Please Comment on My Com to My JW Friend
by maputo95 inplease comment on my latest com with my jw friend who thinks every apostate left because they were doing wrong things themselves:it seems that every time we have a theological discussion or i comment on books written by ex-jws, you resort to extreme finger-pointing and judgmentalism against any church or organization that is not part of the watchtower movement.
i can understand why after a childhood of being informed by the wt you should do this.
firstly, the jw line is every 'apostate' is evil and has left the wt because he was sinning and couldn't live up to the 'high standards' of 'god's organisation on earth'.

Catholic Sex Abuse in Germany
by leavingwt ininside germany's catholic sexual abuse scandal.
.. as shocking as the revelations were, they are merely "the tip of the iceberg," says the current director of canisius college, father klaus mertes, who made public the sexual abuse of students.. for decades, german bishops tried to look the other way when their pastors engaged in sexual abuse, as well as to downplay the problem by characterizing it as isolated incidents.
now they are finally revealing their own figures, though hesitantly.

My JW Friend's Justification for the WT Being God's Chosen Organisation
by maputo95 inbelow is my jw friend's "proof" that the wt is god's only organisation and mouthpiece on earth.
he has yet to reinforce his strange story by biblical text or the church fathers or any historical evidence.. please, suggest how i may respond to his assertion.
i believe that this is the fundamental doctrine of the 'borg' and the one on which wt credibility rests.. thank you.. .
