The Fight For God

the following is quite an interesting article on the state of christianity in the u.s. the jw's are not mentioned, which is interesting in itself, since the article focusses quite heavily on churches that aggressively seek to convert others.

maybe the jw's are losing their market niche?.

The Two Witness Rule is NOT THE ISSUE
by jst2laws in

2. child-abuse
the problem.

many here are supporters of the movement to expose the wt society's harmful policies that seem to shelter molesters and punish victims.

a common scenario is there are not two witnesses or a confession to the sin and the "loyal" elders have told the victim and their parents that 'there is nothing more we can do'.

has anyone gone to startrek.com and downloaded the new trailer?

this one looks pretty damn awesome.

although that whole "a generations final journey begins" crap is a turn off though.

all right, obviously i'm a little new here so bear with me.

just out of curiosity, has anyone here that was raised as a jay-dub felt resentment or anger or animosity toward thier parents?

i wanted nothing to do with the cult even at a fairly early age, but would a person feel that way if they had believed as a teen?
