Giordano - right. I can't step away or sever the JW connection right now because of my in wife. That would crush her. Besides she has some handicaps that she needs me for and I guess for now I will just have to suffer through this.

meeting with elders about WT involvement in UN
by LevelThePlayingField ini still go to the meetings because of my in wife and it came about that the elders knew of my pissed off attitude about the society getting involved in the un.
so the elders said they could help me get over that and wanted to meet with me.
now just to let you know, i have only told my wife and her mom so far about it, that's it.

I still go to the meetings because of my in wife and it came about that the elders knew of my pissed off attitude about the society getting involved in the UN. So the elders said they could help me get over that and wanted to meet with me. Now just to let you know, I have only told my wife and her mom so far about it, that's it. I'm not sure what to expect. I did all the research already on jwfacts.com, way back about 3 years ago and have printed off the letter from the UN of their involvement as proof to bring with me in case they ask. If they don't ask then oh well. It makes me very angry how they say how hypocritical it is for Christendom to be involved in the UN and they do the exact same for 10 years.
I will not mentioned anything else during the meeting of the hypocrisy of the WT other than the UN for fear of being called apostate. And they have no clue of me knowing TTATT for 3 years and being fully awake. My intent is just to see what they have in mind when they say they want to help me "get over it". I will play it really cool and stay away from and one liners or phrases that get people into trouble or on the radar for apostasy.
So my question to all of you friends is what do you make of this whole thing? And what do you think I should do? Do you have any advice for me? Any do's and don'ts.

by The Marvster inhi all, i've been away from the forum for many months, perhaps 9mths?
well if you were around back then you might remember the title of this post in reference to happening upon two brothers on separate occasions and their reactions to me being 'not what i expected of jw's.
something unexpected happened a few days ago.

See, you never know who you're talking to. And TTATT does come through for you. I'm sure you will have plenty to talk about.

JW as a secret society - a weak link in the Information Age.
by slimboyfat inin the late 1990s there was magazine article that asked the question, are jws a secret society?
obviously they said no, because they claim to be transparent to outsiders and new members.
but they really are not transparent at all.

There is a new letter to elders about Child Abuse
by ttdtt inanyone see that there is a long letter on how to handle child abuse?.

I agree. There is a mention that the parents now have every right to go to the authorities. But only the elders know this. None of the parents do because this letter is addressed to the elders only. They should have a letter addressed to all congregations of the U.S. or UK or where ever. And then state the facts that you can go to the authorities. Then look out, because now you would have parents looking wide-eyed in the KH for sure, because yeah, many would go and pronto.

How would the world be different if there were no JWs?
by JW_Rogue ini think this would be a great question to ask active jws.
they love to say how the world would be so different if everyone was a jw.
however, what if we flip the question and ask, would the world really be much different if the jw faith never came into existence?

I never thought about all those trees being cut down to print those magazines. I remember the very first video the society produced called, "The organization behind the name", I think back in the early 1990's on VHS and they said one of those six foot huge rolls of paper would only last so many minutes on their presses.
Go figure.

This way they can make any changes they want to and no one will ever know.
