Thank you For that comment. I dated a Man who was a JW. And was severely emotionally, physically and sexually abused as a child. Watching someone try and make sense of all the fear, control, and anguish they endured , now as an adult, was the most difficult thing I have ever done. And it didnt even happened to me. The fear and guilt associated with this organization are beyond reproach.
Hearing about all the specifics regarding this organizations policies regarding this subject broke my heart. Children are innocent, easily taken advantage of, and deserve protection from this.

I am just now sorting through how being in a relationship someone who had been through all that has affected my mind and self. It is/was really difficult. There are things I will never internalize, such as how love, family and severe hurt and distrust can feel like the same thing, if the people in your childhood who were supposed to protect you never did.
I would LOVE to try and give information to people, or help in any way I could to prevent what happened to my ex happening to any one else.

Thanks for the forum to speak freely

@John A. Clark THINK ABOUT IT ..MAN THOUGHT THE EARTH WAS FLAT..THEN THEY HAD A MAN NAMED CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS WHO SAILED THE WORLD AND PROVED IT TO BE WORLD AND NOT FLAT..IF MAN HAD READ THE BIBLE THEY WOULD HAVE ALREADY KNOWN THAT iN THE BOOK OF JOB IT STATED THE EARTH WAS IN THE SHAPE OF A SPHERE-WHICH MEANS ROUND LIKE A BALL AND NOT FLAT..SO YES YOU CAN BELIEVE THE BIBLE OVER HISTORY BOOKS

@dennis thurman YOUR RIGHT YOU CANT SERVE TWO MASTERS..IUF YOUR DOING WRONG LIKE BREAKING BIBLE PRINCEPALS OR CEASERS LAW (LIKE:MURDER,RAPE,ABUSE...) THEN YOU CAN BEST BELIEVE JEHOVAH HOLY SPIRIT ISNT WITH YOU UNTIL YOU REPENT AND IF ITS ABUSE OF A CHILD OR MURDER THEN YOU HAVE TO STILL TURN YOURSELF IN TO THE POLICE AFTER TALKING TO THE ELDERS ITS THE ONLY WAY TO GETTHE HOLY SPIRIT BACK

@Hagar
THE BIBLE DOES WARN OF SHEEPS IN WOVLES CLOTHING JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF MADE THAT STATEMENT IN THE BIBLE…BUT NOW ASK YOURSELF IF YOUR READING YOUR BIBLE AND PRAYING DAILY THEN YOU HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT…AT THE SAME TIME I DO AGREE WITH YOU THAT WOLVES ARE IN ALL RELIGIONS THAT IS WHY THE APOSTLE PAUL HIMSELF SAID BE CAREFULL OF THOSE WE MINGLE WITH IN THE CONGREGATION..REMEMBER WE MUST NEVER ALLOW SOMEONE OR SATAN TO PULL US AWAY FROM JEHOVAH GOD

@ME
I AM SORRY FIRST OF ALL FOR WHAT HAPPEN TO THE SISTERS…THE BROTHER WAS PROABLY COUNSEL JUST NOT IN FRONT OF YOU ALL…AS FOR THE OLICE IF YOUR PARENTS DINT NOTIFIED THEM YOU CANT BRING THAT AGAINST THE ELDERS..I AM A PARENT AND IF SOMEONE TOUCH MY DAUGHTER THE WRONG WAY, THEN I CAN PROMISE BEFORE I WOULD TELL THE ELDERS ABPOUT THAT BROTHER THE POLICE WOULD HAVE AUTOMATICALLY HAVE BEEN KNOWN…AS FOR THE PART OF LEAVING THW WORLD OUT OF IT THE BROTHERS CANT PROTECT ANOTHER BROTHER FOR HURTING A MINOR…THE COURTS WOULD PUNISH HIM..AND THE CONGREGATION WOULD BE NOTIFIED THAT THIS BROTHER IS NO LONGER A BROTHER, BUT THEY WOULDNT KNOW FOR WHAT REASON

IF THE ELDERS are WATCHING over Gods FLOCK,why in THE HELL didn’t they protect them by using CAESARS LAW,which God put here for our protection.THEY are just spineless puppets of the watchtower.They arent interested in the truth.Our conscience tells us to protect innocent children/If yoy have a heart leave this corrupt society.Money and control is all it is about. 35 yr ex member. not DF or DA,just found out their past.
