i've recently watched the jw cartoons centered around teaching young kids the doctrines of this faith.
while i no longer practice any faith, i am well versed in this one.
i must say, these cartoons are in bad, bad taste.
I'm still waiting for the original poster to reply. As always, posts some crap and then disappears.
BTW, If you think that ending up with a bible enema is a bad thing, just think about what is inside her beloved bible, violence, genocide, rape, murders and incest, to name a few of the cute things that the bible has. Carrying the bible up your ass is nothing compared to what it contains.
i love watching the jw cart crashers on youtube and how the zombie, brain dead, we are so much better than you jdubs react.
when they do talk a little about the two witness rule they will mention the need for proof and the testimony of the poor child is just not enough to take the inquiry any further.. the reason for calling the police is immediately is that dna can be gathered from the poor victim.
this evidence is the second witness used for prosecution.
Those are great points. I wish there was more about education, prevention and protection of the children and less of proving the WT policies wrong.
the governing body mistaken belief that higher education is evil and part of satan's world and that you can't trust science when it contradicts their ancient superstitious holy book manual(bible),, shows a classic denial response of an organization's that has made a living off peoples ignorance and wt's wishful thinking calling themselves by a made up title based on an ancient parable about a slave who was faithful when his master was away.. ignorance is their stock and trade!
so what should we expect in this information age that is not just growing linearly but exponentially?
trouble for these fuddy duddies.
Good to know.

Welcome FinalFlame. Interesting reasonings, but JWs (and other bible thumping zealots) would claim that homosexual love is not really love but an abomination.
Its much easier to take a step back, look at the universe and human nature and say "Yh, there probably is no God" and just love who you love and be nice to people.
Taking the bible and watering down its gay bashing, misogynistic, slavery condoning genocidal, rape approving, infantcidal message is just pointless.
Pale empreror, thank you. I wish I had half the patience you have to deal with these preachy idiots.
Freddo: You are absolutely right when you say:
...this forum is stated as being for - it also is to discuss matters related to Jehovah's Witnesses and JW beliefs and practices and gain support in dealing with them.
If that was the case, great. But that person
This is another religious weirdo coming here with their own stupid crusades.
Last but not least, I am as part of this forum as anyone else, and I'm not going to change when/how I decided to approach some gay bashing bible asshole. She should be thankful that this is online, otherwise she would have wound up with her bible up her ass.
many people like to boast about “jehovah being loving and impartial toward all”.
there are even scriptures that say words to that effect.. however, if we look at just his actual conduct and actions , and not accept the words supposedly written by his apologetic “bible writers”, the facts tell us something else!.
firstly, he chose one special nation and race of people.
I've shared many times my interpretation of the Bible's jehovah. If a person behaved the way Jehovah does, that person would be diagnosed as paranoid schizophrenic with narcissistic personality disorder and who knows what kind of other co-morbid conditions.
Just look at the behavior of that "god", how hypocritical, stupid, violent and capricious he is.
The bible jehovah reminds me or Roger from American Dad.
i was informed by my jw father tonight that the reason i don't go to meetings is because "of a guilty conscious".
i just done an eye roll and walked away.
i just can't make this stuff up..

Interesting. That's the same reason they gave me for my depression. They wanted me to confess to something as antidepressant.
just had to share... a former friend of my wife's, has just left our house, unbeknown to us, her and her husband have been inactive for about a year and a half, they have pre teen boys too.
she reached out to my wife as she had heard that we were apostates etc and needed someone to talk to.. .
after her father dying she was in a bad place mentally and emotionally and reached out to her cong for support, apon receiving 0 she turned to the bible for comfort only in her raw emotional state to realize that jehovah was a murderous unfair god and then her wheels of rational reasoning started turning.. she questioned things and was outspoken about things and attracted elder attention... long story short she wanted to connect with a friendly ear and she splurged she's never going back, the bible is all bulls**t and it's a cult, despite not knowing most of ttatt we all shared experiences and watched her eyes boggle at (stuckinarut... the first euphoric high) the un scandal, beth sarim, ray franz, 607, arc.

Sorry for her loss. It's really heart breaking that people have to go through this type of unsavory situation to have a rude awakening.
Good that she got to see them for how they really are instead on staying in denial. She has to be in turmoil as her world is changing drastically. Great that she was able to find really decent people.

FinalFlame, you are nobody to tell who is a "sinner" or what the Bible is or isn't, or whatever some people do or say is supposed to be judged by "god" one way or another.
You mention very little about yourself, so I have a few questions:
I'm sure that in your lame attempt at proselytizing you seem to think that you are sending a message of love. How about leave gay people along, stop trying to shame them for who they are, mind your own darn business, and if you disagree with what the WT has to say, simply do so without preaching and talking about gay people being sinners?
Also, since you don't mention what your own sexual orientation is, just in case, here's a link about coming out from the Trevor Project:

You're welcome.
i remember that some years ago there was a message with information about watchtower, was owner of home depot, and sold it.. question: was this true?
can’t find any info at google.. do you know more about it?.
g..
False. They wish. Compared to the rest of the universe of religious organizations, the WT is an insignificant minuscule dot.
i've noticed in the past 10 years that the social support that used to be available in the congs, a shoulder to cry on, elders to help with family/marriage issues these seem to have been purposely withdrawn.
counsel is even heard from the platform that the elders are not there to help people with their problems.. so first in the 80s-90s they take away the congregation get to getters and social events and now they seem to be going one step further in taking away the emotional support for people too.. this will take away an aspect that i'm sure was keeping alot of people in the borg, the community support.
if that's not there and its just about meetings and ministry how many will start to get their emotional support elsewhere?.

If you ask me, that's never been there. The JWs I knew never were there for me or my family. They were constantly getting into each other's business to tell on others or to talk shit among themselves.
I know that's not the case with all JWs, but it doesn't surprise me that their quality of Christian values is diminishing. They have larger problems to deal with.
