Wasanelder, had the same thought when I read the title...
But seriously, if she felt violated it was only because these crazy men pounded this ridiculous doctrine into her brain. Hard to believe I ever believed their nonsense.
the new book "gods kingdom rules!
has taken us back to the 1990's with many pages of blood hero's yes brothers who sued the doctor who saved them...april cadoreth only 14 severe internal bleeding the doc got a court order to give her 3 units of packed red blood cells.
(alot) and saved her life so she can pioneer.

This needs to be posted all over the internet...on FB pages and YouTube...it's time the sheeple start to see that these are not isolated incidents but an epidemic of abuse that has been and continues to be sanctioned by the inaction of the WTS and the enforcement of their ridiculous practices that protect pedophiles while punishing and further damaging the innocent victims.
Shame on any of you reading this who are current elders and allow this type of behavior to continue in your congregations.
recently, we drove by the kingdom hall in galena, il, the sign was removed and it was closed down.
a while back, the hall in taylor mo was also closed.
one congregation in peoria, il was dissolved last year.
ScenicViewer, your situation sounds like one in my area. Spanish and English sharing a hall and the Spanish cong was growing fairly quickly. Land was purchased and the congs were making payments for years but it's still vacant after 8-10 years. Been out too long to know the scoop but it doesn't look like there will be a new hall, yet there are no For Sale signs on the property. Maybe when Momma bOrg stole all their savings there wasn't enough left to build.

Could have been a disgruntled former bus rider...or a family member?
Sad, nonetheless.
ok so aparently there was this young girl who wanted to study with the jw's because she loved the bible so much.
she asked her fathers permission but he refused, after much nagging though he said she could have a study if she was prepared to have one of her fingers chopped off.
he thought the is would stop her but she was willing so he got a knife and cut off one of her fingers... a little while later she wanted to attend the meetings and he said no and again when nagged said she could attend meetings if she had another finger chopped off so she agreed and he chopped off a second finger.
These people are just plain nuts.
And this story has made the rounds so many times it should have frequent flyer miles.
my wife and i are finally free of this horrible cult we will be leaving the south east for the north western part of the us to start anew!!!
our friends and family have no idea of our new beliefs and feelings on the cult so it should be a nice clean break!

I plan to share this with an old friend, an ex-elder who left his wife and the bOrg and was df'd but now tells me he is working hard to be reinstated. (WTF?) I thought he was intelligent but we'll see how he reacts to these news articles and lawsuits.

Nice statement, Flipper, thanks!
remember getting the sense that when armageddon final comes everyone will "have to know" that it was jehovah?.
the big "told you so".
probably on christmas to boot.... .
Phizzy, so well said:
I am hoping to be alive whan I can say " I told you so", the day when The Nations Shall Know that JW org is a Scam.
i just discovered that the circuit assembly my family is attending tomorrow contains a symposium entitled:.
help others to seek jehovah's righteousness: those who have become inactive.
i poked around a bit on here and didn't find any comments about this.
Stillin, I agree. From the comments I've heard, most look down on me with pity, convinced that I have either done something I'm ashamed of or that I've allowed someone to stumble me. Poor me.....Meanwhile, I am enjoying a beautifully cool sunshiny morning and I get to plan my day according to my wishes.
But I really like the idea of counteracting their attempts with "Oh, my goodness, have you not heard of the widespread child abuse scandals? It's worse than the catholic church!" and them hand them some newspaper clippings on Candace Conti, the Texas 6, the UK scandals...and toss in a letter from the UN as well.
