  "back in the day people didn't know not to abuse kids"- a jw explanation for their abuse scandal

  by purrpurr in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  a few weeks back i showed the guardian article about the borg refusing to cooperate with the charity commission into child abuse to a fellow jw.

  their response was quite amazing.

  they told me that in the 50s-80s people didn't know about child abuse, didn't know it was wrong and no one really believed children when they claimed they had been abused - even worldly people.. they said that alot of the time children lie about being abused or therapists plant false memories in their heads and that apostates lie about being abused to undermine our faith.. about the borg not cooperating with the commission they said that it was probably because they wanted to protect the identities of jw's who had been abused.

  The WatchTower Invented Everything.....Including the Human Brain..

  People didn`t have Brains,until WatchTower invented them in 1990..

  The WatchTowers Governing Body were the 1st to get Brains..

  Happiness and Freedom On A Paradise Earth?

  by Disassociated Lady 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  at a recent meeting there was a watchtower article about life in paradise.

  they were saying that even when witnesses finally get there they will still be under the strict instructions from the elders and gb.

  they may be given jobs that they will find unpleasant, also the preaching work will be ongoing because of all the resurrected people who need to learn about why they are given another chance.

  How do we know JWs are wrong and how do we convince others JWs are wrong: logic versus persuasion

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we like to think we are logical and have good reasons for for our beliefs.

  no more so than when it comes to our reasons for rejecting the truth claims of jws.

  we reject their version of history, such as the date of the fall of jerusalem, because it doesn't agree with the historical evidence.

  OutLaw there's a difference between what JWs are supposed to do and what they actually do. The very fact that so many Watchtowers warn against: education, marriage outside, friends outside, joining groups in the community, losing contact with Kingdom Hall when relocating, is telling. If these things were not a problem among JWs they wouldn't need to write about it all the time. They warn against these things because they occur so frequently and because they are likely to draw people away from JWs.....SBF

  Very true..But..

  Until a JW questions the WBT$.....Or..

  Goes against the instructions of the WBT$..

  There is no window of opportunity for them to start thinking for themselves/break away from the WBT$..

  Most JWs are happy not to think for themselves..So you don`t have a "snow ball`s chance in hell" with them..

  Your looking for a Specific Group,a Target Audience..

  JW`s Who (whether they know it or not) Are Already On Their Way Out..

  People hate God?

  by looter in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it is a pain that certain individuals pride themselves on hating god, who created everything.

  like it's understandable that you choose to not believe in him because of your selfishness or thinking skills but to hate him is forcing it a bit.

  i'm very thankful that those such as myself have the courage to believe in the lord.

  People make new friends, join a new club, meet a new partners, start a new career, move to a new location, or start education. These are the life events that tend to precipitate leaving JWs - other than being forced out.

  In WatchTower World..
  

  Your not making new friends outside of the WBT$..

  Your not joining a club of any kind..
  

  Your not going to accept a new partner outside of the WBT$.

  JW`s usually look for the Kingdom Hall when they move to a new location..

  JWs rarely pursue an education..

  So nothing you listed,applies to a Loyal WBT$ JW..

  Your looking for a person "already on their way out" of the WBT$ JW`S..

  And....That`s the Point..

  Unless someone has already decided they are leaving the WBT$ JW`s..

  You don`t have much hope of persuading them of anything.

  Your more likely to scare them back into the Waiting Arms of the WBT$..

  And I just wonder what implications this has for people who would attempt to persuade or convince JWs that they are wrong. Logic, reasoning and evidence are probably among the least effective tools.....SBF

  How do we know JWs are wrong

  It`s Provable..

  How do we convince others JWs are wrong..

  A lot of JW`s.....Like being JW`s..

  Your not going to convince them of anything..

  don't say anything about JWs at all. Ignore the subject and suggest doing something alternative instead of the ministry. Then instead of the meeting.

  No Loyal WBT$ JW wants to be a..

  "If the Earth were just a little bit further from or closer to the Sun, we would all freeze or burn"

  i'm sure we've all heard this argument by theists employing the fine-tuning argument.

  are you aware, however, of exactly how much this "little bit" really is?

  theists would have us think that the slightest change in the distance would have drastic implications for survivability.
