  first and foremost, thank you so much to so many of you who have reached out to me over the past few days since my post on sunday.

  i'm not totally in the best mental state, however, i do have a very small amount of people that i can lean on for support.

  i relayed my feelings to a friend (my only friend, really), who took the initiative to inform my family.

  When I was awake and getting reinstated, I never put checks in. It didn't hurt or hinder. Don't give any money to this organization!

  Keep these stories coming! It helps to know we aren't alone and it gives any outsiders lurking an idea just how crazy things could get.

  WBTS goes to Court of Appeal (Charity Commission investigation)

  2. child-abuse

  after a number of high profile cases where both children and survivors clearly weren't adequately protected, the charity commission here in the uk launched an investigation into the wbts as a whole here in britain.

  the main concerns are around the child safeguarding policies being inadequate.

  wbts have fought every step of the way so far.. wbts have been to the high court, who told them to complain to the proper tribunal.. wbts have been to the proper tribunal, who told them that too darn right there were suitable grounds for the charity commission to want to investigate their inability to protect children.. and now the wbts have gone back to the court of appeal to demand that the charity commission inquiry be halted.. i hope the court of appeal tells them that, yes, they too need to have proper safeguarding measures for children and to get on with co-operating with the investigation.. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/charity-commission-defends-its-investigation-into-jehovahs-witness-charity-in-the-court-of-appeal.

  A Pentecostal schoolmate gave me a NIV version of the Bible. Since Pentecostals were viewed as likely demonized, my father burned it.

  Again, I see Isaiah 60:22 applied to the "acceleration of the worldwide work" rather than in former times the increases in average publishers. Busy work may be increasing, but it doesn't yield any results of people coming in.
