We've seen this, or have heard of it....
A tragic death happens - often it's even CAUSED by Watchtower edicts, like shunning or "no blood" policy...
And the brainwashed - or brain-dead - Witnesses resort to yammering Watchtower propaganda - "At least he/she died before 'Armageddon', so maybe he'll / she'll have a chance at being 'resurrected'..."
We've all seen the insane level of hypocrisy within the Watchtower Society... I've several examples in mind, wherein the Witness parent shunned a Witness child, leading to the child's suicide or indirectly to his/her death, and then the Witness - make that WitLess - parent stands there at the funeral mouthing that "At least he/she died before 'Armageddon', so maybe he'll / she'll have a chance at being 'resurrected'..." line of B.S. ....
What can one say to block that self-congratulatory blather?? How can one state the REALITY of the sitation in a manner that would most effectively WAKE UP the 'active' JW parent to the extent of their destructive behavior???
And YES - I do understand that some JWs are too enthralled by the Watchtower Society to ever wake up...
Which brings up another point...
In my opinion, when a JW parent brutally rejects their child, that means that most - or all - of their parental love - their instinct to nurture their own offspring - has been TOTALLY OVER-WRITTEN by the Watchtower Society's edicts on shunning...
At that point, again in my opinion, that parent has completely abandoned ANY rights to future assistance, comfort, or shelter from the rejected child. ..... Just my opinion; but I DID put that into effect in my OWN life...
