Using Third-World Poverty-Stricken Witnesses To Guilt More Donations Video, Where is that Video?
by SanLuisObispoTruthSeeker ini heard about a new video where the watchtower has a single mother and her child eating millet or rice with almost no material possessions worried about donating to the world wide work.
now most religions are trying to donate to third-world countries, not the watchtower profit enterprise, they are willing to take a families last milk cow so their leaders can spend those funds fighting pedophile lawsuits!.
every place the watchtower builds you read about the angry citizens having to pick up their tax bills because the watchtower only takes!

I have to say I actually side with inside on this ... except maybe his use of the word never.
Helping a brother in need, on a local level JW'S do this. They as individuals care (of course the one in need must be active).
As an organization, I believe the motivation to help on a larger scale is more for a public relations pat on the back. -

Check your congregations for this creeper (Frederick Mclean)
by Stealth injust saw this scumbag profiled by john walsh "on the hunt".
if he is still associating with the jehovah's witnesses it is likely the governing body wt headquarters knows where he is at and is protecting him.

I doubt the Org is hiding him. If he is associating with JW's he probably is using a different name. -

I attended Christmas Mass with my mother at her Catholic Church (not as a believer, just to sit with mom) ... interestingly the priest gave two possible reasons for the Dec 25 date, the first he spoke about the early Roman church and the Saturnalia. I was impressed that he addressed it and actually made it sound reasonable that they adopted it into Christianity. If the Catholic Church was more up front about such things in the past, it would take away some of the ammo of the JW's. -

Thanks for the positive feedback ... although I am not sure (BU2B) how much longer our marriage will last ... however, most of my children have been influenced positively by my leaving and trying to educate them. It has been tough, especially the first year or so, but once I was assured by my wife that she had absolutely no intention of considering looking critically into the organization, I decided I had to be calm (with the encouragement of JWN folks like you), do the best I could by example, encourage my children to think and reason ... it has paid off, but it has only made the division in my marriage much wider. It's at the point where I guess we are the source of each other's misery with only one of us willing to make compromises ... but that's the way of a true JW, which I was at one time too, so I get it, there are no compromises.

Bought it and just watchted it.
I am not a "born in" but can relate to the experiences and how I raised my children in the cult.
Very well done. I thought it was balanced.

1973 Release from Liability form
by Marvin Shilmer intoday i added a new article to my blog.
it will appeal to readers interested in historical documentation of watchtower blood doctrine.
it contains an image of a very rare document from the early 1970s stipulating what jehovah's witnesses do not allow.

Interesting at the end on the signature line ... Watch Tower had preprinted the year as 197_ ... since this was made in 1973 and the end was to be in 1975, I suppose they didn't see the need to just leave it as 19__ which would have allowed them to use the form longer.
