Jehovah Witnesses watching TV tonight

JH

The active JW's watching TV tonight will be surprised when they see themselves in the spotlight. How do you think the average JW will react when watching the program? Will they think that it's all lies, or do you think they will believe a good part of it?

the good active ones won't watch it, my ex-mother in law (stunch JW) unplugged the TV when a program was viewed in her country and she refused to let any members of her household (all non-JW's or df'ed) to watch it.

My mother watched the Dateline show last May and said she knew it was all true. She said she hoped some people would "wake up". She is very elderly, but pretty sharp too.

Halfway through the fifth estate... wow... it's really really good.... this is going to rock the WT world for sure... no doubt about it... it's well done... it's very straightforward and it's very credible... wonderful stuff

foreword

I'm sure it's good, man who would have thought?

I asked my neighbour if I could watch it and she said she didn't care about the witnesses. I said it's not for the witnesses but against.....thinking she might want to watch it then...she didn't budge....I guess some really don't care..lol.

I'll just have to read up on it.

Like all good brainwashed ones, most will say it was all the work of apostates. But if even one person sees the truth, its worth it.

And what was shown on TV tonight, was only the tip of the iceberg. We would need a program like that every month. Maybe then things would change.

For any JW's who lurk here, if you watched this show & don't talk to your elders about change - SHAME ON YOU!!!!!

Somebody I know let a few persons in his congregation know of tonight's CBC program. The reaction? Read excepts from the following:

Original message:

The reply from one sister?

Notice how the word "Apostasy" creeps into this kind of information? The typical JW is discouraged from thinking independantly from the Organization, or of thinking critically of it altogether. Their minds would simply shut down at the very thought..
