  I'm Shocked The Jehovah's Witnesses Even Allow Their Kids To Go To Mainstream Schools.

  by Jehovanomics in

  2. beliefs

  judging by the material that my kid brings home on a daily basis in copius amounts.

  everything about everything in elementary school goes against the doctrines of the jehovah's witnesses.

  how do jw's expect to make any money if all of their kids are defecting the jw's?

  I see many JWs leading a rather full life at the same time being active... So did I when I was in. Visited a lot of countries, read many books, (including all the WT literature), watched TV, went to the movies...

  Abuse among JWs once again highlighted on national TV / Norway

  by InquiryMan in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  the major commercial tv network in norway, has once again highlighted abuse within religious communities.

  the only group not willing to reveal any information on abuse cases is jehovahs witnesses.

  this case is highlighted very prominently on their web site today and will most likely be on their evening news tonight (i reckon).. http://www.tv2.no/2014/12/01/nyheter/overgrep/6261340.

  This is not new. There has been a lot of negative publicity concerning esp. abuse and DF practices among JWs for decades in the Scandianvian countries, esp in Denmark and Norway, but lately Sweden has had an increase in bad JW publicity. Also in Finland there has been a lot of TV/media coverage on JWs.

  The August peak point of Norway was close to 12,000 (ca. 11,700). When i left the witnesses more than ten years ago they had about 10,500 reporting at most as far as I remember. Considering Norway is a very secular country, this number is fairly "good" seen from the witnesses point of view.

  i wasn't looking where i put my feet, and i almost took the cart out!

  anyway, i stopped and chatted with the people for a bit.

  three women and a man -- an elder and his wife.

  When visiting Dresden quite recently I also saw one of these charts. I took a photo of it, as well as grasping two magazines. To them it seemed to make their day... And see no need at all to be rude...
