  Since learning TTATT

  by Blackfalcon98 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  so, i was reading combating cult mind control....and i was just thinking: since i've been doing research and learning about the false doctrines of the wtbs and others who are still asleep.

  the more i accept that all is not right, the more i see the depression that many in the org.

  are going through, the more i see the "human" side of things, the more i compare the average uber dub to the average mainstream christian.....the more i recognize how this cannot be jah's organazation.

  Hey Falcon, am in a similar situation as you are & can relate to how you feel. Just discovered TTATT earlier this year & realized that we have been fed with a lot of spiritual bullsh*t! Am trying to fade now before I lose my sanity...

  One of my main problems with the WT: A very irresponsible organization

  by Hidden-Window in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of my main problems with the watch tower and, more specifically, with the governing body is the level of irresponsibility seen when lives of people are involved and their unapologetical attitude when people suffer due to their absurd policies.. how many people were imprisoned or killed for refusing to perform civil service in exchange for military service?.

  we do not know, but it does not matter, because the society does not even apologize for the harm their blinking light caused.. how many people died or contracted illnesses due to the prohibition of vaccines?.

  we might never know, but an apology is not on the menu.. how many people died for refusing (or disfellowshipped for accepting) fractions of blood when it was against the rules?.

  yesterday local needs was this theme.

  are you spiritually grown up.. summary: if you are between 18-35 and not ms or elder, you lazy idiot are like a child.

  at this age, especially if you grew up in "da trooooth" you have no issue with jw.org doctrine right (how do you know...?
