  two folks from the local kh visited the house yesterday looking for my wife who is an on again off again baptized jw.

  wife was not available so they asked me to tell her about a special talk on marriage next week.

  any outlines available for this ‘special talk’ or could this potentially be a local issue?.

  Discouraging JWs From Calling

  by NotFormer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was reading an anti cult reddit post where a woman (ex mormon) was trying her hardest to discourage the mormons from visiting her and trying to convert her back.

  a few others chimed in about their various methods (coming to the door naked, pretending to be practicing black magic, etc.

  ) which they claimed would have the mormons and jws running away as fast as possible.. somehow, i doubt it.

  I’m so sorry that these things happened to you, Scully. My teachers were much more understanding. I think at least some of them knew it was my parents forcing this 💩 on me. It still bugs me that my parents signed me up to be an unbaptized publisher at 6 years old. No choice whatsoever.

  If I had young people at my door, I would offer to help them if they wished to leave!

  gossip

  i was once was told by an jw elder it was a rule not to gossip or swear as it could harm someone, but i guess the new light allows this.

  it was bad enough when they were calling people worldly now i heard a jw gossiping about someone and it was mean.just another reason i would never go back.

  Memories of Excessive Laughter

  by Sea Breeze in

  jw's are not known for laughter.

  there are the rare exceptions.

  they are more known for their fear mongering and doomsday scenarios where "the dead shall come to be as manure on the surface of the ground from one end of the earth clear to the other".

  I agree with Sea Breeze. JWs, as a group, especially the super PIMIs, are sour, serious people.

  Parliamentary question on paedophilia among JWs in Italy

  by Achille in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  (google translation).

  question to the chamber by m5s mp stefania ascari to the ministry of the interior on paedophilia among jehovah's witnesses in italy, starting from the recent case in florence, with references to the various cases that have broken out around the world.. i sense a certain creaking at the italian bethel in rome at via della bufalotta 1281, the italian branch of the watch tower bible and tract society of pennsylvania.

  will this have future implications for the italian jehovah's witnesses exponential body, the christian congregation of jehovah's witnesses and for its branch committee, which represents the interests of the governing body in our country?https://aic.camera.it/aic/scheda.html?numero=4/03795&ramo=camera&leg=19.

  Figures lie, and liars figure. I do not believe for one second that there are 9 million publishers.

  Why do most Ex jW W‘s seem to be liberal?

  by JaredScott-1977 in

  1. social
  2. current

  i’m just curious about this dynamic i don’t care personally one way or the other but i do have friends who have chosen to be conservatives and they get totally destroyed on social media pages for their choice.

  it’s almost like a lot of ex jw w become as toxic and his judgmental as jehovah’s witnesses themselves what’s up with that?

  i also know conservative ex jw’s that can do the same so again i’m not leaning one way or the other i’m just noticing factual observations.

  When I left the cult, I wanted to vote, but I wasn’t sure of where I stood on things, because we weren’t supposed to form opinions. 🤨 After pondering it, I decided I was a fiscal conservative, but a social liberal. 🤷‍♀️
