Stumbled on to E-Watchman and found out about the UN/NGO association; that shattered my whole image of WT. Later found this forum which further confirmed my doubts.

What woke you up?
by Israel Ricky Gonzales inin march of 2014, i was a very active jw, a ministerial servant, gave a public talk, was an attendant for the memorial, and one of 4 cleaning captains for an international convention of 40,000+ attendees.
so what woke me up?
an innocent comment from a co-worker about the candice conti court case rang a bell that could not be unrung.

What were you favorite book in the organization? I know what you're thinking...LOL!
by BashfulAshG inwhat were *your favorite *books in the organization?.
out of all of those books, i liked "mankind's search for god.
" however, it appears to me that this book is incredibly obscure and no one recalls studying it during the old book study format.

Come on you all, what about "Learn from the Great Teacher"? The compassion and tenderness depicted in the illustration where Jesus heals the leper still brings a tear to my eyes. -

ozzie osborne in the bottom left corner.LOL, I thought the same thing when I first saw this theocratic treasure. Maybe it's "CCR" or Danny Bonaduce from"Partridge Family"."There's a Bad Moon Rising" -

WT is shorting literature orders by congregation with a problem contributing enough for literature $3500 just for mags
by oppostate inat our meeting last night there was a talk about having run out of magazines for the last three months.
it's expected this will continue to happen.
the "branch" has not sent the requested number of magazines.

The magazine placements are probably pretty accurate when you consider that publishers often place older dog-eared mags at the doors anyway. Publishers will fib on field service hours but not on placements. -

O my God - QCS Telecom, inc
by Gorbatchov inhow blessed we are with google.
with some little information, it is possible to expose the current watchtower corporations.. we read earlier about qcs telecom,inc that was transferred from the jw florida professor hachman.. hachman is owning the jwhsf.org and more domains, used by watchtower.. now, on linked in, some "brother" that works for qcs describes about his work and qcs telecom.. it seems to me, watchtower is using qcs for his own 100gb internet and deliver this product by qcs on the market.. all my grandparrents stood for, poor jw's devoting their whole live to this organization is thrown away.
they are openly commercial.. read it:.

Are you implying that WT is going to offer some kind of pre-filtered internet/VOIP telephone service to JWs through QCS Telecom at a discounted rate (based on 3 month rolling average of publisher service hours)? -

I love the way WT used to use the term AD, as if that added more credibility to their claims for the End of the world. -

Jackson Vs Lett and Morris: Pedophile Fiasco
by BashfulAshG inso jackson admits that there's a problem in the jw community with pedophiles, but lett says that it isn't true that jw are permissive to pedophiles.
also, morris says that jws where ahead of the game with the 1980s watchtower by blaming homosexuals for pedophilia.
hmm...seems legit.

One difference is that the young Bethelites he had sex with would NOT have been minors. -

Geoffrey Jackson's Golden Apple watch INVESTIGATED
by C0ntr013r ini went through the original footage to get a good look at the watch.. from these pictures we can probably say that it is a apple watch and that it has a golden color.
the color on the pin is black, and the band is white, grey, silvery or beige.. .
the pin is in the exact place for it to be a apple watch.. only apple watch edition have the gold color.

WT will point out that Jesus' outer garment (which the soldiers cast lots for) was "without seams" and therefore very costly for that time. This somehow justifies the Armani suits, French cuffs and flashy jewelry worn by GB members.

Jehovah's Witness Leader: There's a 'Spiritual Dilemma' in Reporting Sexual Abuse
by defender of truth inthe article is a good summary to show people who are too busy to read the transcript.
the main points are covered, without jackson's waffling... this is my favourite quote:.
jackson also testified that while there havent been any particular discussion among church leadership about apologizing to victims of sexual abuse, its perceivable that they might consider doing so.
