JW's - an international organization?
by Listener ini always thought the jws were an internation organization but it appears they don't consider themselves to be that.. this was in a letter found on google was written by wt loyd vice president of the wtbs australia, it was a submission to be treated as a charity.. http://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=cache:qahsgte4vysj:www.cdi.gov.au/submissions/357-watchtowerbibleandtractsocietyofaustralia.doc+watchtower+bible+and+tract+society+of+australia+financial+report&hl=en&gl=au&pid=bl&srcid=adgeeshqa1b_fsujltkvmgfjcx1_ba5vup35fhuri35cmc4ndprw6ny-rofdcp8lbyzwio5ou--0bwurdjivxt_5m8fnmy9vdr0qeue-e2pxt2k6jpvzcy2ja4d7njakxcaqlujyxjkf&sig=ahietbrtufqf8i7kxtys0qlvyejniqq5ww.
issues regarding definitions used in australia compared to other countries.
the society is not an international organization having branches in other countries.. however, jehovahs witnesses are worldwide, and a different not-for-profit organization.

The feeling one gets after being DF'd.
by african GB Member inwhen i got df'd a few years ago, i had this feeling of freedom and independence that i never felt before then.
having been born a jw i always felt i had to please jehovah in everything i did.. in the midst of all that however, i had this gulity feeling that haunted me and kept following me.
i just could'nt completely forget about jehovah.

Disgusted over what her parents gave the Watchtower org.!
by koolaid-man informer jehovah's witness, pioneer and bethelite woman is disgusted over how much money her parents gave to the watchtower org., over 160 gorgeous acres of land in upstate new york.
one of the watchtower farms buildings was built on a portion of this land.
she will be telling her whole story and how her life was adversely affected by the "evils of the watchtower org".

the guilt borne by former Jehovah's Witnesses
by Nickolas ini have been noticing in various threads that many former jehovah's witnesses in here feel a burden of guilt about having been a jehovah's witness.
mostly talk about how terrible they feel for having imposed wtbts beliefs and strictures on people, especially on people they love.
i am beginning to believe that this is a key trigger for people when they finally get up to the point where they feel they must leave the society.

At what point did you realize JW's were a Cult?
by Think About It inmost of us x-jw's at one point no doubt defended the jw's when called a cult.
althought being out since 95', when i first came here it took awhile before i could use the cult word to describe the jw religion.
finding out about the pedophile scandal was disgusting, but it was probably finding out here about the wts history and terrible personal experiences of some on this board that made me finally admit that the jw's were a cult.
