Beth Sarim - “…They cant lose anymore free labor or money/donations.”

I suspect it’s more to hide the lack of membership growth.

“Growth = God’s blessing”, after all.

Shunned without any formal removal from the group.

Well, there used to be a distinction, though a subtle one. I'm considered inactive. So when Jehovah's Witnesses see me, they might smile, offer a casual "hello," and then keep walking. They don't stop for a real conversation.

If I were disfellowshipped, though, they typically wouldn’t even offer that. They’d just look past me like I wasn’t there.

That said, there's been a recent shift. JWs are now allowed to offer a casual greeting to disfellowshipped individuals at the Kingdom Hall. Whether this change applies outside the Hall, I’m not sure.

But even so, what is a “greeting” if it comes with no intention of opening a conversation? Isn't a greeting, by nature, a social invitation, however brief, to engage? The JW version, in this context, feels more like a scripted formality. It's “hello” and “goodbye” in the same breath. It looks polite on the surface, but lacks sincerity; it’s politeness in form, not in substance.

That doesn't look good.

People who dont want to volunteer free labor,, time and even their money. They cant make that known. Doesn't look good for the Borg.

If this is the video with the 2 guys, I can honestly say I'm floored by it.

1. It's infantile.

2. It's completely the opposite of how Jesus behaved. Even HE heard out Satan in the garden, spoke to him, etc.

3. The fact that the JW guy comes off like an unreasonable toddler is not lost on me, while the supposed "Apostate!" is level-headed and logical.

4. The real head turner: When the JW states that if his soon-to-be-ex-friend doesn't "turn himself in to his Elders, than I will!" Then turns and storms off like a toddler. This is the same shit the Nazi's trained into the children while they were growing up in the Hitler Youth. They were trained to turn in not only friends, but also any family who dared to speak negatively about the Fuhrer or the Party to the Gestapo.

It's wild how truly "culty" this segment was. It will absolutely wake some people up. Their minds will simply explode viewing the stupidity of it all. There's been talk of PIMO's high up planting these types of ideas into video segments, and I can almost believe it! If so, I congratulate them and say, "Bravo!"

There's PIMOs everywhere.

You just never know.

I hate this sect.

EVERYONE on various Ex-Dub platforms is UPSET-TO-PISSED OFF about this info that WT is recently spewing out. The following is my take on no doubt WHY they went this HEINOUS route⬇

#️⃣1️⃣➡ The GB was very recently SUBPOENED by the federal courts regarding their policies and practices, which are harmful and hurtful to their members. Not only are they being required to appear in court, but also these personnel: The Writing Committee, The Legal Department, The Business Department, The Helpers, AND ANTMO himself. I was informed that it would be between 60 - 100 individuals from WT who are scheduled to be there.

#️⃣2️⃣➡ There was a LETTER-WRITING CAMPAIGN established as far back as sometime in 2024. Differing groups of Ex-Dubs [in addition to PIMOs, PIMQs, & VZs (Visitors: Persons who used to study but declined to get baptized)] wrote info to many of the world's governments, informing their officials about The Borg's policies and practices, specifically: CSAs, Shunnings, & The Blood Ban. WT might've discovered this and made a concerted effort to tighten the reins on the current followers, INSTILLING FEAR TACTICS for them to adhere.

This cultporation is tremendously desperate to hold on to the present members, regardless and irregardless if families and close friendships are DISMANTLED/DESTROYED. They are UNHINGED ‼☝😡

Furthermore, the cultporation acquainting faders to SATAN---SIMILAR to when LETT a few R.Cs ago made the very uncouth remark➡ "BABIES ARE ENEMIES OF GOD!". W.T.H.?!

The leadership of this cultporation is HATEFUL/HATEFILLED men, who have NOTHING POSITIVE/ALWAYS NEGATIVE to utter. They have the mindset-mentality that all is "DOOM & GLOOM" and, IMPHO, most likely DON'T LIKE NOR RESPECT their parishioners anyway, either way, neither way. 😫

What Lett said was:

“Now, if we think about it, we're not born as friends of God because we're born as sinful offspring of Adam. Actually, when we think about it, we're born as enemies of God. Sometimes you'll hear people say of a little baby, ‘Look at that little angel,’ but more accurate would be to say, ‘Look at that little enemy of God.’ Now, of course we love that little baby and it's now not hopeless because our loving creator has made reconciliation with him within the reach of everyone. We can become a good friend of God and that close relationship with Jehovah will become our most valuable possession.”
