  i had to go into a office close to a supermarket on a very high traffic expressway with next to no persons on the street anyway ever near.

  i see this jw lady about 65 yrs old standing there alone with 2 bags of groceries staring at the catholic church one side across the interstate road and the kh across the other side of the highway.

  cross bronx expressway.

  JUNK YARD DOG- Am I correct in my assumption that you're a Trump supporter ?

  ( Figured I'd go down that rabbit hole, what the hell. )

  LONG HAIR GAL- I'm glad you didn't listen to those people and kept your job. I never listened to most of the alleged " advice " or " counsel " I received from elders either- most of them didn't know their ass from a hole in the ground anyway. I was considered a pretty " independent thinking " JW years ago when I was still in- the dangerous type who might help people start thinking ! LOL. Take care, Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  The lady commentator at the 12 minute mark saying about JW's " people's lives seem not to be destroyed with any financial burden " . WTF ?

  Is she uninformed- or what ? It costs hundreds of $$$ to go to assemblies , especially if you had children. Most JW's have to take menial jobs because they are told they aren't allowed to get a college education which further drives down their income earning potential. A typical JW is counseled by the elders sternly if they miss any meetings due to working nights when meetings are scheduled - thus pressuring Witnesses to either quit their jobs or find any other employment where they won't miss any meetings. ( Sigh )

  This show needs a real moderator who knows what the hell she's talking about. She's pretty uninformed

  STILL TOTALLY ADD- I'm so sorry my friend that the show caused you much angst and you had flashbacks coming forth from your experience. Please know and be aware of my friendship to you and your wife here on the board. Your reaction was totally understandable from suffering abuse years earlier. Just want you to know me and my wife care. Sincerely, hang in there friend, Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  JW elders told abused girl’s parents not to report sex offender (another one)

  https://www.gloucestershirelive.co.uk/news/gloucester-news/jehovahs-witness-elders-told-abused-1636907.

  a bradford man's sex offence against a little girl was kept quiet for 23 years because elders of the jehovah's witnesses church persuaded her parents not to report him, a court was told.. robert lee's crime in the forest of dean was not revealed until the victim had grown up and went to the police, gloucester crown court heard on friday.. .

  both the victim's family and lee were jehovah's witnesses at that time, said prosecutor kerry barker.. he told the court that having avoided justice, lee, formerly of coleford, but now of alexandra road, bradford, went on to commit further child sex offences in 2008 and 2016.. lee, who used the surname howarth at that time, admitted indecent assault of the girl in march 1995 in coleford when he was aged just 17.. sentencing lee to two years jail suspended for two years and ordering him to sign the sex offender register for 10 years judge ian lawrie qc said he was 'concerned' at the church's advice to the mother not to report him.. he also placed lee under a 10 year sexual harm prevention order.. “i've raised concerns about how this came to the attention of your church authorities and was not reported.

  It's horrific that this story can be repeated thousands of times across our world- and nothing ever gets done about it within the WT organization. Oh WT leaders will put on a good show on their website or social media or T.V. news - but bottom line is even right now , here in 2018 WT Society STILL instructs elders to report any child abuse cases in the congregation to WT legal department first - NOT to the police authorities. And then elders are instructed to tell child abuse victims and their families that THEY THEMSELVES are allowed to report to police child abuse crimes - but elders do NOT proactively report it themselves to police.

  It's a blatant cover up, pure and simple to prevent bad PR in the media & prevent even more financially damaging lawsuits from occurring. But if WT leaders were realistic ( which they aren't ) they'd realize that this hiding child abuse in the closet crap is just going to make them even more liable in future years. More & more of these cases are going to come spilling forward costing WT Society millions & millions of $$$$. If they cannot see that, then the WT leaders are either as dumb as a rock or stubborn as mules wanting to sit in their own shit and not budge. Or a combination of both. I feel no empathy for WT leaders whatsoever. Just empathy for these thousands of child abuse victims within the JW organization. There is no justice for them.Sadly

  TERRY- Wow. That is a powerful experience about your buddy's JW girlfriend. Totally true, the seed of information was planted- whether she liked it or disagreed with it or not- she still couldn't unhear what she heard. She was going through extreme cognizant dissonance. But - that's a good thing. The only way any JW will ever get out of this cult is to experience initial cognizant dissonance, and then you hope the scales fall from their eyes and the blinders come off with time.

  Thanks for sharing your buddy's experience- really interesting

  I thought this show was excellent. Very well done . My wife and I watched it together. And Barbara and Romy did a fantastic job of exposing this evil cult for what it is- a criminal organization. I felt so bad for Romy, what a tragic story that's been repeated thousands, if not hundred of thousands of times across the world inside this WT organization.

  WT Society and it's leaders are starting to get exposed more and more for their unethical, lawless behavior and all I can say is - it's about fucking time. Bring it on. Looking forward to Leah Remini's exposure of them as well

  so in my lunch break at work today i walked in the park, just chilling out when a woman approached and offered me a leaflet.

  didn't have to read it i knew straight away who she was.. me: my family are involved with jws.

  the new world was supposed to come in the mid-seventies but it didn't.

  XANTHIPPE- That was done to perfection ! Excellent job my friend ! You really appealed to this person's emotion by dwelling on family and I'm quite sure you caused this JW a whole lot of cognizant dissonance ! And that's a good thing. You could tell by the way this person was becoming squeamish and uncomfortable towards the end of your conversation. She was understanding the points you were making and actually using her mind to think for once in her life ,another really good thing.

  And this happened due to your great strategy ! Keep up the great work of helping people to think - no matter who they are. Take care, keep on keeping on, Peace out, Mr. Flipper
