Excellent point Steve. It's a sad reality of this poster and those that came before him. Just emotionless robots that value the cult over the most vulnerable in it, reflective of the attitude from the GB on down, and the god they worship.

Why aren't the JDubs receiving more bad publicity concerning the abuse cover-ups?
by Sour Grapes ini know that the jdubs think that they are the center of the universe and in actuality, no one except ex-jdubs gives a rats ass about these religious crazies.
my question is i read that as a percentage of pedophiles per members, that the percentage is larger in the watchtower company than in the catholic church.
i would think that would catch someones attention in the media and make a good story.. what really pisses me off is the watchtower cult is gloating about all of the negative press the catholics are receiving concerning pedophiles not even knowing that the jdubs have thousands of sexual abuse cases that have been covered over.

Why dodge the question? It's the predictable pattern of those mentioned above. Come in, pick at anything, change the subject, obfuscate, etc. So predictable.

@Doubter - let's say 500 kids per country were molested and the prevailing method of handling it, whether in writing or not, was to discourage members from going to the police and to handle it congregationally. Lets say 100. Whatever. How do you feel about it?
I'm not sure what you doubt. You're clearly a WT drone ala Richard Oliver, Fisherman, John Davis, etc. Tell us, what do you think of Jehovah's Witnesses?

Well, Jehovah's Witnesses do have a history of silencing anyone they can, hiding the little men behind curtains, so what's one reporter. They can certainly turn her away if they want. It doesn't look good given the subject matter, but they are who we thought them to be. It's not exactly shocking. -

Young people becoming atheist
by Jayk inthis article speaks to me.
it talks about kids who tend to become atheist when they're older if they have parents who "talk the talk but dont walk the walk".
i'm not calling myself a atheist i consider myself more agnostic.

When you ask someone if they're in a cult and they threaten to never speak to you again if you ever bring up the subject again, they're tipping you off to the fact that they're in a cult.

Well, that makes sense. If it wasn't my parents who were hypocrites, it was the cult of JWs. It was learning that I had been told so many lies by the cult, including my parents, that I started looking at the Bible itself. After all, it was the basis for everything I had believed. I soon realized that it wasn't credible either. So indirectly my parents had something to do with it, but the reality is that faith is something you have to manufacture and put onto something else, whether that be your parents, religious ideologies, a book, a particular deity, etc.

Amazon Prime Same Day Delivery
by Iamallcool inwho delivers same day items?

thanks!.

On occasion I've had something delivered the same day without paying extra for it. We do live near a hub though. I don't know if I'd ever pay extra for same day. Maybe if it was something for my business and I ran out and couldn't source it locally.

Is Child Abuse An Issue That You Personally Have Seen In The Organization?
by minimus inas an elder, i saw one child abuse situation involving a man who wanted to be an elder and had i believe 8 children.
he was not in our congregation when this all erupted.
he denied it and moved to another hall and unbelievably, that body of elders wanted to appoint him since they believed his entire family was lying about him.

Yep. My neighbors, who we moved in next door to and who got us in the damned cult to begin with, were raping their kids. One kid went to jail, the parents died before it came out. It was super messed up. They adopted a kid who was the eventual whistle-blower.
A brother in the congregation had been to jail for molesting kids. A girl I knew in the KH and a relative of his was molested by him. The elders did nothing because the other girls were worldly and didn't count as a second witness. He's still a brother in the congregation. The girl I knew is shunned after being mentally messed up and turning to drugs before getting her life in order. He and the congregation wrecked her life.

Jehovah’s Witnesses Really Have No Power Over You Unless YOU Let It Happen!
by minimus inshould i go to a judicial committee and perhaps get disfellowshipped?
should i talk to the elders just because they say they want to talk to me?
should i simply disassociate myself and have nothing to do with the organization?.

Minimus, you're the one that started the thread seemingly having a problem with the decisions of others. I added context and experience. You have your feelings, and I mine. It's cool.
