the big question is exactly who are these 11 men running and controlling the watchtower in brooklyn?
as ever suspicious.
do they have names or are they protected???
Well the 11 men in Brooklyn arent exactly a secret, I dont remember all their names, HOWEVER the 300 shareholders of the WT Society, now thats who I would like to find out more about, they are the ones that have done a good job in hiding their identities.

i have read in several of your posts that you are a doctor, what is your line of practice?
if you would share that with us here that would be cool.
also how often has the blood transfusion issue come up in your practice.
I have read in several of your posts that you are a doctor, what is your line of practice? If you would share that with us here that would be cool. Also how often has the blood transfusion issue come up in your practice. How have you dealt with your JW patients in reference to the blood issue? Have you ever had to get a court oder for one of your patients?
These are just some questions I have and would like a doctors perspective on, especially an XJW.
Thanks,
Dave
i publicly said the pledge of allegiance with my right hand over my heart.
the irony of it all is it happened during vacation bible school this week in my church's sanctuary.
it felt good.
Good going Honest !!!

Gumby, I agree wholeheartedly with that last statement you made, perhaps if enough people get involved in exposing the WT Society, then the judges will be more informed.

well my cousin graduated from high school yesterday and it was a very hard time for me as it just reminds me of all the opportunities i passed up, so please jehovah's witness children, go to college and get an education, dont waste your youth slaving away for the watchtower society.
you can be anything you want to be and go anywhere you want, but a good education is needed.
you dont have to suffer financially like i did for so many years.. .
Im glad you finally did it Forscher.
The WT magazine is so slick with the way the word things that they dont have to expressly forbid things, just say it in a certain way and the parents will eat it up.

Well basically at the conventions every other talk was about someone giving up college to pioneer, and my Dad told me that he wouldnt help me in anyway if I chose college, plus the fact that they had everyone convinced that Armageddon was just around the corner, so you can see it was kinda hard to get into the mood for college when you were to be destroyed in a couple of years anyway. As far as i remember the WT Society never expressly forbid college but they made it very hard on the children, and besides why would the WT have to forbid college in their publications if all the JW simply chose not to send their kids to school, in other words they go the parents to do their dirty work for them without having to put their restrictions in print.
There were several articles over the years where they did not exactly forbid college but worded it in a way that the parents would not send their kids to school.

i just found out about this last month from a police officer in the county just north of me in tennessee, i was hoping it wasnt true, but my brother darin confirmed it the other day.
a childhood friend from ohio who had moved to tennessee had died last year in a 4-wheeling accident.
steve burkholder was his name and he was about 6 months older than me.

His Mom and my Mom were best friends back in their JW days. I was told by Darin that his younger brother Craig is doing well and has a successful business, and from what I hear none of the family go to the Kingdom Hall anymore. Darin said that Steve was disfellowshipped when he died. His death really hit me hard, and to think they only lived about 30 miles north of Knoxville, I wish I had known because I would have went up and visited them before he died.

i started by asking dumb questions .
My experience with picketing is to do it all with a big grin on your face, it will make them so furious they will want to slap the grin off your face- LOL
Dont get mad or yell, just simply smile and it will drive them nuts.
