  my elder buddy and i would frequent strip clubs when we wanted to.. a few friends knew i enjoyed clubbing and music concerts and i seldom ever spoke of my private social life to others.. i know many jws, including elders, that drank excessively but that wasn't considered too big a deal..

  My elder buddy and I would frequent strip clubs when we wanted to. I did that once when away on business. 204 for a lap dance I considered great value as you were allowed to touch - though not down below of course

  R Rated movies on a very regular basis

  I know many JWs, including elders, that drank excessively but that wasn't considered too big a deal. ABSOLUTELY - 1 bottle of Gin per week no problem. The Service overseer at the time made sure he had a big twist of lemon in his Gin and Tonic.

  Oral sex with my wife.

  Strongly suggest but make EVRYTHING A CONSCIENCE MATTER - it will free them from all legal liability.

  What Watchtower Got Wrong with Their Child Molestation Policy

  by Billy the Ex-Bethelite in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  in the style of stephen lett, i'm trying to come up with an exhaustive, enumerated list (without his crazy eyebrows, goofy facial expressions, and nutty voice).

  what watchtower has gotten wrong isn't just their 2 witness rule.

  it goes much deeper into other failures of jw dogma that has allowed this injustice and others to flourish in their organization.

  OK I have to be crude here because it has pissed me off for > 20 years. What business do elders have in the bedroom of a married couple. NONE,. ZERO. It may seem off topic but it is not. Elders pry into matters that are not their concern, but dont get involved when they absolutely need to -as in protecting children. Surely to God, if a proeprly married couple engage in mutual oral sex or similar - how the hell is that the elders business?. And yet they will invoke the two witness rule and not protect a child -TOTALLY MIND BLOWING.

  Watchtower's Billion Dollars of Property Cannot Be Sold until Outcome of Conti Appeal

  by Dogpatch in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  30 minutes ago i just got off the phone with some important players in this case, and some things were relayed to me concerning a lot of details of the outcome of the last two days of court.

  i am passing this on.

  cynthia hampton, one of the main players in the candace conti case (and a close friend of 28 years), just informed me of a further, far more powerful move by the state of california against the watch tower bible and tract society of new york, inc.. by order of the superior court of the state of california - county of alameda (see documents below), until the watch tower's appeal, which won't begin until august 13th and will take up to two years to settle due to due process of law, has forbidden the watch tower to sell any more of its $1 billion in assets in the borough of brooklyn until the appeals case is finished, to assure they won't shelter their monies in the light of this most huge and devastating sexual abuse scandal ever to hit the watch tower society, and perhaps any other single-victim lawsuit.

  I do not wish to throw a spanner in the works, but British tax laws are very favorable to religions/charities. I know for certain "assets" have been moved over there for the last 10 years. I admit you can not move real estate. They will survive but will have to morph. I still think they will make everything a "conscience " issue and move to be less controlling. It is one of their few ways forward.
