Email to Royal Commission on Lies

by LevelThePlayingField in

i wrote this email today to the royal commission:.

dear royal commission:.

i am writing you to tell you that many of the jehovah's witnesses who have testified have lied to the commission under oath, and they have done so with ease because of what they have been taught through their publications.

It's okay to post material to them. It enhances the problems, it does not allow the issue to die the death of time and distance. Most of the changes we have wanted came about through perseverance. I know for myself I unashamedly post things that prove G Jackson was lying. They are then overwhelmed with this human "outrage". Look at the example of those who have sought refuge in Germany. This is not a new situation, it just got bigger because so many feel safer getting out while they can.
What shamed the British Government into action?

Public concern, love? How about a bit of good old compassion? If something is wrong.........phone, write, post, yell...No amount of protest over a wrong thing is bad. We are connected now. In spite of that simon idiot who has no clue as to what we are doing to help.............arhhggg, different topic sorry...Do come out from under your' rock little simon..........

Is it worth making a JW Talk profile?

by Lemonp in

i have looked at the jw talk forums every now and again.

is it any use making a profile to get in?

mainly just to laugh at the pathetic discussion that they carry on with.

He really looks like he's dead, but reanimated for the session...A puppet of prophecy and whatever else spews forth...I can hardly believe that these idiots went public. They were terrifically delusional the day they decided to grab the "public forum"...It has been awesomely funny to watch these idiots "not remember" the script. They have gone downhill and made fools of themselves...Keep it coming you idiots!! It's entertaining to make notes on your dreadful performances....

I went there too. The thing is, that they are so very pro...JW. They would glean any information you gave and whether true or false, they may let you in. You would have to give details that would make you appear to be someone who want's to lurk or if you gave accurate information..you would be tracked...I wanted to have a look and realised they were so pro that they could not allow one second of dissension amongst the ranks..I don't think it is worth the effort.

London Bethelites Are Agitated!

by The Searcher in

a source has informed me that a relative who's in london bethel has said that a number of bethelites there are very uncomfortable and embarrassed because the branch has received "quite a few letters" querying why members of the governing body were wearing flashy rings and jewellery on some of the monthly broadcasts, but on the broadcast when the g.b.

asked for more money from the congregations - their gold and jewellery was not on display!.

will probably emerge one day wearing sackcloth, begging for yet more donations..

umbertoecho

What next? Will they be asking for the lowlife to kiss their rings?

interesting stuff re the RC in my local area

Simonsays..

.You really piss me off and I don't like your' narrow attitude. The way you try to create a conflict by bringing in other issues. Are you congentially stupid or just stupid through years of thinking you are some sort of smart ass for taking the opposite point of view?

I will debate with ineloquent assholes like you any day. But only for one day.... Why?

Because your knowledge base is probably a Wikipedia one Your assertions are invalid particularly on this issue.

Who in the hell do you think you are dealing with you creep. What credentials do you have that allow you to have developed such awfully twisted reasoning?

You sound like a psuedo intellectual without the strength of knowledge to base any of your reasonings on. Essentially you are shallow. I would love to meet someone like you face to face...That is the best way for me to operate. But you sound like the sort of coward that slimes out, makes a crazy, irrelevant statement, and crawls behind your anonymity.... You try to sound educated, but it rubs off in your weak attempts to divert attention to some "non related or specific matter"... that you never went to a university or even completed year twelve. No more you absolute horror of a person..You are all that I loath in a person..

I don't give jerks like you the time of day as a rule..You are really really low level thinking. Go and crawl into your grubby hole and do whatever you do when you think no one is watching........fuck off!

You are the sort of coward I have met in my life who backs out the second he or she realizes they are before the real thing, a person who cares and is not afraid of sub ....what evers as you...Truly. go back to your stinking hole and don't come back at me.

Right I'll get that one too. It sounds like the right sort of book for me. Thank you for bringing it to my/our attention ....no doubt it has been mentioned before and I missed it.

Thank you for explaining Data Dog.

I have been made very aware by the elders and their wives that they work in all sorts of fields.....One even worked in the place where my Emma nearly died...She is not there now..But! She went ahead a few weeks ago and contacted her old work mates to confirm it was my daughter. What sort of a crap thing is that to do..?

Stupidly, she thought that by telling me this it would impress me in some way. It did not. I told her off and asked what current "permission" she had for enquiring into my child.

She was caught out, she went red in the face and neck and I watched her very quietly as she and her husband were very uncomfortable...........So. I always ask whether this counsellor or that social worker or nurse is a JW, ...lately. It will not always be like this, but just for now as I have the right to get the name and the yes or no on my record too.

WE NEED MORE FIELD SERVICE REPORTS (Letter sent to Ecuador)

by elkatire1980 in

this letter was sent to all congregations in ecuador (south america).. the translation into english of the letter:.

to body ofelders.

subject: publisher who did not report field service time in the second semester of service year.. dear brothers:.

umbertoecho

I thought the same thing exactly as I read it. Just read the one on Cedars blog about the Polish letter elkitar 1980. It's just worded sort of .......differently. On the other hand there could be the dual purpose of trying to find out the stance of those that don't report. I sense some anxiety within the org due to so much bad publicity...They'll love though, it's really good "persecution stuff".
