To actually say " contributing is part of your worship " ? WTF ? Whatever happened to the old adage by Russell back in the 1800's that " we will never beg for donations " ? Oh that's right- THAT was Russell - these WT leaders are nasty corporate sharks swimming in the water looking for financial bloodletting out of JW's wallets. Incredible how demented this organization has gotten

Update on the $4000 day fine - Padron v Watchtower
by berrygerry infrom reddit:.
this was an oral argument to dismiss the $4000/day fine.
both sides presented their arguments and now the judges will write an opinion (30 to 90 days).

Thanks Berrygerry for the update. WT leaders will do ANYTHING to keep that list of pedophiles from getting out into the open public. I'm sure there's very damaging evidence of higher up WT leaders, elders, and other names of JW men on that list and that it will show a timeline that in spite of WT leaders names being on the list- that they continued to be appointed to or serve in positions of oversight and authority within the organization still. THAT is what WT legal is so worried about being exposed. That they KNOWINGLY appointed these men into positions of power even though they were pedophiles. At that point Pandora's Box gets opened up and WT's situation REALLY gets sticky legally and in the public media. I can't wait. I'm ordering my special popcorn to watch the show. This has been a long time in coming. Karma's coming back to bite them in the ass. WT leaders deserve all of this negative attention. Criminals running a criminal organization

What is the Psychological agenda of the Watchtower Corporation enacted through its publications ?
by Finkelstein inbasically its to get people to believe in the things they say and proclaim.
once people are in a believable mental state and acceptance, then the wts can control people's thoughts, emotions and actions through acts of repetitive indoctrination.. this all comes together by instilling the notion that their interpretation of the bible is the correct and accurate one.
add in the notion of following us you'll be more righteous in the eyes of god , thereby offering a better chance of survival at the soon to come armageddon.. everything connects in a cohesive self supporting way and subconsciously effects the thoughts and social behavior of all those being indoctrinated.. constantly pointing out the many evils of the outside secular world or other religions as "false" but how one can gain true happiness when inside this organization is their way to sustain devoted members.

And like Chook stated, WT leaders use that fear and guilt to maintain that ultimate control over JW's lives. Disgusting and unethical

It's about WT leaders maintaining year after year ultimate control of JW's minds, bodies, actions, finances , and lives. In this fashion as Ted Jaracz once stated that, " the needs of the organization are more important than the individual needs of the ' brothers ' and ' sisters ' . "
WT leaders know EXACTLY what they are doing to further the financial corporate WT organization that's been in existence since 1879. It has become a corporate real estate company taking over kingdom halls while masquerading and pretending to be a religion that claims to have something of " value " to offer it's members - when in fact it has nothing it can offer it's members but failed predictions and man made rules to further it's own corporate needs. This is the WT Society in a nutshell. Also it's a criminal organization masquerading as a religion. But that's a whole other topic which explains things further

Were you or someone you know sexually molested by a Jehovah's Witness ?
by flipper indue to the fact there are about 27,000 members of this religion that are known pedophiles, and the information about it is kept in a secret database file, i wonder how many lurking jw's as well as others are aware of the severity of this problem?
remember, it's 27,000 pedophiles that they know about.
what about the thousands that don't get caught?

With the news that in Canada a huge joint child abuse lawsuit is being brought against the WT Society- thought I'd bump this up to let newer posters how prevalent these crimes are within the Jehovah's Witness organization, thanks for any and all comments.
BROKEBACK WATCHTOWER- I'm glad you had the courage to speak out against your fellow elders trying to appoint a pedophile as a ministerial servant. Good god almighty, what were these elders thinking ? Obviously they weren't thinking. Kudos to you for standing up and doing the right thing.
BUNGI BILL- I'm glad to hear that this JW you once knew got thrown into prison for molesting children. That's where they all need to be- locked up with the key thrown away so they can't molest and harm anymore children. I'm glad that you're children didn't get harmed when they were young. This is scary shit

Stuckinarut's theory is spot on I believe. JW's have been preconditioned to think negatively of any inactive marriage mate's that active JW's have. The believing mate IS looked at as a martyr for sure. And looked at in a negative fashion.
I'm looked at that way from most of my extended JW family - looked at as a " threat " to their alleged " spirituality " . That might be what you're experiencing as well Zeb. Good comment Stuckinarut. Hang in there Zeb- we're here for you. Take care, Peace out, Mr. Flipper

And then the Mojo album ends with this great song where the solo guitar parts almost remind you of Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin- I swear. Tom was at a high point here indeed.

Another very reflective tune by Petty off the Mojo album. This song actually got me bawling like a baby as I was driving to my son's the other day. Very poignant lyrics.
