Why are so many JWs hicks?
by kristyann inokay, i know this might sound like an obvious question... but in all reality, why are so many jehovah's witnesses hicks?
why does it seem that there are so many in rural areas?
i hope this doesn't offend anyone... i don't really mean it to be an insult to any of you, cause obviously i consider most of you a lot smarter than some regular jw (or some stereotypical hick).

Lifesavers story . . . Jehovah's Witness love and honesty . . . missing
by garybuss innever have i been more aware of the lengths that the watch tower society was willing to go to maintain their donations and their control of us witnesses than i was at the district assembly in bismarck nd in 1975. this is where i began to doubt my acceptance level of the doctrine called the doctrine called the "theocratic war strategy" (tws).
that is, the viewpoint that says it is all right to lie to jehovah's enemies.
(see aid and insight under lie).

I remember being at a district convention and a brother was walking around with his baby girl. I suppose he was trying to quiet her down--I don't remember. Anyway, his form of discipline was to snap a large comb on her bare thigh. I remember tears streaming down her face and she was not making a sound. He kept doing it--I looked him in the eye--he looked at me and still kept it up. Wish I had said something--I sure would now. What a creep.

The Unkindest Cut: Hateful Words from JWs that Show Their True Colours
by Scully ini decided to start this topic when ozziepost shared the experience of a bethel representative telling him and mrs. ozzie "and don't forget, we've got your children!
it's important for us to hear these experiences and to share them with each other.
it helps us tear down the mistaken beliefs that the incidents that happen to us are not isolated ones, but are in fact par for the course when one parts ways with the jws and wts.

"If you are going to turn your back on The Truth™, you may as well take your three beautiful children out in the back yard and blow their heads off with a gun. That way they won't go down with you at Armageddon and will have a resurrection in the Paradise."
Wow--that is sick--some friend! I suppose she thought that statement would shock you back to "correct thinking" it's still sick!

Because your problems are real world (reality) problems and cannot be solved by make-believe and wishful thinking and mental constructs of a fake world where angels and other invisible activists are running things.
I love this statement!

by zagor inin my opinion it is a current truth.
ive never heard of such term elsewhere.
the funny thing is you never really know when an old truth stops being current and becomes a new lie.. .

Were you persecuted while in the WTS?
by greendawn induring your stint in the wts were there any jws that would regularly harass and persecute you because of jealousy or sheer malice rather than due to any "apopstate ideas?

When I was young, I was picked on for my out of style clothes!
Picked on for having a skill....
Constantly harrassed with this statement-----"At least your husband is in the truth." Didn't matter how he was treating me!
Before I had children------"Your life is easy-you don't have children." This coming from someone with five children and I desperately wanted a baby!
Most of these I heard over and over and over............
