I notice the Watchtower never mentioned the Fake Judge's Wife and Son, what is the story? Was he divorced and why? Is there any reliable sources we can find that will expose this part of the Watchtower's Tainted History? Thank you!

How to plant the seed and create some serious cognitive dissonance??
by Bells inhey :).
for a while, i've sort of been wondering why i always check in with this board... i mean it's filled with great people of course - and is my only link to what's happening in the jw world, but i shouldn't care that much... i'm not a jw, neither is my husband - it's only his batshit crazy family who are and it shouldn't bother me that much.. however it does interfere with my life and when i'm around them, they do somehow manage to make me feel like crap.
i think it's all mad and they are most definitely stuck in a cult, however my husband - who grew up as a jw just sort of shrugs his shoulders and is a bit 'it is what it is' - it doesn't seem to offend him as much as it does me.... every time that i hear about a new change or scandal on here, i think 'surely this will be what wakes them up'!

We made fun of Jim and Tammy Faye and the Fake Judge was driving two cars worth $160,000 (present day dollar valuation) while families were standing in Soup Lines. These are cars men like JP Morgan, rich Old Money were driving, not some punk ass Con Man Religious Hack!
The Judge built a Mansion and bragged on Print, JWs sold their farms and homes Pre-1925 and lived in Tent-Cars while Joe Blow Rutherford was living like a god!
Think of the old Gallo Wine Commerical, "We Will Sell No Wine Before It's Time", that's how it works with JWs. Nobody is going to realize it's the Long Con until they realize there is "loving brotherhood", people at the Kingdom Halls are self-serving and users. Elders and their wives share Judicial Confidential Matters with the entire family.
I meet another JW who left the Organization years ago, we reconnected and it took him five years from his first major doubt-shocker before the Fade began. You would think being a very special pioneer would merit much attention and "love bombing", nope! They allowed him to leave without any fuss.

Our Spin On Sunday's Lesson "Spending Long Periods Of Time At Beth-hell and R.B.C Might Lead to Homosexuality or Incest.
by SanLuisObispoTruthSeeker insunday's lesson is a doosy, it's very good advice for all jws with professional skills and abilities to avoid offering up their time for any period over a week, lest they might get lured in to a sexual relationship with another man, woman or animal or perhaps incest?.
why does the watchtower have problems with jws who have jobs that require long stays and travel?
keeps them off welfare and provides for their familes, they are control freaks!.

Will they advise all their Publishers with professional skills to avoid donating time in the International Work or Bethel? Remember, it's unwise to be away from your family for any period over a week!

Prosecutor Sarah Waters asked what Sewell had used to "bribe" her.
Giving evidence live in court the woman, in her 30s, replied: "Generally it was alcohol. I remember he gave me a drink of vodka and orange to try and because I liked it he knew it was something I wasn't allowed to have as I was only young.
"He would say 'Give us a kiss.' If I didn't kiss him on the lips and with my tongue he would say 'No, give me a proper kiss'.
"Then I knew it meant he wanted me to kiss him with my tongue.
"After I would give him a kiss using my tongue, basically, he would let me have a drink [of vodka and orange]."
Wearing a checked dress and refusing to look towards the defendant as she gave her evidence, the woman added that she did not recall Sewell offering her anything else in exchange for a kiss.
The court yesterday heard how respected Jehovah's Witness Sewell used his "position of power" as an elder in the Barry congregation to "exploit and abuse" women and children for more than 10 years.
Ms Waters told the jury of eight women and four men in her opening address: "He is a sexual predator that took opportunities available to him to satisfy his sexual desires."
Between 1985 and 1995 Sewell is alleged to have abused two young girls and also raped a woman, all of whom were fellow Jehovah's Witnesses.
He is also accused of indecently assaulting another woman by rubbing his groin against her as she made a cup of tea."

One victim described Mr Sewell's alleged abuse as a "power-trip".
"He is a sexual predator who took opportunities available to him to satisfy his sexual desires." Sarah Waters, prosecuting, told the jury.
"For example, he would use his high position in the Jehovah's Witness congregation to act in a sexually inappropriate manner with women, being touchy-feely and insisting that he kiss them on the lips."
My Walk-About is almost over, I can't accept I was tricked by this religion for so long, what a waste of my life! Tired of hearing BS like "We have the best-est people on Earth!" "The Worst Jehovah Witness is better than the best Wordly Charitable Person!"
I see Watchtower Society by their cruel interrogation methods is still treating victims of sexual abuse like they wanted a thirty year old man to abuse a ten year old boy or girl!

Ok, now I know why you atheists get so spittin' mad at some believers.
by Julia Orwell incuz they feel like they're banging their heads against a wall.. i don't really fall into the category of atheist or believer, but i'll go where the facts lead me.
that generally leads to atheism, and is why atheists end up getting mad and therefore rude at believers: they will lay out facts, raise questions, play devil's advocate, and reason in an evidence-based, structured way.
i've seen it many times before on this forum.

SanLuisObispoTruthSeeker
Julia, I appreciate your explanation, but in terms of logic, your original post did make it's own hasty generalization. There are atheists as well that can't make a reasonable argument and refer back to generalizations and emotional (usually suggesting higher intelligence on their part) claims on their own part, starting that circular reasoning we all despise.
Many can be said to not even truly know what they believe as an atheists, not even knowing the scientists that speciaization in explaining it to the masses. They see it as an alternative to religion, yet not able to reason out their beliefs. It goes both ways.
