I’d like to know under what facts they would not consider this sexual immorality. Like if the stripper wasn’t really into it so you didn’t feel you got your money’s worth?

In previous decades, when someone was disfellowshipped, they were told their time would be 6 months. Now it’s a full year?
Why did that change from 6 mo to a year? and are they getting more ppl to come back with the increased time? With the less members staying in the org, you would think they want to lower the “jail time “
Also are there any other religions that gives you months or years of time out, if you commit a sin, even if you actually want to come back?
Also any former elders here? Why is there a standard set time for everyone? And why can they reject someone’s letter who wants to come back? Don’t they need more members ?

Why the heck is WT trying to assert the clergy-penitent privilege to allow elders to NOT report to authorities?
Exhibit A: (State of Delaware v. Laurel Delaware Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses, Joel Mulchansingh and William Perkins)[https://law.justia.com/cases/delaware/superior-court/2016/n14c-05-122-mmj-0.html).
Relevant quote from the case, the JW crew being the defendants:
Does that sound like the organization is 'endeavoring' to report abuse? They are 'endeavoring' to legally NOT report abuse. That's how the hell they're trying to comply with secular laws.
I'm sorry for the language, but these *%&$*()*$ are writing articles to the general JW with the obvious intent of making it look like they're TRYING to report abuse and they're not. They're simply not.

To be clear:
The new rules now allow elders (para. 15) to go to the authorities once an allegation of CSA has been made without fear of retaliation by headquarters. AND two witnesses aren't needed to do this (even though two witnesses are still needed for judicial action🙄). In addition to this, emphasis is given that the reporting party will not bring reproach on jehovahs name. Para. 14- "But what if the report is about someone who is a part of the congregation and the matter then becomes known in the community? Should the Christian who reported it feel that he has brought reproach on God’s name? No. The abuser is the one who brings reproach on God’s name."

Please add this new light:

And it took how many years for their "Guardians of the Doctrine" to realize things weren’t right with this issue?

is it ok for a JW fireman to rescue people from a burning church?
This is how JW's constantly think..... get real folks...

It also looks like it’s proof that the Canadian lawyer for the Watchtower perjured himself as an officer of the court to their Supreme Court

Re: Auxiliary Pioneering in March 2019
Dear Brothers:
We are aiming for an all-time peak in auxiliary pioneers during March 2019, which will be announced to the congregation in the Announcements and Reminders (S-147) form for January 2019. How can you and your fellow elders assist?
During January, arrange to meet with your group. (Where a group is cared for by a ministerial servant, the body of elders should assign an elder to meet with the group servant and the group.) In the meeting, kindly and tactfully build enthusiasm for this campaign. Share practical suggestions to help the publishers plan ahead.
This March campaign offers you an excellent opportunity to give even greater attention to your assignment. (ks10 chap. 2 pars. 22, 23) Warmly commend the brothers for the efforts they make to increase their share in the ministry.
Thank you very much for giving this matter your prompt attention. We are confident that, through your loving efforts and Jehovah’s blessing, this initiative will increase praise to his name. Please accept our warm brotherly affection and greetings.
Your brothers,
😄 All elders
Circuit overseers

There was a new announcement at the meeting this week.
Org will accept JCB credit card for online donation, 
I’m fed up with org’s soliciting money.
And there was another announcement.
Members will not allowed to use “second auditorium” during a meeting without elder’s permission.
(Second auditorium is a small room attached to a main auditorium, sometimes used by people 
who don’t feel well or  baby keep crying) 
I always use “second auditorium” during meetings, so this new announcement made me feel 
extremely uncomfortable. I’m thinking about stop going to meetings . It is not loving  Christian 
organization.

you think an oral review is cheating
you think cart witnessing is cheating
you can provide explanations of most of the prophecies in Daniel and revelations from memory.
you have fond memories of Shasta lemon lime and cheese danishes.
you can rhyme giv'n and heav'n, and can sing about molested bees with a straight face.
you (rightfully) believe that Caleb and Sophia is an unholy abomination.
Anything I missed?

@Space Merchant  True Christian JW's are supposed to 'quit being fashioned after this system of things' and put away national identities and embrace the JW culture above all.
There is NO place for such nationalistic pride within the JW community. But that is for another discussion.
Meanwhile... no skirts above the knee for sisters!!!
AND while we are at it.... those tight pants... FORBIDDEN!!!
"You must be perfect". or else.... sisters will gossip about you as in the illustration above.
Welcome to the mentally warped world of JW fashion and life. Hypocrisy at its best.

Interesting quote from his book Crisis of Conscience:
"Herein lies a paradox. Despite their intense activity in door-to-door witnessing, most people actually know little about Jehovah’s Witnesses aside from their position on certain issues of conscience. They have heard of their uncompromising stand in refusing to accept blood transfusions, their refusal to salute any flag or similar emblem, their firm objection to performance of military service, their opposition to participation in any political activity or function. Those familiar with legal cases know that they have taken some fifty cases to the Supreme Court of the United States in defense of their freedom of conscience, including their right to carry their message to people of other beliefs even in the face of considerable opposition and objections. In lands where constitutional liberties protect them, they are free to exercise such rights without hindrance. In other countries they have experienced severe persecution, arrests, jailing, mobbing, beatings, and official bans prohibiting their literature and preaching. How, then, is it the case that today any person among their members who voices a personal difference of viewpoint as to the teachings of the organization is almost certain to face judicial proceedings and, unless willing to retract, is liable for disfellowshipment?"

Notice how the shading in the picture goes from blue on the left to a warm yellow-gold on the right.
One could make the argument that those people with a blue background have a colder relationship with God, or else are lacking light; whereas those in the gold have stepped out into the warm sunlight of God's favor. In this way, they don't have to say that they outright disapprove of the more "worldly" dress code, they can just hint that God disapproves of it.
WT engages in a lot of subliminal messaging. It is very sinister.

"Inaccurate points" = LYING (aka PERJURY) on the part of Jehovah's WItnesses to none other than the Supreme Court itself.
It can't get more "officially LYING" than that.

Jehovah's Witness Organization Redefines Shunning to Falsely.mp4 Every JW visiting this page should MORALLY comment below and publicly state that this JW Lawyer is LYING through his teeth to the Canadian Supreme Court.
If you don't, YOU participate in this gross sin. Because you ALL KNOW this is a false statement.
Remember as well that this JW Lawyer is also an Officer of the Court.
What the courts do not know is that JW's consider outright lying in court a part of "theocratic warfare" just like Muslims do. So it is a virtue to them.

SMH.
