  I think JW's are like a cult

  by LevelThePlayingField in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  why has the jw's repeatedly mentioned in their magazines and on their website, the child abuse problem with the catholic church but has not mentioned the child abuse problem within their own religion?why are jw's frequently informed about the court cases that are won on behalf of their religion, but rarely informed about the many cases they lost?

  why have their religion's leaders never informed the regular jw's about all the child abuse cases they've lost?why have the jw's leaders produced videos and literature talking about all the persecution of jw's in russia, but remain silent regarding the fact that russian is persecuting nearly all christian faiths?my belief is that answers is because they're a cult.

  i learned about cults today in school and to me they seem to fit it.tyler (i'm using my uncle's account)

  Yeah, my uncle knows I'm using his account. He doesn't go to the church any more and doesn't care that I use his account. I just thought I would say what my opinion was and he said he ok to do so. He's always so busy with his job at AT&T that he wouldn't have time for church even if he still believed in it.

  Thanks to everyone else for your feed back. I've been reading a lot of other blog posts here and it seems like everyone agrees that the Jehovah Witness religion is pretty much a cult.

  Today's local watchtower study. On csa! Must read

  by nowwhat? in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  my wife told me that the wt conductor said in in the strongest most emphatic way.

  that all child abusers will now be reported to the authorities whether there are 2 witnesses or not!

  and this is new thinking!

  Here in Cincinnati, OH congregation....there were 5 different witnesses who raised their hand and said that they were sexually abused by another JW when they were a child! The congregation took this WT article to the damn bank. I might upload snippets of it.

  I recorded it.

  Brother announces from the platform at District Convention 1975, "There were 1,344 baptized today. Proof that the end is very near!"

  Brother announces from the platform at Regional Convention 2019, "There were 230 baptized today. Surely the number of sheep-like ones is nearly complete. The end is very near!"

  New Watchtower president

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the main corporation is two words "watch tower" society of pennsylvania.

  don adams took over for milton henschel in 2000 when the governing body cut all corporate ties, and when he died robert ciranko took over for him in 2014.. the next major corporation in line is the one word "watchtower" society of new york.

  the jw's first black corporate president, leon weaver jr., was president of this one up until recently.

  He's there because he knows realestate. I know because I have personal insight about it at bethel.

  Or, no I don't. Damn!

  https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/jehovah-s-witness-who-posted-criticisms-on-13855357.php.

  i had this article pop up about the darksilver case.

  it says a federal magistrate in san francisco has now ruled that darksilver can remain anonymous but then it says except for identification to lawyers for the religion’s watchtower publication.

  New Disfellowshipping Picture

  similar to that recent convention video, this illustrates a mother ignoring her disfellowshipped daughter's phone call.

  This is similar to a couple of years ago...when the JW mom wouldn't pick up for her duagheter.

  Her daughter could have been calling her after she had just been attacked or something...but her JW mom would never have known that because she put the fricken phone down and didn't answer.

  Disgusting is all I can say...
