a scandal is brewing in the uk.
for many years gangs of asian men engaged in rape and torture of young girls who were in the "so-called" care system.
it is believed there were around 1,400 victims in north west england, focussed on the town of rotherham.. if reports are to be believed, social workers, police and the cpc knew it was happening and everybody failed to act for one simple reason.
It's my experience social workers don't stand up for anyone. My ex is a white British male and beats my son. Social workers and courts have failed to act. This has nothing to do with being scared to report Muslims. The care system failed baby P too.
A reugulatory body needs to be appointed that has the power to sack social workers for ignoring crimes, and holding individuals responsible.

the latest blast of "jehovah's trumpet" warns us about the irrational nature of common superstitions.... the article then goes on to provide counsel on the dangers of the domonic attacks that often result from unwisely purchasing second-hand objects.
the risk is demonstrated by recounting the real-life story of poor sister lemming and her new ministry bag.. genius satire as always!
please take some time to read the community comments.. .
I haven't heard of this website before. Very funny read.......but clearly points out how irrational and superstitious JWs are.
Thanks

do jehovahs witnesses fulfil matthew 24:14?.
one of the most used verses amongst jws is matthew 24:14 .no other denomination has preached the good news of the kingdom with the intensity that witnesses have around the globe.surely this must be the actual fulfillment of matthew 24:14 ,or is it ?
this posts considers the reason why the preaching of the news performed by jehovah's witnesses today is a false sign .let me know what you think.
What is being preached and the extent does not correlate with what JWs are doing. It's all nonsense and easy to dismantle. Kate xx
after a thorough investigation and weighing of the evidence the grand jury has decided not to indict the officer.. the reaction so far seems as predicted - people refuse to accept that the result represents justice despite claims that is what they wanted.. there is now violence and vandalism, including gunshots.
let's hope the police contain the troublemakers.. .
If police in the US didn't carry guns this wouldnt have happened. Regardless MB tried to shoot the cop, and the cop had to defend himself.
Sad outcome really.

i work for a mental health unit with 2 police officers we deal with people who have drug and mental health issues.
at times over the last 10 years we have "taken down" some large drug affected men, mainly "ice" these days which is epidemic here, and let me tell you even with three of us it is a huge struggle.
sometimes back up is needed or mace spray which is aweful stuff!
Not all police are angels doing the right thing, I have had experience of injustice from police. I don't feel I can go to them for support. But thats my experience. Kate xx
i certainly wouldn't.
and if the elders wanted to have a meeting with me, i would respectfully decline.
if the elders wanted to deal with you, would you talk with them?.
I went to my last JC and recorded it. It was cathartice to me and many have listened to the youtube and given support and recieved some guidance from it. I am glad I went and recorded it. But now I would not go again for any reason or talk with elders that don't care about me.
I have left for good now and all dealings with JC are behind me.
I will talk to JWs elders or not when I meet them and be polite. I am against shunning, I will not shun them or allow them to shun me.

long story short i was raised in this cult (but was never baptized) my mother is die hard jdub, i didnt take this "faith" seriously until i was 26, but i had always gone to meeting, was enrolled in the theocratic school and was mediocre in service.
at 26 i made the conscious decision to make this religion my own.
i red the bible cover to cover and used cross reference from the watchtower and other religious sites,with the end goal to get baptized.
Some of the list other religions do do. LIke it has been mentioned as for the others just because no other religion does it, it doesn't mean this religion is true. The fact that they shun is bad and not something t no be proud of. It shows they are not loving.

hello to all.
i've been on this site for a couple of weeks now posting here and there but have not had the opportunity to read about many of the regular members and what led up to their leaving the wt.. i understand that some of you (i'm part of this club) may not be able to disclose many details and i can appreciate that.. i'd love to hear what was it that finally made you renounce what is and hopefully soon to be "was" the wt.. i truly look forward to having good discussions.. thank you to all for your kind participation.. .
I finally left because I was df'd unjustly for exposing domestic violence. I was told it was reviling. I applied to get RI'd % times and then the penny finally droped. There was no holy spirit guiding the elders. I did loads of research on jwsurvey.org and jwfacts.com and then stopped going.

i wasn't looking where i put my feet, and i almost took the cart out!
anyway, i stopped and chatted with the people for a bit.
three women and a man -- an elder and his wife.
Well done. I like it that you said you have different beliefs, that way it's up to them if they want to describe you as an apostate. I always think the friendly approach is the best. Kate xx
