60 years of SMURFS ...

by wozza in

jw
friends

running through kingdom halls near you!

!.

Their phobias spread to music too. I know JWs whomstill wont listen to KISS as they think the band name means “Kids In Satan’s Service”. All the other freaky small Bible following religions started that one and the WT jumped straight on the bandwagon.

Nowadays you can refute those myths by searching the Net but the JWs still stick to their old superstitions.

Mods, you might want to put a full stop (period) after the word “abuse” in the post title. Otherwise it reads like Trey is doing the abusing!

Another great article by the way. Journalism at its best.

WT Finger Pointing

by Vanderhoven7 in

do you have examples of wt style finger pointing (with 3 pointing right back).

"satans organization claims to be gods organization, and persecutes those who are actually members of gods organization.

satans organization sails under the high-sounding name of "christendom".

Religious Discrimination; now LEGAL

by lastmanstanding in

newsflash.

there are businesses that are now discriminating in their hiring practices based on the fact that you are a jw.. sure, you think i'm mad.

but it's true.. the business circles have become acutely aware of the -not even 1 year old- decision in the industrial court where a jw ratted out a fellow jw and brought disrepute to the bank where they both worked.

Am I imagining this cover or what?

by carla in

i am trying to remember a cover of a wt or awake that had a picture of a priest or maybe even the pope.

i think the issue came out in the height of the catholic sexual abuse cases and being disappointed in your religion or something like that.

i have searched this site and google images but not be using the correct key words.. the reason i am looking for it is because should it come up that jw's are being persecuted due to all the recent publicity i would like to ask a jw if the wt and the mainstream media were 'persecuting' the catholic church when they were uncovering wrongdoing in that religion or any other.

@Carla

You’re more than welcome. I too seem to recall a picture like that. I think it was in episode 2 of the “Cults & Extreme Belief” series but I don’t think it was an actual WT cover as I’ve looked through my collection of all WT & Awake covers in colour.

@Days

Interesting observation about the colour scheme. Now that you mention it...

A & E Cults-Barbara Anderson

by Joyzabel in

16 years ago dateline's report on jw's and child abuse was aired may 28, 2002, a tuesday night and tonight a&e aired on may 29, 2018, tuesday night!.

i can't help but think how barbara has tirelessly worked to expose the child abuse issue within the watchtower/jw.org and is still working to not only expose the problem but to help change the laws in the usa to help protect children.

she has a wealth of information gathered for over 20 years on how the governing body protects the pedophile and not help the victims .
