top 10 fugitives, one is a JW

by lancelink in

this afternoon i was reading the local newspaper and there was an article of the most wanted fugitives in the u.s. .

interested, i went through each person, reading all the charges against each one.

suddenly there was the phrase "jehovahs witness" whoa, back up a minute they dont do anything that bad!!?

thanks for posting that website. What a shame. Those rotten men I hope they rot in prison or in hell. I can't get over the blaise attitude of the WTS it is as if it is nothing to them. well if it isn't settled in the KH then at anytime they can go to the cops and in the meantime these pedophiles are abusing kids right under the noses of everyone in the kingdom hall and hell they made one of the a PO knowing full well he was a pedophile am I reading that right or was it a miss print.?. And the elders know this give me a whip so I can beat their brains out. How stupid are these morons anyway. It makes me sick to my stomach what these filthy pigs have done to innocent children. Oh and that two witness policy I love that one. I would love to enter NY Bethel march into the in sanction and tell them all that they are all brain dead, who the hell takes a witness when they molest a kid. Get with the freakin program GB are you all manical.

Like right put a gag order on how much was paid out to one witness well leave it to good old dateline to find out the amount. That is alot of money and if they pay that much to 16 people like that is pretty close to 16 million dollars and then all the other law suits against them, wow will the WTS go broke. Is selling their property off to pay escalting legal costs. They aren't doing so great. Look at how much it cost the Catholic Church and other church members from other denominations. Millions and for all the years the Society condemned every Religion on the planet here they were no different from any other all they did was hide in secret rooms and hoped it would all go away.

Well it hasn't their worst nightmare has only just begun.

How Life Can Change

by Sunspot in

i don't come by here very often any more (trying to wean myself away from this board in anticipation of when we cannot ever post any more.

in the last couple of years, and leaving this mess in jesus' hands, things have not only begun to emerge as "fixable", but have most definetely been fixed at long last.

i was invited to the youngest grandchild's (of this son) sweet 16 birthday party last summer and i teared up when i realized that this was the first birthday party of all three of these grandchildren that i had attended.. we have been invited to thanksgiving dinner ( for the fourth year) with our whole family and that of my dil's family (she is one of seven) and to spend a few days at christmas at another son's home.

Dear Sunspot so good to hear from you and equally delighted that things are going so well for you, It took some time but was worth the wait. I didn't realize you left in 99 too. It must have been the year of the exodus out of the WTS.

I am so happy that your family has united together and peace has been made for the most part. It is something we all want and deserve. So Sunspot you have been richly blessed by our Lord. That is grand. Like you I too have recieved so many rich blessing from our Lord that it seems that for every door that closes a new one opens up with something better. It never ceases to amaze me that as if on cue things happen and I know it is being done by the power of the Holy spirit and by the grace of God and Christ. Nothing canconvince me other wise,

I have a reason to exist and be alive. To get up each and every day anticapting what great things are in store for me. What adventure is around the corner or what is God going to ask of me. Right now I have been made the chief editor and publisher of our parishes Newsletter and I am so happy to do this for my parish family as they are so kind and loving to me. I want to do my best and honor Jesus Christ and God and the parish. So my Christmas newsletter is put out Dec.15th and I am so eager to see how the parish family will like it.

You have your family back. I have a new family in the church. Others also have family's back in their lives while still others struggle with families. I do hope that most have friends to confide and enjoy life with. No one should have to be alone especially at this time of the year.

So Sunspot you my dear friend, and your loving family have yourselves a Very Happy ThanksGiving, A Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year. And the best of health happiness , love . joy , hope, and peace.

all my love

i said hi to brother franz once as a kid.. the new ones?

orangefatcat

I have met Nathan Knorr, Mr Zoot suit himself stiff as a board. Met J. Barr very kind and friendly he was whisked away so quickly after his talk you had to run fast to catch him and I caught him we had a pleasant conversation but seemed in a hurry. Met Fredrick Franz with a body guard spoke with him for several miniutes. Seemed very friendly but at the same time distant if you get my meaning. Also knew Bro. Friend a nice older chap he died some years back. Also knew Leo Greenlee's but don't spread that around the board he was a pervert you know. Last but not the least was David Splane knew him when he was a young C.O. in training. Heck I didn't realize I knew that many of those guys. Wow I won't tell if you don't.

Are YOU a Better Person Now That You're Out of the Organization?

by minimus in

jw
friends

they say that you're like a dog returning to its own vomit.

do you think that you're a better person now than you were as a witness?

orangefatcat

Absolutely 100 percent.

You couldn't make me go back even if you stuffed me into a genie bottle and promised me three wishes.

My life is complete with happiness and contentment now and God is taking very good care of me.

I know I never made a mistake in leaving and I have not one single regret.

The one thing I miss is my soul mate and that is really tough still but I know someday I will be able to deal with his passing but until that day happens I have his memories right inside my heart forever.

