ATTENTION: Angela Montgomery, the JW "Mommy Molester" found guilty this Friday afternoon of 6 counts of child rape
by AndersonsInfo inandrea montgomery was found guilty as charged on each of the 6 charges of child rape of her biological son, alan von webb, the oldest boy of four children.
today, many media people were there in the courtroom for the first time since the trial started.. the verdict came in about 3:30 p.m. which took time for the judge to read, etc., so i learned about it at 4 p.m. when the father of the four children, now young adults, called us.
one of the children has down's syndrome, and it's difficult to imagine, but he also was raped since a child by his mother.

Very well done!
Sadly most jw's that watch Nightline, will just change the channel. Like the good sheeple have beenwarned about all this made up apostate stuff!
On the good but bad side. It may bring others forward, and help save others from this nightmare!

Who leaves first, the husband or wife?
by snugglebunny inwhen it comes to a simple matter of no longer believing the teachings of jw's, it appears to me that it's more common for the husband to make the first move to leave the religion.

Talk to a layer before leaving, when you leave the house, you give up lots of rights, that you may regret. When you move out, it's easy for the remaining spouse to claim abandonedment, and the can of worms is not easy to unopen! Just because the spouse says go, dose not mean you have to!

What would happen if life was found elsewhere?
by HowTheBibleWasCreated insee jws have said time and again jesus died once for all time... a quote from hebrews.
okay rule out humn-like aliens what about animals plants and microbes... i once had a hot fight with an elder when i still believed that here was no reason to doubt alien animals etc.
yet not based on any wt article witnesses reject this often.. lets suppose say in a month microbes are found on ceres (i doubt it will happen but let's roll with it) they are living as much as our cells are and reporduce... okay what would mother say in the magazines when millions of jehovah's witnesses demand to know why jehovah created microbes on a dwarf planet?.

Not much really. The Borg would just come out and explain that what they had had to say about life elsewhere was just in error. And explain that the bible is silent on the subject, but that they had just felt that it made since, being what the bible teaches about life here, and things that had happened, back in the garden.

A Question for Underground Apostates, How Many Are There?
by Village Idiot inwhen i first came to this forum i was of the belief that those of us who were still in due to family reasons were few in numbers perhaps one in a thousand in the jws.
soon i came to the realization that there were many more.
we have dozens of posters here who are mentally out but still in.

In the congregations I am stuck in has around 100 pub's. I count around 6, that are in so called "Good Standing" yet do nothing, and half of these only come now and then. They neve take part in the meetings, or fs. I am in the coldest congregation, I have ever been in. It has ran off more people, in its history, with made up rules, and extremely harsh treatment, of even little old sisters!! My brother in law was counting, ones that had been miss treated while he was growing up. Close to 30. He was dfed, for saying he went to an R rated movie, then admiting he lied, just to fit in with classmates! Yet he is Hardcore jw elder! -

Why are so many Elders and Elders deleted so angry at the Flock?
by JWCartPusher inhas anyone else experienced the wrath of elders and ex-elders on innocent rank-and-file dubs?
what are these power hungry men and their wives so mad about?
where is the love we were promised when those witnesses spent hours indoctrinating us about the spiritual paradise of witnesses we would be joining?

Years ago, almost no one spoke up to the CO's about anything. Times have changed, and many will speak up, and if the CO, starts checking, and fins it to be true, elders get in hot water. The may or may not know who talked, but they let it be kniwn, their mad! -

There used to be this great truck stop in Bend Or, named Jake's. I moved there from Atlaanta. I made an almost nonstop drive, for the almost 3,000 miles. I got there at 7pm Friday, and set up till 2am talking with the friends, I was going to stay with for a few weeks.
I woke up at 5an to excited to sleep. Showered, got dredressed, went out to explore. I was so hungury. I had barely eaten, to save money on the trip. Well Jake's was busy, so I knew the food would be good!
I ordered a large Ham & Cheese Omelet, with hash browns, biscuits & gravy. I had no ideal what i was in for. The omelet was made with 8 large eggs,! 1/2 pound of cheese. 4 large biscuts, covered with gravy, a large plate of hash browns, also covered with gravy.
It was so good, but I was only able to eat half of it. Packed the rest for later!
That's my favorite breakfast! Both in memory, and what I like!

New "donation" arrangement begins to FAIL
by Tech49 inso here we are, almost a year into the "new" congregation donation arrangement.
and its beginning, as was predicted, to fail miserably, and to have direct negative consequences on the poor sheep.. let me give you a little experience, directly from our congregation of about 80 publishers.
back in may, after reading the letter about the "new" arrangement, the elder body decided to "donate" the extra funds on hand to wt, as directed.

Not Seating at the Same Place in All Meetings.
by Tempest in a Teacup ini haven't heard this one in a while but it has been on my mind lately.
maybe it's because i'm noticing that these days people at the kh are going the extra mile to vary their seating places in all meetings.. having skipped meetings for a few weeks, i'm wondering if there has been a talk/article about that recently.
that's one of the most laughable rules they made and i never felt bound by it.
