Are we all bitter?
by LouBelle ini posted a link on fb that lead to a topic here.
i then had one of my 'friends' start having a go about how bitter everyone is here....fact he said.
(he used to be a jw elder but left a while back, not sure why he left or if he has even researched the faith since leaving) the more i tried to reason with him that actually it is a support forum, the more he lashed out that everyone here bad mouths the jw's and only attack the jw's.

Find out you you were lied to your whole life, years stolen based on that lie, family destroyed based on a lie, etc....yeah I would say there is some bitterness.
Am I a bitter person? Angry? Sad? Etc. Not at all.

Do you blame Jehovah, Yahweh, God, Jesus, etc. for the corruption of the borg?
by Fading Begins indo you hold god accountable for the corruption of the borg?
i've noticed there seems to be a bitterness, by some, that includes "god" in the equation, when discussing the borg and their policies, the governing body, elders actions, etc.
do the borg's transgressions originate with god, or does he feel the same disgust as we do?

No, the men who run the organization are evil and corrupt. God has nothing to do with it, other than the men in charge use Jehovah as a battering ram to keep the rank and file in line.

Will Tort Litigations Involving Child Molestations Cause The Governing Body To Make Sweeping Policy Changes?
by frankiespeakin inthese guys on the governing body are all old and set in their ways much like the cardinals of the catholic church, and yet they the cardinals are responding somewhat quicker than the much younger governing body in making and enforcing policy change to protect the children.. perhaps they can't learn the lesson from their long time self made enemy the clergy of christendom.. http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/religion/church_in_crisis.html.

Losing the Conti case hasn't produced any changes, they only dug their heels in deeper. No they will not be reporting to the police, the legal department will decide if the person who molested the child is a child molester (yeah I can't figure that one out either) and that child molesters CAN get their positions back. There is an October 2012 letter to the BOE that spells it all out. You can probably do a search on here and find it.

In All Honesty Would You Have NOT Given Blood To Your Child If He or She Needed it?
by minimus inas a "faithful witness", i never had to deal with this on a personal level.
i imagine the pressure must be extreme with the elders and others "supporting" you to do the right thing.. do you think you would have given blood to your family member, especially your child if you were in that situation..

When I was a kid, there was a family from my congregation, in that situation. They got a court order against them in favor of the baby. They violated the court order, took the baby out of the hospital, and smuggled her into Mexico.
It was all anyone could talk about for a long time. Other than that, I have not been in the situation, nor do I know of anyone else who was faced with that choice and what they did. I only know of the one, because it was a circus for a while. -

Most JWs who put up websites or whatever in good faith, will cave to WT pressure. They will take it down, shut up, and be quiet. I'm sure it happens a lot. The WT is a legistic bunch.
Here is another one. http://examiningthescripturesdaily.blogspot.co.uk
"don't take your brother to court" unless it's the WT taking JWs to court for distrubiting the literature, which as a publisher they are required to do...yeah it gives me a headache. -
