  Types attracted to the sect known as jehovahs witnesses.

  by atomant in

  2. experiences

  l have observed the types of people attracted to the sect are many times unbalanced,unstable,emotionally insecure types.the jdubs seem to home in like vulchers circling the prey ,preying on the vulnerables.they tried it on me when my father who was an elder died.promising that if you become a dub you will one day see him again.l said how can you promise that when you keep making false misleading predictions.l was wondering if others have observed this phenomenon.

  I was a college educated, single, stable, non-addict convert who already didn't celebrate xmas (but didn't mind others holidays) due to commercialism and pagan roots and used Jerusalem Bible / Yahweh. I never believed in trinity either so those points resonated as well as explanation of 144,000 and second death. I was/am very social and was recovering from divorce and wanting to see family again vs. reincarnation ideas. It took me a long time to dunk as I hated treatment of women...but swallowed to make a decision and not be perennial fence-sitter. I figured I would figure it out and felt more comfortable and had more answers than most religions explored up till then (still young) . I do think being very attached to family and wanting assured promise to be reunited was strong lure....and I don't want to let that go. Also, dating a DF person who wanted to eventually get back and bring me with him helped push me in that direction though I thought i was being careful and checking all out. Internet would've come in handy during that time. Peace

  today has been a horrible day.

  what began as a day of joy finding out that one of my lifelong friends had her baby, turned into a nightmare when her brother called me to let me know she had passed away after birth.

  i was in shock and didn't ask how.

  Welcome! Yes, Internet tripping to seek help acter elders and friends could not sufficiently answer my quesrion led me here too...initially it was UN issue. I was in shock then sucked it in as husband and elder and MS friends tried to encourage me to stay true for kids and Jehovah....2013-4 changes led to second time I ventured online and allowed myslef to "slip" and read online....quite the rabbit hole.

  2. suggestions

  there's too many bk cult threads and operatives on here lately.

  mind you 0 should be the figure at any rate.. here's a simple suggestion.

  you can sniff out a bk cult adherent by flagging certain keywords they are guaranteed to use.
