Yes...WT has set this entire thing up so they can pull out the persecution card. The Rank and file will bobble their heads up and down, lap it up and say..."proper food at the proper time." I truly believe these people would drink the kool aid and ask for a refill. Unbelievable!

Australian Royal Commission mentions that G. Jackson was inconsistent
by Daniel1555 init's great that the following is officially mentioned in the royal commission's report:.
when asked if the governing body members saw themselves as ‘jehovah god’s spokespeople on earth’, mr geoffrey jackson answered that it ‘would seem to be quite presumptuous to say that we are the only spokesperson that god is using’.
mr jackson’s response seems to be inconsistent with the documentary evidence before the royal commission, which shows that jehovah’s witnesses believe that the governing body is the ‘channel’ by which jehovah’s ‘will’ is communicated to them..

He is creepy beyond belief! The JW's will be in awe of him. The more outrageous, the more they will follow along.

That One Defining Moment That Changed Your Life.
by new boy init seems that many times in life there is a moment or an action that changes your whole world.
it could be just a look that someone gives you.. many times it can be something rather small.
something hardly noticeable by anyone but you.

Watching a Circuit Overseer act like a narcissistic fool on the stage. i was having my doubts but that one finished me off. That was it for me. I finally pulled the curtain back and saw that the great and powerfull oz was just a little old man.
If I bumped into that CO today, I would thank him.

Sanctimonious, "WE'RE Thankful EVERY day."
by stillin inthanksgiving is really just a nice, traditional, family-oriented day set aside on a national level.

You know it's time to give up the JW religion when your route call tells you to
by jambon1 inlasting memory of the latter period of time in the organisation:.
i had a route call with the magazines whom i'd called on for a number of years.
eventually when i become a parent i became consumed with negativity, doubt (blood issue) & depression.

Notsurewheretogo said it perfectly . You can never do enough or be good enough . I told this to an elder before we left. The tasks you do measures the spirituality JW's judge you on. You could be the biggest ass but as long as the JW's see what you are doing spiritually (aka tasks). Perseption is everything in JWland. Man I DO NOT MISS THAT!

We have still in family members that are having financial, marital and emotional problems. The Uber dub side of the family keeps telling them to do more. More meetings, more service, more study and things will get better. The "weaker" side of the family is trying to do more and guess what? They still have financial , marital and emotional problems. Jah doesn't seem to be fixing their problems . So they keep visiting the doctors and switching out their anti depressants. Frustrating as hell for us on the other side (you know....the dark side). lol

November Broadcast - truly evil
by iwasblind inhi there i don't watch much of the propaganda on jw.org anymore but i did catch the november broadcast.. i think these guys are either evil or controlled by someone who is incredibly skilled at mind control.. firstly, they establish their authority by saying "everything" else is a lie - you can't trust media or anyone.
"there is no inspiration today.." but they somehow have the direct connection with god - yuck.. then, they proceed with that disgusting "shunning" drama - but now it is not called shunning, (around 24 mins) the mother said... "if we were to stand between levi and the discipline he needs we would in affect be blocking an expression of jehovah's love from reaching him...".
i am so angry at this, what a load.

The shunning of one's children is truly evil but WT is showing it's true colors. WT is an abusive cult. It is having a direct affect. WT is having money troubles because of this abuse. The cracks are starting to show. That's a good thing. I love watching abusive people suffer. It's just sad to see so many brainwashed loved ones fall for it.
