"Thank God I'm Athiest" podcast. Episode #325. So similar to JW experiences!
by stuckinarut2 inepisode 325 of "thanks god i'm athiest" has a great segment that is so reminiscent of jw judicial committee judgement!.
starting at approx.
51 minute mark, the guys highlight the example of a mormon lady who faced their equivalent judicial judgement for "apostasy" for "not being obedient, and negatively speaking publicly" about her ordeal.. it also highlights the culture of their insular community (so similar to jws insular community!).

They are all dead!
by Sour Grapes inthe watchtower company and the jdubs talk so nonchalantly about the year 1914, the year they say jesus became king in the heavenly kingdom.
they talk about the year like it was just a short time ago.
the invisible king began ruling in the invisible kingdom.

Th WT cult's definition of what they consider a legitimate " generation " is false, untrue. It is not a lifetime of 70 to 100 years. That's a lie. An unreality. So that negates and discredits any predictions they make whatsoever even about what they consider a generation to be.
Websters New World College Dictionary definition of the word generation :
A single stage or degree in the succession of natural descent / father and son are two generations . The average period ( about 30 years ) between the birth of one generation and that of the next .
So all the debating and wrangling over how legitimate the WT Society's views on what they consider a " generation " to be - are a waste of time as the WT Society is lying about what constitutes a REAL generation. Whether they're talking about one generation - or - overlapping generations - they are STILL in the wrong. A real, legitimate generation is only 30 years long. So that makes ALL of the WT Society's end time predictions wrong, a joke, and dishonest

This brother " committed several murders and crimes before his baptism " .
" As elders , you have no obligation to reveal information of this type to authorities. "
Uh-huh. So if said murderer goes ape shit and kills everybody in the congregation or attacks children no big deal, right ?
It's letters from WT headquarters like this that expose Jehovah's Witnesses as a criminal organization, aiding and abetting criminals themselves. Disgusting

PALE- Your statement - " They ( your mom & other JWS ) just assume she's not going to meetings for a bit but will " come to their senses " . And that is what's part of the problem here. Your mom and her sissy husband with no backbone are being intrusive into your ex-wife's boundaries and your children, and by extension your boundaries - by trying to " save " your wife by being " supportive " to her and I'm sure part of the motive is to keep JW control over your wife and children.
The other posters here are correct. This is between you and your ex-wife. I would stop getting into it with your JW mom as your mom will manipulate the situation to align herself in a more deeply entrenched way with your ex-wife and child. You need to have a one on one talk personally face to face with your ex-wife to sort this out and attempt to get her on the same page with you- avoiding your mom's interference. Just my 2 cents. Best of luck to you my friend. Been there, experienced this with my JW ex-wife years ago. It sucks man

Update on Detroit-Area Murder Suicide - Front Page Article
by lepermessiah inhttps://www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/2018/02/19/keego-harbor-jehovahs-witness-mom-triple-murder-suicide/351559002/.
this was on the front page of freep.com this morning - sadly there are some factual errors in this article that people will jump on (not allowed to go to college was in original article for instance - hopefully the reporter will correct it).
interesting reading the comments below the article - all kinds of opinions.

STEVE 2- " Another reason not to die as a JW in good standing. Who wants a sales pitch at their funeral ? "
So very true. WT Society even tries to control JW's after they're dead.
I told my wife and son if I ever die before them I want to have " Stairway to Heaven " by Led Zeppelin played at my memorial service and for folks to just remember the good and fun times we all had together

WATSON- " Did anyone else get a creepy feeling watching the brothers gather around and with a monotonous tone recited the instructions from the society about how to handle these things ? "
Yeah, I felt the same Watson- it creeped me out big time watching that. It was like reading George Orwell's 1984 all over again. Control the " worldly person " or " enemy" .The elder threatening the lady by telling her " the police are coming " - or - translation meaning " you are going to be arrested so leave " .
Such calloused assholes not paying any attention to what she was saying , it's so disgusting. I admire this lady. And the guy who filmed it. More of these situations need to be filmed to expose the callousness of these brain dead elders

When did Cook, the new GB member, start claiming to be anointed, and what are the implications?
by jwfacts inkenneth cook was a "helper" in the writing department, which is apparently a role for those of the great crowd.
watchtower 15/10/15 p.3 states that helpers are of the great crowd.
"since 1992, the governing body has appointed experienced, mature christian elders to help its committees carry out their work.

When did Cook , the new GB member, start claiming to be anointed ?
Answer : When he started beforehand having aspirations and the goal to have more power and say in becoming a future GB member.
And what are the implications ?
Answer : Just that he's bat shit crazy like the rest of the GB members wanting to consolidate power and control over believing JW's thinking ( mistakenly ) that he and the rest of the GB are appointed by " Christ "
