And the blatant glorification and adoration of the Faithful slave / GB???!!!!
Certainly no "discretion" in there!
"your faithful and discreet slave, provides increasing light"
the song is supposedly about marveling at god's creation but instead includes over the top adoration of the elders, conventions, and family worship.
lol getting a brother who sounds like a wannabe josh groban only adds to the cheesiness.

the latest research article published at ajwrb estimates the number of jehovah's witnesses who have died from following or being coerced to follow watchtower's blood policy.
the numbers are staggering.

Well said steve2!!!
I agree
continuation from part 2 (which is here: https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5769422536966144/short-life-story-part-2).
so im 25, married, and my life seems to have ended when it should be in it's prime.
i have only two non jw friends.
Thanks PE!
Really well written. Thanks for your brutal nonesty.
I agree with LUHE above. I'm sure that the witness life causes stresses that manifest as OCD in many people. Obsessive conduct comes from high anxiety, and the society is a master at producing that!

part 1 in here: https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5961287718666240/short-life-story-part-1.
so im 19, i decided to shut up and put all my doubts about god even existing to the back of my mind and just go along with it.
im sure things will be explained eventually, all i need is to humble myself and do more in "the truth" right?.
Thanks Pale!
Really appreciate you sharing your story.
Looking forward to more instalments.
there is a plethora of convention photos on my instagram this morning.
(a lot of my jw friends have forgotten i'm on their followers list) .
smiling faces standing next to convention posters with comments like 'nope, i'm not giving up.
GREAT illustration magnum!!
I wish I could give you two thumbs up likes! (But with an arm cut off, I'm only able to give you one!😉)

in a rare action taken by the senior leadership of the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints, a disciplinary council was held for general authority seventy james j. hamula, and he has been excommunicated from the lds church..
I just checked lds.org and there are dozens and dozens of his talks and sermons there!
Just use the search field and put his name in.
He was indeed someone high up!
