  What exactly was the point you were trying to make. It's not very clear.

  Wow, only 8 baptized out of a combined attendance of 3,044.

  That's barely more than 1/4 of 1%.

  Great news.

  Apostasy and Pedophile Scandal are Spreading

  so here's an interesting thing that happened lately.

  if you guys have followed my previous posts, you probably know my mother almost died from severe anemia, decided to take blood transfusions to avoid death and the elders announced the congregation she disassociated.

  last week a "brother" came to visit from a congo about 100 kilometers away.

  cookiemaster: when somebody disagrees with something is automatically labeled an apostate and treated like the plague. He says he thinks this is a form of emotional abuse.

  It IS emotional abuse. This is Control-Freakery 101

  DOC: I think they would better better results by being a bit more tactful and professional about it.

  Careful, criticizing anyone that speaks about the borg will bring you heat on this forum!

  Kookie: How about you make a video Doc!

  Thus proving my point!

  the problem with you, apostates, is that your doubts were not genuine

  by never a jw in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in page 10 of the correspondence guidelines, in the section of apostasy" i found the following:.

  one who has sincere doubts orquestions should be kindly aided inthe spirit of galatians.... i am forced to conclude that many of you didn't get any aid because your doubts were fake.

  so according to the wt manual, your main sin may have not been doubting, but faking having doubts.

  You are missing that, while doubting is not a disfellowshipping offense, sharing your doubts with other is.

  Stuck: They won't know what to do in the real world at their age...but no doubt expect to be taken care of by others in the local congs!

  That's not going to happen. If the GB won't take care of them, why should the local congregation?

  The GB are saying, "Go. Be warm and well fed!" meanwhile they are living like fatcats from the donations of the sheep they fleece.

  Let's review: It's a fucking cult!

  SBF: Sorry I should offer some explanation. But can I point out I have actually been gone for two years. It's not like I was just messing around. It was for a reason.

  Tell us what you want, leave out whatever you think you need to leave out. You don't OWE US anything. I for one am curious though, but that's it.

  It's just good to have you back!
