Yeah, I know what you mean.
Jehovah's Hearsay Account Repeaters while more accurate doesn't have that same culty ring to it.
the term jehovah’s witnesses sounded weird to me even when i was in that cult.
why does god need witnesses to prove his existence?
there is no need for anyone to create a movement called “suns witnesses” or “moons witnesses” – in order to prove its existence and glorify it, because the sun and moon are evident to every species on earth.

one of us on netflix.
this is a documentary on hasidism.
i wish one day a similar documentary will be made for watchtower.
Agree. Very eye opening fascinating insight into another scary high-control religion. I really felt for those brave people who got themselves out at great personal cost. Also hard to believe that these groups operate in plain sight under the protections of religious freedom. Where does personal rights and freedoms fit into this picture?
Happy birthday
quite possibly the most cringeworthy thing i've seen them do yet.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tk88rstv6o.
it could be argued that all jws are weird.
.
i’m referring to really weird odd witnesses.. most of the oddballs that i remember were elders..
Weirdos?
Oh wow, so many weirdos so little time.

Truly awful! This song could played in JCs to torture someone into confessing.
Aaaaagh make it stop.

And "the end" is around the corner?
Yeah, sure it is 😉.
this tragic story has been developing over the last couple of days in venezuela.
there is a mixture of reports and accounts coming in..... two jehovah's witnesses (and fleshly sisters) aged 71 and 65, where found murdered.
a 26 year male suspect has been arrested.. in the apartment where the two where found dead, the words "death to witnesses" (“muerte a los testigos”) had been scrawled onto one of the walls.. he killed them because they expelled him from the jehovah's witnesses - canal de noticia, nov 28, 2017. .
Venezuela is a violent, crime ridden hell hole.
sir julian huxley (one of the great pillars of modern neo-darwinism) may be a symbol of people who feel god is a burden because he wrote: “the god hypothesis .
is becoming an intellectual and moral burden on our thought.
" therefore, he concluded that "we must construct something to take its place.
You know, as a JW the obligation that was imposed upon me by a heartless demanding religion to "save" people from themselves was such a burden.
I also see now it was totally unnecessary because at the end of the day people are gonna believe what they believe for all sorts of reasons in all sorts of circumstances regardless of what I think they should believe. I wasn't helping anybody not even myself I was just wasting time.
All I can say is three cheers for cog diss.
If it wasn't for those extremely uncomfortable feelings that eventually became unbearably uncomfortable feelings I would never have woken up.