Jesus tells kiddies not to play wih penis' or vulvas?

by lovelylil in

on the thread about the pdf for the 2003 listening to the great teacher book, i posted about the arguement my hubby and i had over this book when it first came out.

i threw out the 2 copies my kids had and then regretted it because i think this book is very telling about the wt organization and the issue of pedophiles and child molestation.

i wanted to address what happened here too for discussion.. i am not good at copying over texts so perhaps someone else can post here pages 59-60 in this book where sexual content is explained in vivid detail using the terms penis and vulva.

orangefatcat

I completely agree with Mary and good points. If only the Society realized that masturbation is a normal function of the body they would lay off the subject. It isn't mentioned anywhere in the bible at all. It doesn't even say the word. Oh and heaven help me if someone says the word pornia encompasses the word masturbation I will personally come through my screen and bop them in the head. pardon the pun If JW's and parents didn't harp on it so much and left children to discover their own body and its sexuality then the kid is going to grow up all screw up pardon the pun. But you know what I mean. It like telling a kid he can't smoke the more you harp the more you push him to try it. Just let it be and even if they try it most times they loss interest, I hope..until that special time in their life. You can't tell me for one minute that members of the GB did or do masterbate. Everyone does it. For the most part. This is no confession on Orangefatcat part. We are only human and God gave us pleasure spots and so if some one wants to enjoy that then its there business not the WTS business. Right Orangefatcat? Yep you said a mouth full Terry Pussy cat your getting a spanking go to you closet until tomorrow. What a grinch. :)

you know that the Society isn't stupid. They play the fear factor game. We will tell the kiddies about Satan the Devil really early so they can have nightmares about him. Then they tell you if you do something wrong you please Satan. Jehovah will destroy you if you please Satan, do you want to die forever like the Devil? Hell that is so much pressure for a child. It is rotton.. Wow what a hell of a guilt trip to put on kids. Then the kill statement, you don't want to make Satan happy do you? You want to please Jehovah right? Talk about brainwashing. I think the Governing Body are sexual repressed. So they get their jollies writing about it.

I mean to tell a two or three year olds what the names of private parts are is insane. The Society presumes to much. Can you imagine Jesus having all the children around him and he teaching the names of their private parts. I doubt it very much. He has so much love for children and their innocence he isn't burdenning them done with the names of body parts. He more than likely spoke about the happy things children like and he taught them of love and obedience to mom and dad.

I mean where oh where does the GB get the chuzpah to write this stuff. The children in this world are exposed early enough about sex and I think parents need to speak to their children about it, but not the WTS, it is something they have overstepped the boundaries . They have interferred with something that is the parents responsibility. It is something that parents do not the Society.

It is true children seem to grow up faster now, but still putting something explicit in a childs book is totally inappropriate.

that language is more suited for teenagers. Not toddlers. If all parents are warned to keep their children with them at the meetings then the chances of them being lured away is lesser, but it is the parents who allow their kids to run around the kingdom hall they are the ones that will be targeted by the pedophile. He sees them as children who are disobedent to parents and can easily gain that childs confidence with bribes and promises. They have all the tricks up their sleeves and as parents they must be warned to watch out for their precious children.

interested to hear from any who have traveled or moved around a bunch....i am talking climate, nearness to mountains or beach or both, cost of living, etc.....as much as i love what california has to offer naturewise, the natural disasters and cost of living there bum me out....since i like mountains and beach, a climate a little less hot than florida.... i lean toward virginia straight south down through georgia, so both carolinas too.

maybe maryland too, but the further north you go, the colder the water and worse the winter, but still the new england coastal states are incredible........oompa.

A couple of Doctors suggest Arizona on account of my COPD and Arthritis' because your heat is a dry arid heat with out that disgusting humidity we get here in Ontario. Could never afford living in the US the insurance is astranomical and they wouldn't give it to an already sick person it would be a burden of the state.

Maybe someday a visit would be in order. Of course that has to be after my trip to Greece and heaven knows how many years it willl take me to get there. I promised Marco I would put his ashes either in his home village in the mountains which would very difficult for me or he said over the Greek waters of the Mediterrean Sea. I don't like flying so it would have to be by a ship. And so that is why it may take me many yrs to pay for this trip. If it doesn't happpen perhaps my son someday could take both mine and Marco's ashes to Greece and he can do for us.

I would love to live in Greece it is amazing place and the people are amazing and so very hospitable. Family is important to Greeks even though they fight they still love one another very much.

well if you are speaking about North America, then I say Ontario is a great place to live. It is a beautiful province.

Lets face every place on this North American continenant has its own beauty. I think Colorado is beaufitul and Oregon, Utah, The Dakotas, Virgina, South Carolina is beautiful, and I would love to see the Pacific coast some day. I hope that with in the next five or six years I can save enough money to go to Greece a spread my husbands ashes over the mountains of his birth place or if I can't get into the mountains then I told him I will place them in the Mediterrerean Sea and said that would be okay too.

Orangefatcat love the whole world because in every corner of then world there are great people.
