what diversity.

what corporate synergy.

haha!

Love it!

While the faces may reflect a multi-national, multi-racial profile, they are still very "black and white" in their attire and thinking! Perfectly reflects a cult image.

After watching A&E Leah Remini on Jehovah Witnesses I am going to stop hiding behind my Avatar

by Still Totally ADD in

just got done watching this program and what impress me the most was the bravery of those x-witnesses to sit there on national tv and tell everyone how the wt.

cult affected them.

no hidden faces, no avatar names and no disguise.

A Cult Tactic: Removing Guilt By Dehumanising Others

by pale.emperor in

in the real world, very few parents would disown their own children simply because they read a magazine that told them to do it.

very few people would forever completely ignore their own parents because an elder got up on a platform one day and announced that they no longer follow the same religion as you.. in the real world it just doesn't happen.

and yet, for 8 million jehovah's witnesses it's very a normal part of their world to treat "other people" differently than they'd treat each other.

This was a fantastic opening post PE!
Wonderfully written!

Thank you for sharing!

The JW News Facebook page and SaySorry.org have joined to shine a light on Jehovah's Witnesses and Watch Tower

saysorry.org and the jw news facebook page, with 16k followers, have joined to 'shine a light' on the watch tower society and those leaders within the jehovah's witness organization that disregard or violate the laws of the land.

it is also our hope that the governing body of jehovah's witnesses will "say sorry" by acknowledging their errors and by adopting a culture of acting lawfully, ethically and in a socially responsible manner.. the jw news facebook page was launched in 2011 and has recently undergone a major timeline clean up to remove copyrighted material from the past three years.. facebook.com/jwnews.

Do you know MORE about the bible NOW?

by stuckinarut2 in

how many of us would confidently say that we know more about the bible now that we have ceased being jws?.

i know that i was proud to say that i was a "serious bible student" when a jw.

we boasted about how much we learned each week, and how we shared bible truths with the community.. but it's only after leaving, and really delving into a broad range of research, that i realise how little i actually knew!.

Great quote Phizzy!

I have always loved that one since waking up - it is SO true!

If a human committed the acts that are attributed to Jehovah in the Bible, we would rightly lock them up in prison!
