I wonder what will be going through my loyal JW sister's mind as she watches this. Of course she has nothing to do with me, but she has no problem associating with the JW family member who molested her for years. They go to the same Hall, in fact.

Midweek meeting video
by aboveusonlysky indid anybody see the service meeting video this week?.
australian sister was sexually abused as a child and thought of ending her life at 14 years old, sometime later jw's call on her father who accepts a study and eventually the whole family becomes witnesses, life gets much better as the sister immerses herself in pioneering etc, she still has some dark days but prayer along with going for walks and swimming has helped her cope with bad memories of child abuse, the new system (just around the corner) will completely fix everything......... i'm dumbfounded, the hypocrisy has literally rendered me speechless......comments anybody?.

Brothers Not Traveling With Sisters, Etc.
by HiddlesWife ini've noticed within the past 2-3 decades that brothers have not traveled to various destinations with sisters and/or families.. myself with my own 2 sisters (bio/spiritual), 3 cousins, and 4-5 friends usually travel once a year during the spring and summer months to a number of places, whether it be via bus, train or plane.
the travel groups [there are 3 which are commandeered by some older sisters and their own bio sisters, daughters, and granddaughters plus a niece or two)] which total about 30-40 persons travel regularly during these times of the year.
although there are a great amount of females on these trips, there are hardly any adult males in attendance; the only males who are seated with the group range from age 5 to 12 approximately--these young boys are 2-6 in total--and once they reach high school age, that number dwindles from 1-0!.

Most JWs, male and female, are very deficient socially. They are trapped in a very suppressive, regulated group that stunts their mental and psychological development. The org treats them like children. This leads to odd types of behavior, and what you describe is an example of this. My two cents...

I think some of you are way overreacting to that picture. Apparently you never read comic books as a kid or watched any action or sci-fi movies. I can assure you I was exposed to the Paradise book, the Live Forever book, etc. and somehow I survived. Just saying...

we stayed in a hotel and early sunday morning i went out for some starbucks.

Hated the recommended lodging list and all the stupid rules about using it. It never failed that even if you called immediately after scanning the list and jotting down some numbers and hurrying home( before the days of cell phones, of course), all the best places were already booked up.

Perfect Example of JW Dumbing Down
by thedepressedsoul injust take a look at this video.
i think arguing or debating scriptures is the most pointless thing ever.
everything at their meetings are so basic with no explanation.

Showing a video from a tablet, that's really lame. Not having your hard copy Bible with you is inexcusable. However, I don't think the sister did that bad of a job trying to talk to these guys. It's not often you encounter people door to door who aren't completely ignorant about the Bible, it's hard to be prepared for everything they might throw at you. Other than the pointless scrolling she was doing on her tablet, I think she did reasonably well. And those two came off as mansplaining, a lot, when they kept cutting her off. And their beliefs are just as whackadoodle as the JWs. I don't think she was running away as much as just realizing they were never going to agree on much, so move on. Just my impression.

The Shunning truth is now out...
by babygirl30 ini have been df'd for 9yrs as of july 31 (yay me!).
so as i have written about previously in other posts, my whole family (parents + sister) made the choice to treat me as if i do not exist, and i have accepted it.
last summer they made a blatant show of it as our family reunion, in that they would walk right by me and not say one word...prompting our extended family to question their actions.

Since I'm not actually DF'd, my JW family can act "normally" around me at family reunions, the rest of my family has no idea that they ignore me every other day of the year.

When you say "we", who exactly are you referring to? What do you mean by opening an inquiry? What exactly are you inquiring about? I'm not in the UK so if this is some kind of legal process could you elaborate on the details?

Let's Get Physical
by Funchback inrap, earth, wind and fire, 'let's get physical'.... types of music, performers and songs i wasn't allowed to listen to as a person in the jw corporation.. i remember jane, a self-appointed annointed, counseled me because i was an 11-year-old boy singing 'let's get physical' after a meeting.
i remember watching the video simply believing it was about exercise...lol!
but holy roller jane just had to try to ruin it for me, causing me to ponder, 'what else could it mean?'.
