  It is absolutely galling to me that my wife submits herself to this madness

  by jambon1 in

  i've tried to get over this, i honestly have.

  since i stopped my kids going to meetings, things have gotten a little better.. but knowing the content of the convention programme that she was subjected to on friday, it amazes me and greatly annoys me that she goes back for more, today.

  for her to sit there watching those crazy, fear mongering bunker videos.

  I have heard from a JW spy that's in bethel that it's about the toes of the statue in Daniel and that they because of new light now believe they the toes do actually represent something and that they will tell us at the annual meeting. But in order to find out one must be an approved JW in good standing and invited to be apart of the annual meeting.

  Brother & Sister-in-Law Return to Kingdom Hall After Two Decades, Quickly Get Stumbled

  by TMS in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  it was a mild surprise, learning that a brother and sister-in-law had began re-associating with jehovah's witnesses after at least 25 years of being away.

  the couple, of hispanic ethnicity, are in their early 60's, with their five children all grown and independent.

  the family had been considered nominal jws, infrequently attending meetings, rarely in field service, but using the annual convention as their family vacation.

  I agree with what was posted above. This move is designed to hide money from attornies that will be suing them over pedophila . Dispite what has been said on other threads the only real fear the cult has is of people leaving and thier money being taken away via lawsuits.

  Could we use the new shunning guidelines to our advantage?

  by Island Man in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  according to new, officially published guidelines, jws can now shun a person who has not been disfellowshipped from the congregation.

  i see this guideline being abused by many jws who have an axe to grind with a fellow jw.

  for example, let's say sister peinindiass rubs sister sensitive the wrong way.

  The new guidelines are to shun unrepentant wrong doers. This is designed to alienate more people that are not in the cult. To many inactive faders are waking up jws so this was put in place to try to stop the bleeding. The simple fact is most faders are shunned by non family members anyway .

  I also agree with breakfast, If they shun you then no way should you ever let your children visit them. Tell them that Jesus teachings were in no way as evil as the cults when it comes to treating non believers or those that found out thier religion is a lying abusive cult.

  I often think that I should have never left , faked it and worked on getting my family to think for themselves and be better people then the cult would make them. Teach them better values from the bible and real love. Also the real history of the religion planting seeds all the time. You have to way your options and see what will work best for you. This is a long war were battling and thinking about and planning the long strategy is what it's all about .

  The cult wins when we're emotional, react quickly, etc. play the long game and chances are better on our side. If one is dfd or dAs then your cut off so your influence is minimal for the ones still in. You'll be able to maybe Influence your kids and maybe a mate but unless a JW is willing to talk your not going to help anyone else in the cult, that's the reality.

  Judge sanctions WTS - $4k per day penalty for not producing sex abuse documents

  judge sanctions jehovah's witnesses.

  imposes $4000-a-day penalty for not producing documents in sex-abuse case.

  by dorian hargrove, june 24, 2016. a san diego superior court judge has ordered the church of jehovah's witnesses, also known as the watchtower bible and tract society of pennsylvania, to pay $4000 a day for every day that it fails to produce documents requested in a civil lawsuit brought by former parishioner, osbaldo padron, who claims a church elder sexually abused him when he was seven years old.. in a june 23 ruling, expected to be made final today, judge richard strauss admonished the church for willfully ignoring a court order to produce all documents associated with a 1997 body of elders letter that church leaders sent to parishes around the world in a quest to learn about sexual abuse of children by church leaders.. over the course of the past year, the watchtower society and its lawyers have fought hard to keep the letter confidential, claiming that turning over the documents would infringe on the privacy of those mentioned in the letter that were not associated with the case.. in march 2015, the church turned over a heavily redacted version of the letter.

  i posted a month or two ago about my recently disfellowshipped sister who was feeling massive amounts of shame and doubt.

  i moved out of my home state 5 years ago so she has come to visit me twice since she has been df'd and she loves it here.

  i am a recovered alcoholic (5 years clean and sober) and spend my days with the most amazing non judgmental people i've ever met.

  Start pointing out to your sister all the problems with the bible, prophecies that didn't come true , contradictions etc. show here the scripture about the city of Tyre and the ones about Damascus. I think it's easier for people to blow up the bible and get people to agree then trying to blow up thier cult.

  There is a female ape that has been taught sign language and can hold a coversation with humans and there is also a bonobo ape male that has also shown abilities similar and one of these two (can't remember which) is teaching other apes.
