  This is a highly interesting WT material (70 pages),
  that prepares JW's for child custody court cases...
  
  Some statements are shocking, there are many
  instructions, how JW's must lie in court to appear
  "normal" (for example check page 50)
  
  Thanx to Jourles! Its a MUST READ!

  Hello izobcenec

  I just picked this up and started reading it this morning before I started work.

  I thought I would never see anything like this but then again ... this is the JW leadership.

  What on page 50 is really unique? It looks to me like part of the list of source material where htey have taken quotes out of context.

  Or are you taking page 50 in the Acrobat Reader which brings me to page 43 which talks about "Evidence of Young People". That page is a little unsettling.

  I felt sick reading that.

  Have you been exposed to different religious views since youth? How has this affected you?

  Learned to hate anyone not a witness be tolerant and oppose independent thinking appreciate divergence of opinions; while being forced to get baptized at a young age due to peer pressure and fear of being labeled weak personally choosing indocrinations teachings of Jehovah's Witnesses, have learned to view anyone who has left the Jehovah's Witnesses as evil and to shun them even if they were members of my family or close friends respect others' right of choice.

  How has association with Jehovah's Witnesses affected your life?

  Comment on positive value of truth as opposed to the fact you you're depressed because of the current pressure to do more, more, more else be labled weak and have the majority of other young ones in the hall ignore you less they be labeled weak as well; have a purpose in life to devote your life to a publishing corporation and then wondering why you have no pension to fall back on when the end doesn't come; take interest in other people so long as they're aren't weak; good morals like plently of people who aren't JWs; obey the law like plently of people who aren't JWs, etc.

  Do you go from house-to-house? Describe your reaction.

  Educational value of social contact; learn how to meet people, strike up a conversation and expect them to accept my viewpoint as coming from God else they are birdfood reason on a variety of topics. At an early date learned about the many different views but still birdfood people have. Forcing me into Meeting friends from school people at doors made me shy and gave my self asteem a blow overcame shyness and lack of confidence. Ease of dealing with people is valuable now in my P.O's cleaning business as well as frequent religious and rare social activities.

  Is it not depressing when you are rejected at a door?

  Yes. No. We have something too good to be true to share with those who are depressed and more open to listen to our lies want to listen. Each individual has the right to our his opinion. If rejected, we can leave and laugh how they will be birdfood find someone who also doesn't does want to talk a few hours drive hopefully doors away.

  Are not three religous meetings (plus assemblys, field service, family study etc etc) a week boring?

  Yes. No. Meetings are dull as ditchwater interesting. Participate in Theocratic Ministry School because if you don't you're weak and learn how to talk to unmarked people. Associate with other unmarked young people at meetings. Make field ministry social and dull recreational arrangements.

  How did you do in school? Did you have any problems? Did you get along with other students? Did your association with Jehovah's Witnesses hinder your education?

  All the f***ing time. I was a social outcast from the moment I got there. Wasn't allowed to make friends with anyone there who didn't have an interest in the JWs. Ended up living a double life getting myself pregnant, smoking and stealing stuff my parents wouldn't let me have. Not at all; kept me out of trouble with the drug scene, immoality, illegitimate children, shoplifting, etc. Helped me take a mature view of the need for an education so I could ignore all the advice my career's and pioneer do something useful and dull as hell interesting with my life.

  Ignored One.
