  Born In JWs: Were You Abused According to the CDC?

  by ABibleStudent in

  2. child-abuse

  child abuse in the usa.

  child abuse is the physical, sexual or emotional maltreatment or neglect of a child or children.

  in the united states, the centers for disease control and prevention (cdc) and the department for children and families (dcf) define child maltreatment as any act or series of acts of commission or omission by a parent or other caregiver that results in harm, potential for harm, or threat of harm to a child.

  God listens and RESPONDS to your prayer if you know how to log on to Him! Here is the proof.

  all my family members and friends (that include some elders) advised me to divorce my wife whose only joy was to pick up fight with me for everything i do, except my grand-mother who said: when you married her, you looked for only her good pointher regular pioneering despite having an opposing family.

  for being good, you will ultimately reap something far better through her.

  stick on to her.

  Well good for you...glad it worked. So far!

  It would be great if God did answer prayer!

  So it must be that millions who pray for help, personally and for the well being of others don't know how to pray...so God lets people starve to death? Or other inhuman things happen.

  What will happen...happens!

  thanks, Terry... who can dispute the facts given? No one can!

  That's what makes post like this valuable, the info is from those that say "we never said that".

  It saddens me that like myself...millions put their hope, faith, and trust in the WTS teachings.

  Lives lost, opportunities not taken and many with little time left to undo the affects of misplaced trust.

  Will the JW.Org Site make a difference ?

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it will obviously make a difference to how jw's obtain their literatrash, they will have to download and print it all themselves before long.. it will make a small difference to the dtod work, they will now refer even genuine questions and interest etc to the site, not taking the opportunity to "witness" on the initial call at all.

  this has been happening already to a degree.. the difference i am mainly interested in is the capture of new suckers in to the borg.. we will be able to see when we get 2014's figures, sometime next year, what the rate of increase was over the last ten years.. phizzy the prophet predicts that the rate of increase over the next ten years will not be significantly up.

  probably down, but certainly, i feel, not so different from the last ten.. should i be around in ten years to do so, i will wish to ask jw's:.

  Why are 'most' of the people fighting in the Middle East MEN???

  by NAVYTOWN in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it seems that in every war or revolution, 'most' of the participants are men and young boys.

  aside from the occasional female suicide bomber.

  does this have something to do with their religion and/ or cultural traditions?

  For many generations of men in the USA they wanted to protect loved ones and homeland...yes that included all gender. Men with thought prosess in check will protect women, wives, children... all their loved ones with their lives. Thats not being aggressive it's being responsive...protective Of those less likely to ward off the aggressor.

  ***Re: Why are 'most' of the people fighting in the Middle East MEN??

  This region breeds hate...read the bible it will give some insight as to why...they are motivated by a different set of outcomes.

  ***Another feature of the Bedouin ethos is the law of blood revenge. A much quoted Arab proverb is, “Blood demands blood.” Relatives must avenge the blood of the slain by killing either the actual murderer or one of his relatives. Even when a murderer is apprehended, convicted in a court of law, and executed, it does not fulfill the requirements of blood revenge. One of the relatives of the executed man must die by the hand of one of the victim’s relatives. And, of course, the murdered relative’s blood must be avenged by his relatives. Thus it continues ad infinitum. An Arab man once remarked that “both the Japanese and the Arabs are ready to kill to regain their lost honor; but the Japanese will kill himself, while the Arab will kill somebody else” (cited in ibid ., p. 212).

  Maybe men are expendable?

  Malaysian flight crash in Ukraine VS Flight 93 in Pennsylvania

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i wonder if anybody else has wondered about the differences between those 2 flights?

  in the malaysian flight that crashed from 30,000 feet high, tons of wreckage, body parts, bodies, documents, etc, all over the place.

  yet in the pa flight 93, just a crater in the ground, no bodies, everything supposedly vaporized.

  GB guilty of the ultimate spiritual crimes. How can JW's believe this stuff?

  by integ in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the gb is guilty of the ultimate spiritual crimes.

  blasphemy against god by claiming they "speak for jehovah".

  they said it again recently in an article..that they speak the words of jehovah and we should listen to those words.

  Education: give it a go... I like many here, we were indoctrinated...Look it up an educate yourself!

  Im not so now... and this is what allows me to see the fallacy in your words!

  We believed because we had nothing else to base belief on! We were told what to believe and death or gods disaproval if other thoughts were to come into our minds. We were made weak minded. But not now!
