i’ve been here a long time.
i saw this site jwd/jwn.
i thought it was very lively and interesting.
Many years ago after 1993 I think when I left the religion then when I got a PC i started looking at sites about JW`s and one of the first was Shaun`s site and then Randy Waters another was a Brisbane woman name of Jan and more that 14 years ago I found this site and liked it so much I`m still here.
I think one of the first questions I had was about JW`s being an NGO with the United Nations Organizations I couldn`t believe that was true at first and had to get verification of it.

system of things comes to mind.
what does that mean to anyone not a jw?.
how long have you been in the truth?
Jehovah`s Witnesses do not have a clergy Class in their religion .
Except when they are in a Court Room .
Jehovah`s witnesses do not lie ,
except when they are using Theocratic warfare.
"The Truth" ,
when they continually deceive the people.
we all know how adam and eve are supposedly responsible for selling all of mankind into sin and thus becoming "slaves to sin".so what they did (if it's not a fairy tale) affected all of the humans that would come after them.then at exodus 34:7 it goes on to show the sins of the father being passed down to the third and fourth generations7 "keeping lovingkindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.
" (asv)even though i no longer look to the bible or regard it as i once did, i'm just trying to figure where some in today's world can even get the idea others are responsible for things that were done before they were born.
only religion can make people feel guilty for things they never did/done or were a part of and then make others feel as if they're entitled to something..
(John 3:16) 16 “For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life. . .
So why did God /Jesus cast Satan down to the earth to mislead mankind ? as stated in Revelation ? They could have cast him off to another Galaxy where he couldnt do humans any harm.
And why would they let him out of prison after the thousand years have ended to mislead mankind again ? That`s not a loving thing for him to do ,humans have more love for their sons and daughters never putting them through any such thing.
If you believe the Bible the only conclusion you can come to is that God hates humanity ,he being directly responsible for killing billions of people in human history whereas Satan may have been responsible for maybe only 10 ?
And why would God even allow Satan to exist in the first place after Adam and Eve to cause suffering and death not to mention all of the horrifying diseases he allowed humans to be inflicted by on Billions of people ?
So excuse me if I pass on God loving the world of mankind.

There has been a lot of coverage by the media here in Australia barb.& Joe ,both on TV and newspapers about those who have not joined the redress scheme and some scathing attacks on the JW Organization.
TV presenter lisa Wilkinson pulled no punches in her report about the JW`s telling viewers to remember this next time JW`s come knocking on your door.
The South Australian senator Anne Ruston was also scathing on those who did not join up to the scheme as was the Prime Minister Scot Morrison.
I think the WT/GB/JW.Org. in Australia has done a bloody good job of bringing reproach not only on Jehovah`s name but also the organization that is supposed to honour and uphold his name .
And they have violated their own stated belief of "Being obedient to the Superior authorities" Rom.chapt. 13
And are to be judged as " going against the arrangement of God."
i just watched athlete a on netflix.
it moved me to tears.
it was about the cover up by usa gymastics of child sex abuse at the hands of dr nassar.
I did sit down with the wife also to watch it and its almost unbeleivable how he got away with it for so long and to what extent the organization went too to cover it all up ?
Pleading the 5th is a good sign one is guilty as sin.

This doco caught my eye just before I logged on today and have it down to watch it soon.
Another show I saw last week on catch up TV was "Insight" Belonging was the title and it dealt with people who had issues with belonging in society and one womans experience with a fundamentalist xian cult was very similar to JW`s.
don't make me beg!
i am in need of a poetry fix!!.
it's going on a week now since eve's choice.
HMMM ,Are any of these people still alive ? I wonder .
spotted this article this morning.
i will try to post a link.. jtg.. australia.. institutions refusing to join the national redress scheme are "doubling down" on the crime of child sexual abuse, prime minister scott morrison says.. mr morrison and social services minister anne ruston have warned institutions they may lose funding and tax concessions if they fail to sign up by tuesday's deadline and will be named and shamed.. "all institutions are doing in not joining is doubling down on the crime and doubling down on the hurt," they said in a letter to 25 institutions.. "we consider it to be reprehensible that you have failed to sign up to the scheme.".
the jehovah's witnesses is among the organisations that has refused to sign up, arguing it does not have the institutional settings of other faith-based institutions that the redress scheme is designed to cover.. senator ruston is set to name the non-participating institutions on wednesday, when she will announce what action the federal government will take against them.. "we urge you to join the scheme not because of concerns about being identified, but because it is the right thing to do," the minister and mr morrison said.. "it is the right thing to do by survivors and their families and it is what every, decent, honest, australian demands.".
i`m with you joey jojo ,these idiots have brought Jehovah`s name and his organization into public disrepute all on account of 10 people they would have been made to redress under the scheme ?
If one thing becomes obvious here it`s that Jehovah is not directing this organization and if he is then he has less brain cells working for him than I have.
