Lett briefly addresses the child abuse issues in new JW.org video
by Richard_I ini just read about this on the ex-jw subreddit.
link to the video (10m06s).. skip to 7:35 where he says: "another way we can contribute to the oneness - rejecting false stories that are designed to separate us from jehovah's organization.
as an example, think about the apostate-driven lies and 'dishonesties' that jehovah's organization is permissive toward pedophiles.

CO Visit this week
by Tech49 inso this week is our co visit, the first with the new arrangement where the second mid-week meeting has been deleted.
so only 1 "service talk" by the co.. this time, i decided to listen with a different focus.
listen like it was a sales meeting (i have been to many, and hated them all).. ok, so we go thru the obligatory theocratic ministry school, blah blah blah, so wonderful.

Unevenly yoked - it does work!!!
by quellycatface injust wanted to share with my friends, old and new, i got married to an "unbeliever" 11 years ago.. at the weekend we had our marriage blessed in our local parish church with a little party after.. my husband always supported my religious convictions until i disassociated myself in december 2013.. don't deprive yourself of love just because of the jw's.
life is too short.. god bless.

Advice needed on Crisis of Conscience
by cappytan inso, some of you may have seen my thread from yesterday about my wife waking up.. we had further discussion yesterday evening after i sent her the pbs video on the abuse scandals plaguing the watchtower.
she was so furious and pissed off at wt hq.
apparently a close relative of her's was abused by an elder and the only reason he was reproved and removed as an elder was because he confessed.

JWs and the making of many books
by Magnum inecc 12:12 - "to the making of many books there is no end, and much devotion [to them] is wearisome to the flesh.".
i just never could keep up with all the jw reading material.
as a zealous jw, it was my desire to read every word published by the org, but i just couldn't do it.

Using WT to advertise for skilled workers
by bobld insee january 15,2015 watchtower.on page 2 cesar and his wife rocio owned a 2200 square foot dream home.they both worked and had no children.
in 2009 (note usa was in a financial crisis) wt-hq n.y. sent out a request for skilled workers for their branch facilities expansion in wallkill,new york.cesar and rocio simplified their life by converting their garage into a studio apartment and moving in and renting their dream home.thus they would be available on short notice for work in n.y.. their neighbor(which cesar and rocio associated with) jose and rosa(stay home mom) and their four children ages 6 month to 8 year lost his job and the bank was foreclosing on their home.you would think a true christian would have a heart and see an opportunity to help this family(1 john 3:17-19 living bible).and let them stay rent free in the dream home.. footnote; january broadcast mentioned that university educated people were not required and january watchtower 15, mentioned they require architects,engineers,etc..
