The most sick statement put in JW print

by Chook in

wt 1973 p568.

"did you know, for example, that mothers and fathers that stroke the genitals of their fretful babies to keep them quiet are unwittingly encouraging them to become maturbators later on?".

what sick fu... writing this article thought the the average person did this to keep kids quiet..

The Society didn't invent this idea. "The authoritative Growing Up: A Cross-Cultural Encyclopedia covers 87 cultures in which it says there is no incest, just adults playing with, stroking...their baby's genitals." http://www.geocities.ws/kidhistory/childhod/chch72dm.htm

Elders Advice Backfired And Now Im The Happiest I've Ever Been

by pale.emperor in

just wanted to update you guys of the amazing couple of weeks i've had in recovering from the cult.. i was attending the meetings still just so i could see my daughter in the kingdom hall and have her sit we me half the time.

i had no intention of ever becoming a jw again but was hoping to be re-instated and just not turn up ever again so i could at least see my family.

but then an elder said something to me that changed all that.

Giordano, that "dislike" on your comment was supposed to be a "like". It's unbelievable that the elders wouldn't consider a medical emergency to be "necessary family business" that would justify "allowing" a disfellowshiped person to possibly come in contact with Witnesses.

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

by TMS in

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.

If this Witness wasn't qualified to mow the lawn, then certainly the woman who was known to be a sinner had no right to wet Jesus' feet with her tears, dry them with her hair, and pour perfume on them. How could Jesus have allowed it! Oh, wait, it was the Pharisee who thought Jesus was wrong to let her do such a thing.

In addition, our personal preaching ministry is not "in order to involve other persons to be the participants (followers) of religious organization". We just share the gospel with others, and people, in turn, decide how to act.

Ummm..."Go forth and make disciples"?

Nobody at work knows what JWs believe

by Athanasius in

recently susie, one of my co-workers mentioned that her husband's family were all jws.

the family converted after susie's husband left home, so he never joined the jws, nor does he intend to.

anyway another co-worker asked her: "what do the jws believe?".

Decades ago, some thought the Witnesses were Communists.

Simon,

Lately there have been ads apparently giving the opportunity to share in keeping this site afloat. Just checking--are they really from you? I'd hate to have anybody give to a fraudulent site.

Thanks for all your work.
