i don't know if this question has been asked before,.
but, in any case,.
based on the comments of the governing body, at various conventions, annual meetings , info-mmercials, etcetara, etcetara, etcetera, [ i loved yule brenner in the king and i],.
They range from 85-115 on average. I would be surprised if anyone on them were above 115. This does not make them stupid...or evil they are smart enough to chose how they want to be. They are in a position to see it all... so they are more accountable for there their choice.
There average IQ does allow them to realize the need to hire someone else to tell them what to do :)

jehovah's witnesses sex abuse scandal: church accused of cover-up to protect rapists and paedophiles oct 11, 2014 21:11. .
by grace macaskill.
it appears that those in the position to change the rules or laws governing abuse are either unable or indifferent to making a real change in regard to the JW religion practices. One abuse should be enough to make change in how all groups need to conduct themselves. Religiions have a free run to do as they want...however some day this will change!

i am thinking of turning my house in to a ex-jw meeting place, getting bar, pool tables, ping-pong, foseball, pinball and kegs of beer on tap.
big screen singles pad for the local ex-jws to visit and hang out.
will this bug all the jws who live near by me, do they get weird around known apostates?.
It could be view as a Public Service...for your neighborhood.
Jehovah's Witnesses Harbor Pedifiles...
WHO'S KNOCKING AT YOUR DOOR?

we all know the cliche that "men never really listen or sympathise, they just try to solve or fix things"?.
often people just need to vent or discuss issues..."get them off their chest".
i have noticed that jws are just like a thoughtless cliched man..... when speaking with people in the community, they don't really listen, they just look for a way to solve the issue!.
Someone has to...

i put the kingdom first - by sheree stokell.
so they dunked me in a pool.
armageddon would be here soon.
it was just ok for me...it could of been great...but the writer chose to attack the male gender also...the husband. So was the husband the problem or?
I put the kingdom first;
The boy was a pioneer
But after the wedding day
I was only worth his sneer.
I put the kingdom first
And never made a sound
I kept up wifely submission
While he slapped me around.
I put the kingdom first
And never had a job
My husband cheated and then left
Me without even two bob.
Not diminishing the abuse that women suffer but put the blame where it belongs...being raised or controlled by cult leaders.
I have on my protective gear...so hit me!

things ex-jw's need to know in order to heal and move on.. ***.
1.you cannot change what you refuse to confront.. look at how you are feeling most of the time.
that sense of going nowhere and feeling down is not because you aren't spritual enough.
20.You will never become who you want to be if you keep blaming everyone else for who you are now.
I have to figure out how to apply this since I work for and are surrounded by JWs at work.
I feel like Dexter...always having to pretend I'm "normal"... "like them"....it's hard pretending to be of the Jw mindset.

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.
Yes...without laying the blame solely on my parents!

SW.
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!
