  New video "Jehovah Has Done So Much for Me"

  by NoIdeaWhatToBelieve in

  2. child-abuse

  hey all,.

  have you seen the new video on http://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/activities/living-bible-principles/adult-survivor-child-abuse-video/ ?.

  isn't this too much of a coincidence?

  Samaritan At the Well

  This video is a poor representation of the suffering the abused Jehovah's Witness victims have been thru. Notice this video says she was abused prior to knowing about Jehovah's Witnesses. The issue at hand is that many have been abused by those in the congregation and they've done nothing to help or protect these children. They allowed these pedophiles to stay in the congregation or later get re-appointed in the congregations.

  I am thinking that this video may actually BACKFIRE in their face. This may actually touch victims that are still in the organization to come forward and start confronting their abusers, imagine how many that could be.

  21 Years as an Elder, 5 as an MS, I will never be that guy again.

  by James Jack in

  2. experiences

  i was deleted as the cobe after i let my adult child move back home and he admitted that he fornicated under my roof while my wife and i where away on a rbc project.

  of course the elder mode in me kicked him out of the house.. the elders moved quickly to remove me because i was too involved in "theocractic activities", i had neglected my adult son.. i accepted this primarily because i didn't want to serve with a boe that did not want me.

  i was devastated however because it was the only life i knew.

  A random HISTORY of that old rugged cross used by JW's until 1931

  by TerryWalstrom in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  corinthians 1:18, holman christian standard bible "for to those who are perishing the message of the cross is foolishness, but to us who are being saved it is gods power.

  an austrian radiologist, hermann moedder, experimented with medical students in the 40's, hanging them by their wrists with their hands directly above their heads (much like the watchtower pictures jesus on a stake).

  in a few minutes, the students became pale, their lung capacity dropped from 5.2 to 1.5 liters, blood pressure decreased and the pulse rate increased.

  Excellent info thanks for sharing. Many years ago I thought I read an article from "questions from readers" that asked did Jesus die on a cross or a stake and I thought the very end of the article said something to the effect "does it really matter if he did or not". Does anyone remember that?

  remember this and other threads a few months back, on the subject that some kingdom halls in chile acquiesced to govt rules that every building should display the national flag on the day of celebration?.

  http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/262505/kingdom-hall-chile-has-national-flag?size=20&page=1.

  many of us here and around the net, calling on our dub experiences cried "never would that happen!

  This post gets the hair on the back of my neck standing straight up.  I am so furious right now.  Let me get this straight it's ok to use a piñata at a party because the meaning years ago is different than today. REALLY... How about Birthdays, Mother's Day; Fathers Day etc. 

  Now this change with the flag they are such Hypocrites.

  Who is your favorite "Apostate"? Who helped you see the truth about "The Truth"?

  i would have to say that ray franz was the biggest influence for me.. when i first got on this board, a poster by the name of james, a former bethelite and organization heavy, helped me understand a lot of the inner workings in the upper echelons of the society.. .

  and of course, farkel's common sense approach was (usually) helpful..

  at least i have this forum.

  is there a shorthand for referring to this website?

  saying jehovahs-witness.com seems like a long winded way..

  Reading JWD during the WT study helped me get thru the 70 minute Tower.... The conductor was so into himself and loved to hear himself talk so he ALWAYS went overtime every week.

  i have read the site with great interest over the last few weeks.

  some interesting stuff thats for sure.. i have left the jehovah's witnesses (was almost going to say the 'truth') for some time now.

  i was one of the lucky ones that was baptised then faded, no humiliating disfellowshipping but nonetheless was very hard to get myself out.

  How pathetic.... Two face hypocrites.  You can't get a college education to support your family and be successful in life BUT if you happen to just have a degree in your back pocket we want you to slave for us for FREE until we are done using you.  This letter makes me sick!!!!!!!!
