It's a social club! All about appearances. You would be surprised how many drink in excess and are on every form of anti depressants when they return home. We know a bunch, including family.

20Have you noticed this trend on social media amongst witnesses...?
by stuckinarut2 init seems that every 2nd witness often posts pictures of themselves at conventions, or out in 'service'.
but i have noticed that they never seem to post anything about the actual "spiritual content" of their activity!
instead, it is pictures of them with their witness "friends", along with some contrite comment like #bestlifeever (arrghhh).

You know how most JW men gotta keep the little woman in line. Lol
Like Rutherford said..."a hank of hair and bag of bones." My husband and I joke about that saying all of the time.
Ya just gotta laugh at them, they are sad. "Best Iife ever?" Standing around at a cart is the best life ever? Maybe if they keep repeating that, they will start believing it.

Ridiculous (degrading) comment on society's video
by Festus inon video "benefits of divine education" william samuelsson makes totally appalling comment.. starting from 3:05 he refers to "an effort" that was made in past to see how society's curriculum corresponds with normal - worldly - universities.. then he claims that following question was asked (to university representative) "how we in five months can teach the same that for them takes two years"?.
according to w samuelsson the representative of a university replied something like this: "your students are motivated, they have come to learn where as our students have been send to university by their parents and might have something else than learning in their mind".
this is to crystallize what he said.

Another question for those interviewed.....after your 5 months of training can you purchase a home, car, food, clothing, have a 401k, save for retirement. Do you also get medical, dental and life insurance?
You see...we have family members who have this "divine education " they speak about. They are living in their parents basement and waiting on Jah to throw down some food. This stuff infuriates me but make me laugh. If only these idiots could see how hard my kids have had to work to receive real beneficial training not some fake form that only benefits Watchtower.
Watchtower has to make those who have sacrificed all normal education feel better about themselves. It really ticks off a brother who has divine education when he and his wife are living off mom and dad and they have to see Brother successful pull up in his new BMW and posting pictures on Facebook of his new home and luxurious vacation him and his lovely wife can enjoy. I have seen this happen first hand. The spiritual ones are so jealous of the successful ones. Especially when the successful one is an Elder and so is the divinely educated one.
During the annual meeting they interviewed all of the Bethel doctors. Ask these ones being interviewed if they would like one of these doctors to work on them if they only had 5 months of education. These clips make me realize how delusional these guys are!!!!

WT has always demonized EVERYTHING. I never realized how much they did it until I exited the cult. No one can do it better than Watchtower. In other words...you will never succeed better than what Watchtower has to offer. Try telling a university that you received the same training in a cult that you could have received at a two to four year university. They will laugh in your face.
Narcissists always think they are the very best.

by pale.emperor inthis poor girl was baptized at 9yo.

she isnt old enough to buy alcohol, to vote, to decide her own medical treatment, to buy a pet, to travel alone... yet she was deemed old enough to dedicate her life to a religion that will cut her off from her family if she ever leaves.. here she is applauded for shunning her own sister who tried to keep in contact with her after waking up.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yzgnfda8ki.

Mold em while they are young! That's why we got our kids out of the cult.
Watchtower has sunken to it's lowest on this one. Really Watchtower, you have to use kids to get your dirty disgusting message to the drones?

JWs biggest problem is not doctrinal issues
by Chook init's biggest problems are associated with its lack of genuine love and concern for the rank& file.
the average person doesn't need a food critic to tell them their hamburger is shit, in the same manner the average person can discern kindness and love.
gbs fake love and concern is evident in the way head office deals with victims of sexual abuse by jw clergy.

"She said 'we will in paradise without you but it doesn't matter because we won"t remember you ever existed."
Unbelievable, that your own Mother said this. I couldn't even think this much less say it to my own child. This is some sick sh*t!
I am sad for you. This is hurtful beyond belief. I'm sorry. Hugs!

Lack of love and concern is what shook us awake. For years I told my spouse, "something is just not right." Once you see WT for what it is , you can not unsee it. Love and concern is either there or it's not. We have been married for many years and I have NEVER had the feeling of not being cared about in our marriage. We don't buy the JW's line, "the organization is made up of imperfect men." That is a cop out! If I went to the Elders with a sin that I committed, they would interrogate me, DF or reprove me and then announce my name from the platform (humiliate me). There is NO...."well, we'll let it slide, he/she is just an imperfect person." No free pass for me. If the congregation has to be kept clean by disciplining me, when will the congregation be "kept clean" from these imperfect men who are free to plow over everyone's life? I see a pattern of Watchtower wanting their cake and eating it too.
