  Reading your post brought tears to my eyes, both of joy for the victory and of sadness for knowing how extremely difficult it must have been standing alone.

  Very brave of you and your children!!

  I wish you all well.

  Anti-JW billboard going up in Texas

  by sunny23 in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  the first ever billboard has been crowd funded on reddit and will be going up.

  i'm curious to know if it will cause a spark in any jw's who already have questions or doubts and lead them to research into the child abuse cases and lead them to the thought that the wt and gb are not inspired or gods mouthpiece.

  at the very least it will provide people a topic of conversation and questions to the jw's who knock on their door: "so whats this whole sex abuse in kingdom halls thing about i saw on the billboard down the road?

  Help needed

  2. child-abuse

  as many of you on here will know, my sister and myself (along with others we know) were abused by a ms. .

  my first memory as a child was of abuse and i've had and still am suffering from the affects due to mental health problems.

  the abuser is now dead, but he was jailed for abuse of his own son previously so that nest of vipers will have known he was an abuser.

  First, I'm very sorry for what you have been through, I hope you find the justice you are looking for.

  many lawyers will take a case they believe is strong enough on a contingency or conditional fee..

  A contingent fee (in the United States) or conditional fee (in England and Wales) is any feefor services provided where the fee is payable only if there is a favourable result. In the law, it is defined as a "fee charged for a lawyer's services only if the lawsuit is successful or is favorably settled out of court.... Contingent fees are usually calculated as a percentage of the client's net recovery

  an awake!tm article about shunning spouses.. http://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/g201306/the-silent-treatment/#?insight[search_id]=f6240b1c-2a33-4ac9-a50b-f2130feaa43e&insight[search_result_index]=0 .

  How sad:(

  http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2015/jun/19/woman-abused-jehovahs-witness-minister-damages

  "The victim remained silent at the time, and her mother gave evidence of Stewart’s good character at his trial. It was only in 1999, just before Stewart’s release, that A told her mother what had happened."

  So they agree the pervert molested her but still appeal the judgement! They really are pigs!

  I'm happy for the young women who stood up against the Org with another victory. I hope this allows her the healing she deserves.

  Does This Mean JWs No Longer Point the Finger at Child Sexual Abuse in Other Religions?

  by steve2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  those who still attend meetings will be better placed to answer this question.

  since the conti case - but likely some years before it became more widely known in ex-jw circles and beyond - there appear to have been no watchtower or awake news snippets on child sex abuse in the churches of christendom.

  also, do rank and file still talk to householders about the churches of christendom's cover-ups of such abuse?.

  I would just love for some unknowing JW to show up to my door talking about other religions and child abuse.....seriously I would love it!!

  I would start by inviting the in to watch the Nightline and PBS NewsHour I have recorded on my DVR. Then I would share was happened to my family after a ex elder molested our child.

  I seriously doubt they woul even try that approach out on service these days.

  After twenty years of marriage…

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i just got a call from a friend who informed me that a brother whom i've known for a while and is an elder, just found out last night that his wife of 20+ years declared she was gay, and left him..

  i still need to confirm but my friend is very reliable and was close friends with the family.

  heres the thing, she spent 20+ years with this man, has children with him and now decides she wants to follow her heart.

  I was just going to say the single sisters will be making their concern known😉

  I've been married 20 + years and I think I would be very upset at first, but as time passed I would be understanding and accepting.
