Were you or someone you know sexually molested by a Jehovah's Witness ?
by flipper indue to the fact there are about 27,000 members of this religion that are known pedophiles, and the information about it is kept in a secret database file, i wonder how many lurking jw's as well as others are aware of the severity of this problem?
remember, it's 27,000 pedophiles that they know about.
what about the thousands that don't get caught?

Is the Watchtower a secret society?
by marriedtoajw indoes the watchtower teach that keeping secrets is ok?
does its leadership believe that the advancement of the organization hinges on holding back truthful information from prospective members and others who are not in leadership positions?
do you believe that the organization as a whole has a global agenda?

Is the watchtower a secret society. Well let me put it this way I was a dubbie for just under 40 years of my life, and it's only been in the last year and a half of awakening that i learnt more about that religion than I ever did in the kingdom hall. I remember when first finding out on the internet I was just so shocked I immediately went into disbelief. Even now as I look back I'm just amazed at how in dark I was. I feel foolish that i spent years trying to justify my concerns. Unfortunately my story is not an isolated case.

Paranoia of today's WT study!
by stuckinarut2 inthe wt study for sept 7th just breeds such a spirit of paranoia!.
using old biblical references just so as to prevent anyone from using critical thinking skills and analysing the "truth".. then using incorrect, leading reasoning to paint any who "think outside of the box" of the org as "apostate".... pure manipulation!.

Data dog=This has been my sentiments as well. Even if Conti looses she has at the very least taught them a good lesson. At least it's on public record that they lost a case for $21 million + $1, and what that $1 symbolizes. I say good on you Conti.

Hard to believe a few years ago they where slamming them. I remember a talk at the assembly that had the title "preoccupation with time consuming gadgets". Well I don't know if that were the exact words, but that was the basic theme of the talk. Any help someone on the title.

by 2pink inmy husband and i (both born in jws with extended family all "in" except for one of my sisters who left when we did) left the church 5 years ago.
we did not fade, we just didn't believe it anymore, told our families so and left.

What I have found works best for the witnesses is showing them relevant news articles e.g child abuse. It's neutral and I just leave it there. The absolute worst thing you can do is take her directly to an apostate web site because that is just going to close her mind.

Funnily enough I had the exact same problem the other day. I had this group send me all these notifications from people I never knew. I don't know what button I pushed but I managed to leave the group. If only leaving the JWS was so easy.

What Happened to the Religion I Left in 1995?
by JoshJeffries injosh here, new to the board.
glad to know this site is here.. i would not be writing this if it were not 2014. i was a ministerial servant and regular pioneer who left the jehovahs witnesses back in 1995/96, around that time.
i left suddenly, didnt fade away, just left when something clicked one day in my head during the morning shower and made me realize this religion wasnt true.

Oh one more thing you forgot Josh Jeffries. We are now set up as a hirachy just like the catholic church. Apparently now we have a Pope who gives the commands to it members. Google "Menlo park kingdom hall" to find out more.
