who knew a wife who was in a domestic violence situation while a jw
by looloo ini knew a girl who got married at 19 despite objections from the elders , they got disfellowshipped and reinstated after 18 months , he chose her clothes and would not allow her any money , he insisted on doing the food shopping with her , he hit her if tea was not on the table when he returned from work , he broke her nose once when she was holding her 2 year old child , when she approached the elders , onesaid to her "what are you complaining about ,he hasnt broke every bone in your body , there are sisters who put up with much worse !
if a jw man is not supposed to be violent why would they not give him a telling off ?.

Mill Hill Disfellowshippings and JW prayers
by VM44 inthe following comment was posted in the "mill hill disfellowshipping" thread:.
all 4 were disfellowshipped for believing that the entirety of the ransom, including the new covenant, and the mediatorship and everything else in the bible, applied to everyone.. if that is the case, why do all of the jw prayers, public and private, end with "we pray this through your son, jesus christ, amen"?.
ending prayers like this implies that the payer is going through jesus, hence jesus is the mediator for all prayers made by jws!.

"Millions Now Living Will Never Die" seal
by truthseeker ini thought this deserved it's own thread since some say the society never said stated that "millions now living will never die.".
i inherited a book that was published in 1917 entitled "what pastor russell said his answer to hundreds of questions".
inside the book on the first page is a red seal with the words "millions now living will never die".

February 2010 Study Watchtower - Millions Now Living 'May' Never Die
by Marni Mai injust noticed that in the february 2010 study edition of the watchtower, they refer to the "millions now living will never die" talk in 1918, but they have changed the title to "millions now living may never die".
only problem, they included the picture of the invitation to the talk, which says 'will'.. ooops.
it's on page 16. enjoy.. .

A Disgusting Thing in a Holy Place.
by KnowlegeSeeker_UK inhello..... i have recently left the organisation on moral grounds.
on a principle ironically burnt into me as a jw.. i have only this week told my family i would not be coming back.
though i was a pioneer and bethelite, they are not shocked, i have been distant from the congregations for some time now.
