Article on Watchtower website discusses child molestors
by expatbrit inthe article on the watchtower website entitled "let us abhor what is wicked" comments fairly extensively on child molestors both before becoming jw's and while they are jw's.. here are the relevant paragraphs:for a man who was a child molester before he was baptized, there may be another consequence.
when he learns the truth, he repents and turns around, not bringing that cruel sin into the congregation.
he may thereafter make fine progress, completely overcome his wrong impulses, and even be inclined to 'reach out' for a responsible position in the congregation.

Is the Watchtower a form of addiction?
by expatbrit inhello.. this morning i glanced at the jw calendar for this month.
it has one of those spreads about how becoming a jw improves your life.
you know the type of thing: "when i learned from the jw's i was able to give up smoking/boozing/drugs/coffee/chocolate/naked bungee jumping etc etc".. i wonder if maybe the reason some people have these experiences is because, by becoming a jw, they simply replace one addiction with another?.

A weekend of bitter and unhappy apostasy......
by expatbrit inthis is district convention weekend in my area.
now, i know that in the good old days, i would get up early, drive to hamilton (an unpleasant place), sit all day on an uncomfortable plastic chair with no legroom and listen to the usual boring tripe regurgitated from last year, with only a short break to eat dull sandwiches.
then i'd drive all the way home, tired and cranky and hungry, eat something and go to bed, knowing that i would get to repeat the whole sordid process the next day!
