show describes a "devorsed JW....

74GB is not very much storage. Especially if you store photos or movies. Most new laptops come with 1,000GB standard.
You can buy 64GB SD cards for $30. Or an external hard drive for a few more $. Move all your personal docs and pix to the external drive or memory stick. This will keep your C: drive available for the OS. You should also see improved performance of your system.
