My "Lesbian" school mate said a "Pastor" is sexually harassing her.
by booker-t ini go to school with a girl who is an open lesbian and our classmate who is a methodist pastor at a church and she said he has been "flirting" with her for months.
he is married with 2 small children and he invited both she and i to his church.
she told me she refuses to go because of the "harassment" and she was wondering should she tell his wife.

Old time JW's/exJW's is there a big difference in the Babylon/Fnshed/Rev bk
by booker-t ini was only a year old when the babylon the great book came out in 1963 so i don't know much about what the book teaches.
i have a copy of it as well as the "then is finished the mystery of god" book that came out in 1968. i was wondering if the babylon the great book and the "then is finished the mystery of god" book has many differences in beliefs by the jw's then the revelation climax book.
if so what are the major changes that you can think of?

Do you think Pastors/Ministers should be "sued" for causing distress?
by booker-t indo you think that a church pastor/minister should be held "liable" for distress they cause a church member?
if a pastor knowingly "harasses" a church member for money(tithes), for more church service time, or harassing a member with "when are you coming back to church?
" phone calls to the point of the church member having a "nervous breakdown" should pay damages to that member's family.

Do you know of any "former" opposers that became JW's and or now "Apostate"
by booker-t ini remember reading in an old watchtower of this young girl that was an opposer that would carry anti-jw's signs at assemblies and calling jw's false prophets etc; the girl tried to get her jw's aunt out of the wt and ended up becoming a jw's herself.
i wonder now if this girl 20 years later is still a jw's?
if she goes on the internet today and see all of the stuff that she used to carry on signs would she leave jw's and become an "apostate"?

Do you think that JW's sisters are DF'd/DA'd quicker for "Apostacy" or men?
by booker-t ini was wondering if you think that jw's sisters are df'd/da'd quicker for being "apostate" or are jw's brothers df'd/da'd kicked out faster.
i must admit when i go to ex-jws events you tend to see more ex-jws sisters giving their stories.
maybe because the jw's men have all the power in the kh and wts so they would be less visible then the jw's sisters.

Is Jehovah a "false prophet" if he burns the earth up?
by booker-t inwould jehovah be a "false prophet" if he destroys the earth by fire totally contradicting many old testament scriptures such as eccl 1:4 jehovah tells us explicitely that the earth is stand "forever".
jehovah tells us in isaiah that the lion and the lamb will lay down together.
how is this going to happen if jehovah is going to burn up the earth?

Have any posters seen the website for ex-born agains? its called"Walkaway"
by booker-t ini was flipping thru some links on this website and ran across a website for ex-born again christians called "walkaway" and "fundementalist annomoyous".
i was reading some of their complaints and it almost mirrors the complaints of ex-jw's.
they talked about the way the born-again church treats members that questions church doctrines.

Did you know of any JW's DF'd for taking a "blood transfusion"?
by booker-t inyears ago my jw sister needing to have a c-section when she was about to deliver her baby but the doctors said she would need a blood transfusion.
my sister the devout jw's that she was at the time refused the blood transfusion and was treated like a "movie star" for her "intregety" to jehovah.
my sister could have died but she had a beautiful baby girl.

What are the new Discipline terms that JW's use now?
by booker-t inwhen i was associated with jw's in the 80's and early 90's they had terms such as "disfellowship" or "public reproof for conduct unbecoming of a christian" or they would say so and so has "disassociated" themselves from the christian congregation.
now my friend tells me they have added a few more terms such as so and so is no longer an "approved associate" or so and so by their course of action has "disassociated" themselves or so and so is "no longer" one of jw's.
whats up with all these vague terms.
