A Plea For Responsible Reporting

many hundreds of people read this site who are not subscribed, and i would suspect that the vast majority are jw's looking for answers to an internal turmoil that they may be living with.. the information posted on this board does get read and then passed among many congregations of jw's.

this information is a powerful force and is a wonderful thing for those who are seeking to be informed, and a not so wonderful thing to those in brooklyn who are seeking to harness the boundaries of knowledge.. given this scenario, and how much credibility can be lost by xjw's who perpetuate gossip and innuendo, can we check our sources and facts very carefully before we post information to this board.

there is no particular nobility in being first with news about some aspect of wts life.

gosh, so much truth coming at me!
only i disagree.

i understood hillary's post.... i got it just fine.

him and you are on the same team, and you are deciding what is bull or not.

people that know what happened to alot of people in those back rooms, and post little pieces of it, are labeled sensationalists, and are mocked.

i know how bad the organization is, you want me to lie about it?
i want people that have been in those situations to come forward, and go to silent lambs, and testify,............ while you give me shit......and mock me........ tell me more.

hi larc,

i think i understood hillary's post ok.
he basically wanted to get the point across that the jw organization isn't that bad!.......maybe something bad happened to a few of us in an isolated congregation, but normal jw congregations are full of love and truth,... we are just blowing everything up out of proportion, and it's not really true, we don't have the facts.
little children don't get molested and handed back over to the abuser, and silenced,....no....those are just exagerated accusations.

we should all tone it down and stop accusing the gov body of things we can't prove, cause it's basically a loving clean organization.

well, all i can say is.......keep the blinders on, hillary!!!!
i think you should go back to the meetings for a while.
keep your eye on that "back room",..... hahahahaha!!!!!

hillary,

so, my comments are silly?.......hahahahaha, if you only knew how bad the organization really is...

members in malawi were being tortured, slaughtered,.......meanwhile the gov body was using it as publicity....

hi hillary,

you seem to be missing your own point hillary,

the control that the gov body has, causes members to act a certain way,..... therefore, they generally do act that way.

and as far as the "invalid" that cong took care of, i'll bet the publishers were donating lots of money, more money than he got,..... ya, i'll bet they paid for the kingdom hall loan with him as a mascot.
and only the elders knew....

and as for the 20 heroin addicts......... hahahahaha.....they became mindless drones for the gov body, going along with everything the gov body says.....

ok hillary,

i like the idea of having the facts clear....
the problem with people like you is, you don't realize how bad the problems are........so you call it mud slinging.

fact; a large portion of the congregation was at the trial, supporting the rapist who molested and raped erica for years.

fact: almost the "whole congregation" "shunned" erica for turning him in.

fact: this little girl, erica, was molested and raped for years, and was made to be silent, and almost the whole cong went along with it.....

am i generalizing to much????

hi hillary,

in your original post you mentioned;
"~they~ have through cunning manipulation been formed to act this way".

~~~"they"?~~~...... is that a generalization?.....i think it is!
and a very acurate one!...... "they".... have alot of problems, and those problems are manifest in their lives.

but if someone mentions those problems, you condemn them and say they are generalizing?

you call it, mud slinging........ i call it facts.

hi happyman,

well, when i was "in", i wasn't looking for bad things........in fact, i had to ignore everthing that was happening around me.
you remember the standard phrase, right?.....just wait on jehovah!

you know, the pharisees had a few good qualities too, i'm sure.
