Slow to help....Quick to punish!
by FreedomFrog inok...thought this was interesting.. mom called this morning practically begging me to go to the jc meeting that's coming up this weekend.

each time i asked for a study i would say "i need help because i'm losing faith".

when she met with her parents, she brought up the infamous "walsh case" in crisis of conscience, where the watchtower higher-ups (including fred franz) had to give embarrassing testimony under oath about the watchtower's controlling methods and tactics.

Time for a chat?
by mrfunkleberry inevery year about around christmas i get a knock on my door from jehovah?s witnesses.
this is not something i discourage or dislike.
i believe encouraging debate on important issues is almost frowned on in western culture, and i genuinely enjoy the chance to discuss and learn.
