ok......it has taken me lots of soul searching to put this post up (it contains some facts i dont really feel all that comfortable putting up).
but i will try and leave out here for as long as i can.. it is an email i have sent to my dad.
it is a followup - he has some of the info on the un already.
msil...
you brought tears to my eyes reading this...
please remember...that although many in the org are good people, there are those who arnt. and thats the reason we all fight for what we KNOW is right, and true.
you know many of the issues we discuss here.
pedophiles and the likes of them.
wolfs in sheeps skin.
thans for sharing such painfull, touching memories with us.
my thoughts, my prayers, are with you.

the watchtower, october 22, 2001, page 22, column 2, paragraph 2:.
loyaty to jehovah also includes loyalty to his organization.
necessarily, over the years there have been corrections and adjustments to our understanding of certain scriptures.
new light!
The watchtower has been sleeping with GODS enemy!
Now, turn off the light and look the other way.

we've all seen the scathing things wt has printed about the un over the years but in the last few yrs there has been a change in tone when they speak of the un at times.below i provide an example of this courtesy of dec 8,2000awake.. i made some quotes bold print.as you read notice the complimentary tone and the spots where un photos appear.those were probably obtained as a perk with their membership.. ask your self,is this any way to speak of the scarlet colored wild beast?
part of saten's org?if you can look at the magazine.it looks like a propaganda piece.. the problems of children.
the solution at last .
kent...
did i see right?
the wtbts HAS an actual email address here in the states?
i dont know why, but i thought that they had no wat to contact the "org" here in the states via email.
guess i was wrong?

following the link given by kent,.
i have several observation to make:.
(from the link : http://www.un.org/moreinfo/ngolink/brochure.htm).
mac, hawkaw and all....
i am composing my letter to the wtbts.
i will not pbulish it here, as i do not want tp tip my hand.
along with "hard" copys of the evidence, i am also going to beat the wtbts to the punch by providing a copy the very day i mail it to my local p.o.
as i know it will get back to them anyways....at least the hard evidence will be "on record"
let what happen, happen.

many people leave the wts after a short period, often only measured in weeks, of theological discovery.
it is not an easy matter to recognize that the belief system upon which your whole emotional persona has been built has serious flaws, some sinister in nature, and often this leads to a rapid confrontation with the elders.
letters, most of them depressingly repetitive in content hit service desks in local branches worldwide, a few weeks later a sterile announcement is made in a congregation and the apostate conveyor belt shifts forward slightly, waiting for its next victim.. suddenly many find themselves outside in the cold, with little support, often without friends, sometimes with fatally wounded marriages and above all a crippling sense of confusion as to what one should now adhere to as a belief system.. my plea in this post if for all those caught in that no-mans-land, between the wts and the deep blue sea, not to play by the rules thrust upon you, but to plot your own passage over the seas of what is your life, and yours alone.
excellent advice.

my wife and i met with 3 elders for a "judicial hearing".. our crime: simply put, was talking.
i showed a friend the un website where the wts was listed as an ngo which then led to a 2 hour discussion of various doubts that we both have had.
my wife also showed a friend the un thing but also discussed with her a first hand account of a pedophile cover-up that we knew about in our former congregation.
willie...
io read your letter this morning and decided it was time for me to ask questions.
then i read what happened to you.
i'm still going to write that letter anyway.
you inspired me :-)

does anybody honestly think that all this exposure about the wtb&ts and the un really going to matter much in the jw community?
sure, it matters to us, since we already know the truth about the wt.
but it won't even make a dent in the jw population.
as a dub....still "in"....and for the moment attending meetings....
and as one of the first to e-mail the u.n. to get answers to this watchtower affiliation....
IT MATTERS A WHOLE LOT TO ME!

as of 6:02 pm last night i received a facsimile from paul hoeffel at the un on the wts.. he gave me 3 of the 4 things i requested in two paragraphs.. i have sent a scanned version to steve bates and someone else.. i sent it to kent and randy.
and kent and randy have posted the official united nations letter on their web sites.. here is the letter - put your cursor on the image and then right click on your mouse and hit "save image" to your computer.. .
after you look at kent's web site and you people still think this it is a fake letter, phone paul hoeffel yourself at (212) 963-8070.. hawk
