I have a cousin in jail who has a JW cellmate and he's been having talks with him. From his letters he's starting to sound confused and telling me some of what they say makes sense. I really want to send him the book COC but per prison rules I can't ship it to him myself and copies from amazon are so expensive. I really need a licensed third party publishing company I can order it from to ship directly to the prison. It's so frustrating it's taking so long. If my cousin comes out of prison a jw I'll have deborah to thank.

Availability Crisis of Conscience.
by Ben131895 inmost of us are desperately waiting for the availability of a legal crisis of conscience.
deborah dykstra provided us with two updates.
on december 12, 2015 there was a clear statement about the copyright which stopped all illegal activity in spreading electronic versions & prints.. finally, she promised a new update by or before may 6.. so far no new update.

Hello Everyone
by Mozzie inhoping this is the right section..... my story so far,,,.
hello everyone, i have been reading a lot on what most jws would say apostate websites, but i have been asking myself, how much of this s true and considering a lot of these are run by ex jw elders, bethalites and one who was with the gb at one stage, overseers and the like.
i was an unbaptized publisher many years ago but never got to the point of baptism as i fell into sin, that pretty much ended my attending meetings again.

Take a breath. You threw out a lot of questions all at once and it's a little much to answer so let me just summarize what I have learned about the jehovah's witnesses. The JW religion is a cult, a high mind control group and in the sense of Christianity they are very legslistic. Jesus set us free from the law and the JWs put "laws" back on their members. If you and your partner have been together 20 years that's huge! And honestly more like a marriage even if you don't have the damn legal paper saying so. If you guys are committed to each other than be happy and stop equating it to sin. Don't go back to the witnesses. Be free, live your life based on gods principle of love and be happy

Oh my god did u read some of the other blogs! He goes into a whole official transcript of the church regarding a couples adultery session making them confess every detail. What is it with cults and their obsession with sexual details.

Do not share any information about your relationship with any elders, other JWs or her parents, you dont need to. You guys are adults and the decision to date is YOURS alone! When they tell you not to see each other, stand firm and tell them they are out of line in telling you guys who you can and can't date. Ask to be treated as adults and for them to respect your choices! -

what buzz word from the jw's do you hate & why?
by Sabin inso my hubby has been on a bit of a roll about the jdubs, we were talking a lot about them & he said the buzz word he hate's the most is "worldly" why?
because he say's "with that one word they have condemned (according to their believes) a person as being worthy of nothing but death.
".

I too hate the term "worldly" and when they quote that scripture "no part of the the world". Ugh we live here, we are part of this world. Lets make the best of it.
And yes the "truth" and "apostate" are my follow up trigger words. I will roll my eyes when I hear any of the above.

Conversation with JW mom on this years memorial date and Nissan 14 discrepancy.
by Question_Mans_interpretation ini'm having an ongoing texting conversation with my mom right now on the march 23rd memorial date.
she completely goes into cult mode.. me: why is the memorial on march 23rd this year and not april 22nd/23rd when the corresponding nissan 14 commences?
since when did the organization stop following the jewish calendar for passover?.

Wow the Jewish calendar sounds more complex than I thought and sounds like there is an explanation. This is the last response I gave
Me: Good lord mom why does everything have to be with finding fault. You go to meetings, do u not? I was thinking when they introduced the memorial dates to the congregations that maybe there was some announcement or talk about the memorial dates and why the month difference. This year is a leap year after all and the Jewish jubilee just passed so I thought possibly there was some un known factors or a witness explanation.
Her: Im going out to invite people to the memorial and im in a hurry. Not close to any thing in _______! I am doing research, didnt have as much time when you were little!
