    Watchtower & Religious Freedom - A Double Standard?
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPlhXI812yc
    "We examine the July 2009 Awake magazine article, "Is It Wrong To Change Your Religion?",
    and the double standards applied to potential converts, verses Jehovah's Witnesses who are
    disfellowshipped or who conscientiously choose to leave the Watchtower Organization."

    Yea, I like how they put one thing in the Showcase Washtowel or the Asleep! to show the public, and the total opposite in the Kool-Aid washtowel, the Kingdumb Misery, or the Keep Yourselves in God's Tyranny book for the flock to obey. The last I knew, they were tightening on people that are disfellowshipped in a family, or on kicking children out of homes if they are not baptized or if they get disfellowshipped.

    Well at least they acknowledge that the BIBLE says it's wrong to prevent someone from changing their religion. NOT the WTS!

    The WTS IS not the Bible.

    They seem to always talk about "loyalty to the organization", never to Christ's teachings.

    I once brought out to a sister that some disfellowshipped people commit suicide and she said, "Well I would to if I were disfellowshipped. What would you have to live for? There is no life outside of Jehovah's Organization."

    UGH!

    Well as long as you believe that, you'll never leave. I'm sure some JWs would love to believe that everyone who leaves the WTS is so miserable they'd die. As long as they're more miserable than THEY are, they're somehow vindicated.

    I was more miserable as a practicing Witness much of the time. I kept wondering what was wrong with me that I found no joy in the teachings, in particular.
