Ok, Ok,. Just why do they know that the other person is not a Witness? Just tell them that he or she goes to a different congregation and get married by a judge. Unless of course the person looks weird such as wearing a beard or piercings, in which case you shouldn't be getting married to that one.

Perfect response
by Cerise ini was hoping to get some advice on what to say to a parent who wouldn’t support you to get married to a “worldy person”.
always bringing up “marry only in the lord” even when that hasnt worked out for the parent, twice divorced lol.
is there a way to discredit that scripture or argue back respectfully without giving away that you are pimo?.

the jehovah’s witness (or watchtower bible and tract society) have made the followingpredictions which appear in their own literature:.
1. that jesus would return by 1874. when jesus failed to appear, the witnesses claimedthat it was an unseen, spiritual return.

They have made no false prophesies as they are not prophets and studying the Bible and calculating dates is not prophesying.
And just because one or a few teachers did that in the past does not make it right to label JWs as having made false predictions.
So yes, when JWs come to your door, they have the truth. Because truth is not about having all the understandings about the future.

Smiddy,
You are taking away the responsibility of the person and the family for handling the situation, and making it all about the elders and the organization. What people should do is to forget the elders at all. Handle it how they should handle it. What the organization or elders do or don't do is not allowing anyone to be abused.

"possibly they knew of the alleged offenders prior behavior and concealed it."
And what would this have to do with being responsible for abuse? People need to be careful and protect themselves regardless. Blaming them takes that responsibility off of the individuals.
" the governing body of JWs that set up the policies of the religion, including the two witness rule that regularly allows many sex abusers around the world, stay active, because there was only one witness to the abuse."
Why was there only one witness to the abuse?
The religion, like most others, teach against child abuse. Any abuse done is because individuals go against those teachings. This two witness rule is to promote truth in accusations. Seeking that truth does not make them responsible.

"Publisher record cards and reporting hours will be going away."
If the card goes away, it will be because of privacy laws such as some countries they can't keep territory records.
If reporting hours goes away, it will be because Jesus said to give your gift in private and not to make a showy display for honors.

Why bring a lawsuit against the Watchtower Society? They are not responsible for child abuse.

They speak out at every meeting and assembly that people should read and study and follow the Bible. Doing so will eliminate bad conduct. -

Why isn't this forum friends with Cedars, aka Lloyd Evans, aka jwsurvey?
Also, why has the apostate community abandoned silent lambs, aka Bill Bowen?

Anyone every heard anything about your own blood?
by Tobyjones262 ini was wondering if there was any policy from the cult about your own blood in you cut your finger and put it in your mouth out of reflex ect.
