According to Oct.1st 2012 WT Directions- Past Child Molesters CAN Be Appointed Elders
by flipper inconsidering the fact that the wt society refuses to release in courts any of it's written directions to elders through confidential letters to elder bodies- i thought i'd do the courts and wt society a "favor " by posting excerpts from this oct 1st.
2012 letter from the wt society to all bodies of elders.
these instructions are very exposing of the negligence of wt authorities in how they view the seriousness of felony child abuse.

Five Jehovah Witnesses Arrested for Failing to Donate Blood to Their Anaemic Child - Malawi
by AFRIKANMAN inby arnold namanja.
police in mangochi have arrested five members of a family for failing to donate blood to their 7-year old anaemic child due to religious beliefs, malawi news agency has established.. the five have been identified as 34 year old simon kamwendo (father of the child), his grandfather bernard kamwendo, 69, brothers solomon and divason mwabwino, both 21, and byson chidandala an uncle to the child.. failure to provide a child with necessities contravenes section 242 of the penal code, hence the arrest of the five who belong to the jehovah's witness faith.. a source, macdonald danger told mana that medical doctors at koche health centre diagnosed the boy of malaria with anaemia and recommended blood transfusion, but the five rejected the prescription.. "the child was suffering from malaria and was taken to koche health centre where it was discovered that he was anaemic and needed blood," he said.. "when asked to donate, all the five guardians who are family members refused to do so saying that their faith does not allow them to receive or to donate blood," danger added.. .
according to danger, the resistance prompted officials at the hospital to seek the intervention of makolola police unit, which led to the arrests.. mangochi police station public relations officer, inspector rodrick maida confirmed the arrests of the five jehova's witness members.. "we arrested the five following a report from koche clinic which asked for our intervention in the matter whereby these people were refusing to donate blood to a patient who needed to be saved from dying," he said.. he said the five will soon appear before the court to answer to a charge of failing to provide necessities to a child under their care.. all the five hail from mapata village in the area of traditional authority mponda in mangochi.. .

Introducing myself
by maksutov inmy name is russ, i'm 40 years old, from the uk, and i left the jws nearly 5 years ago.
i've been a member of the yuku board throughout that time, so there are probably some on here who know me already.
there seems to be more activity over here at the moment, so i thought i'd pop in and say hi.i was raised as a jw, started questioning it when i was 16, but there was no internet back then (well, no www anyway) so i got sucked right in and got baptized when i was 18. auxiliary pioneered on and off for a couple of years, then became a ministerial servant.

Funny story about dumb JW rules
by cookiemaster insome years ago (the year when i got baptized), i was at a district convention (or whatever they call them these days) with my best friend.
he had a part in one of those acting parts at the convention (i have no idea the term jw's use for them in english).
anyway, we were both seeing through the bullshit of the borg but weren't aware at the time of this forum or other "apostate" groups, nor of the full extent of the perversity of this religion.
