he just made a joke in his monologue about the jw's having sex scandal problems in minnesota.
the punchline was......"i'm just worried people will start avoiding them.
" serena williams is one of his guests tonight.
Thanks for the link, just got to see it. I think that bringing this out in the open is a good thing, even though joking about such a horrible situation as so many are going through is crude,and not really funny. The important thing is that people that don`t have time to take in all the news are still hearing about it while they are relaxing at home. The more exposure of the wtbts the better! Thanks to David Letterman, and his writers.

Gotta go watch it, the more media attention the better. More exposure, the wtbts is starting to be seen for what it really is. I want to see if he will mention anything to her about it.

phil is somehow deluded into thinking it was "courageous" for jw kids to stand there not saluting the flag.
anyone else want to enlighten him about what it was like to be that kid?.
Oh, and I asked him if he could do a show on the wtbts` hypocracy, that would be good should it actually happen.

Okay gypsywildone, it is done. I have sent Phil a letter asking him if he realized that the religious organization that required these children to not salute the flag were they themselves involved with the UN, I also spoke of the suicide rate, and mentioned the cult word. I also let him know of the abuse coverups and media exposure that is happening right now.
Thanks for the link, I think that the more media exposure the Society gets the less power they will have over innocent people.

very few people in life will ever understand the struggle that we have endured, conquered, and go on conquering.. i've spent long hours, choosing my words carefully, and my intelligent wife, i feel, still has no clue.. we're still here.
living.
moving.
To us! Me thinks there is bad association on this thread.

it's been just a month on the 8th, since i joined this forum.
i struggled for years trying to find myself.
i'd look in the mirror and say to myself: "who are you really?".
Congratulations to you for loving yourself! It is troubling that the org robs people of their self esteem, but there is no doubt that is exactly what they do. With the "not thinking more of one`s self that is necessary" and articles about people with dementia still able to preach the kindom message. The destruction is very subtle, the gb is saying get off your lazy butts and do more. Most of their advice is damaging to ones soul and common sense.
It can be a frightening freedom when one is cut off from the org.
You have come to a good place in your life, always think of yourself first. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, it is for your own survival as an individual.
You have done well, and are to be applauded!!!
Much love to you, may you always prosper.

thanks to everyone here who welcomed me two weeks ago.
my intention when i first came to the site was to simply find information and see what others were saying about the jw organisation, then i felt inclined to post myself, including sharing my personal experiences.
Understood, do take care of yourself.

mailing campaign fallout.
recently, kingdom halls of jehovahs witnesses were the largest group of intended recipients of an international mailing campaign, spanning all fifty states of the united states and including the countries of canada and england.. the results in the us have been interesting, and could have far-reaching effects on our legal system and on the preaching practices of jehovahs witnesses.. over a hundred years ago, a group of evangelical apocryphical persons calling themselves "bible students" began a campaign to sell bible-based literature at homes throughout the united states.
from time to time, their effeorts faced legal challenges, some were won and some were lost, but in general the door-to-door campaigns have continued unabated, with varying degrees of success.

I sincerely beleive that it is another form of lockdown used by the WTBTS to keep it`s people in check. This accusation of harassement from the public is only an excuse by the society to make sure that jw`s are not contacted or informed in any way shape or form about things that may involve them personally and protect elders involved in ongoing lawsuits. It is a shame that the protection is not focused on these inoccent children, some of whom are babies. The WWCC is trying to reach the hearts of some or any of these elders in position to protect these precious lives. I`m sure everyone interested has already read the letter. My plea is to those of you also concerned about helping the WWCC with information on how to obtain the correct PO boxes for KHs that can`t be reached.. Please reply to this thread.

I can`t remember any mail receptacles at any of the KHs I attended, There was only the mail slot. It is inconceivable that an organization that is willing to go to court for the right to "preach" would not give people the opportunity to contact them. Why would they hide addresses from the public? Is it really because they wish to not be contacted? Isn`t that an extreme contradiction? We can come straight to your front door, (our legal right), but nobody has the ability to contact us, not even through the mail system. What harm could come to an organization that has an open mail system? Really!
