This is the perfect time to pull out the letter from the Branch to the Florida BOE about the murderer who confessed. The question begs to be asked. " what other crimes are Jehovah's Witnesses hiding?"

Momentum Builds
by stuckinamovement inif possible it would be great to send a copy of the new "shepherding" book and the recent confidentiality letter to contacts in the media.
the society will try to paint this as an isolated case and that it is in no way related to their policies.
the documents mentioned above show that this is not the case.. what is next?

What is next? More victims coming forward? Press on the toxic spill at the farm? An article on the sheer hypocrisy of the organization and how they require child molesters to go door to door?

It is funny how this site works. People lurk, they join, they post, and then they fade away because they have healed enough to focus on other positive things. That is pretty much where I am at. I have found that I am now in the “fading stage” in terms of my posting and honestly I don’t have a whole lot more to write about. My fade from the religion is just about over, and now its time to focus on more productive things.
I am forever in debt to many of you for your insightful posts and encouragement. There are some damn good writers and thinkers on this board as well as some pretty funny characters. I wish you the best as you cycle though the stages and come to peace with the terrible truth that Jehovah’s Witnesses are nothing more than another manmade religion twisting the scriptures to support their self proclaimed authority over 7 million other people.
I may return when I am “unstuck” out of the movement.
Take care

Lurker's first post
by sseveninches inhi guys,.
i call myself a lurker, but it's really been a short time since i've known about this site...it's only been five days.
i discovered this site while doing personal research on the topics of porneia, oral sex, and mutual masturbation, and found a thread on this site about it.

Welcome man! You are in good company here. There are many ex servants, elders and even a few co's and gilead grads. It's tough at first but it gets easier. Give it time with your family. For many the "truth" is the only bright spot in their sad lives. It is a tough thing to tell them outright that the one bright spot is actually a lie. I am looking forward to your posts.

If it was indeed a Witness that he confessed the murder to years ago.......... it might be a good time to trot out that mid 90's letter from the branch to the florida BOE about not turning in the guy who confessed to murder.
That piece of information would catch fire with the media I bet.

I read something that talked about how his "religious mentor" knew something about the killing of Etan. I will have to go back and find it.

The Watchtower's money problem
by stuckinamovement inthe 8/15/12 report on the annual meeting contained very interesting information.
in october of 2011, guy pierce reported that plans were moving forward with the construction of the new headquarters complex in warwick and tuxedo.
he mentioned that after the project was finished in 4 years then the society would then sell off the brooklyn properties.

I understand where People are coming from when they say the watchtower doesn't have money problems.
But consider how they are selling properties below asking, reducing printing productions, canceling Gilead, flying their heavies to India for heart surgery, installing credit card machines at assembly and convention locations, trying to call loans on kingdom hall properties, trying to force halls into remodels, selling branch facilities...etc etc.
They might have a ton of assets that make them wealthy on paper . But assets ain't cash until you sell it. I think that have gotten burned on something that that aren' talking about. Maybe more pedo settlements?

Fast forward to today, a mere 8 months after the Annual meeting, and the Society is quickly unloading their Brooklyn properties often at a price significantly below the asking price. The only reason corporations will sell assets ahead of schedule and at a bargain basement price is if they were desperate for cash.
Why has the plan changed in 8 months? Why are they divesting themselves of their core capital facilities before they have a replacement compound, headquarters built?
I believe they have either lost their ass in the stockmarket crash, or they simply just don't have enough revenue or borrowing capacity to fund the new projects. Either way it looks like the Watchtower will need to ask Jehovah for a line of credit.
