The Characterization of most Jehovah's Witnesses

by Mr.Finkelstein in

after years of being with jws you start to see a certain developmental characterization of most jws, particularly from elders who have the most power in each congregation.

.

the ideology follows along the route of holding up a white sheet over the entire organization, as well each identified individual member (brothers and sisters) which no doubt most jws will inevitably exploit toward themselves.. i personally recognized what hypocrisy was at young age from seeing and being around jws at the kingdom halls and what they were like away from the halls.. there is forced pretentiousness at play which comes out by jws.. having being reminded repetitively that god almighty sent his only begotten son to redeem their sins probably had some relevant connection.. there was no question to the fact that jws are associated with delusions, anxiety, fear, ignorance, subsided with prejudice against others who are not recognized as being active jws .. we are the most righteous chosen ones as it were and that self recognizance goes deep into the jws's consciousness in their daily living.

The "being judgmental" seems to be popular among humanoids in general.

I agree - JWs are 'on stage' when around the A Team of JWs. They will do whatever is beneficial to their associate JWs. It was 'splained to me they don't think twice since all their bros have to forgive them. From what I've heard this is a serious issue in religious circles - CPAs, attorneys, judges, you name it - they all have more than a few stories of clients/cases being bamboozled by other believers. Guard is down and folks want to help - especially those that are related in their faith.

Deodorant Sales Plummet Due to Social Distancing

by Sea Breeze in

stock tip: now might not be the time to invest in deodorant companies.

Sea B - Hilarious - people jump out of shower these days and skip deodorant - oh my.

What's the best stock pick of the week/day/month? Might get my mind off of COVID - I think NV COVID stats are higher than Cali - not sure but they were partying like crazy when strip opened but protests didn't affect the rate/haha - WRONG - only infected whole floors of executive/marketing/gaming venues. Even health dept reported the aftermath of protests before the COVID breakouts.

Appreciate the 'hand sanitizer' list - I order/pick up whatever is available and can't stand most with the scents but my faves hard to find. I ordered bunch of small individual ones to keep in cars, etc., from amazon, and they arrived with floating black flecks - (glitter) and I gave away now worried about. The Chi Coms continued sending more - about 50- 100 per bundle along with visors that flash and blink that I never ordered! Are they trying to score points from the Americans! I feel bad for the people in that horrific place but that's about it.

Thx for the sanitizer link and deodorant info - unreal.

Do You Think All These Organized Demonstrations Are Productive?

from washington state to new york city to atlanta and california and so on, you see thousands of demonstrators trying to get rid of police, statues, monuments and anything they consider racially biased.. do you think this type of activity and destruction is working well for the country and it’s law abiding citizens?

?.

LV101

It's beyond - I hope the trained forces are capable of dealing with it. Sad these cities are without law and order but seems to be the trend for these 'power' politicians.

I believe it - scary - doubt I could sit through it - the news is bad enough of the 'peaceful' protesting. Unreal.

Any advice? Please elaborate or hope others will.

Useing unhealthy fear to force people to obey.

fear of being shunned.

do you have any stories?.

LV101

All the ones I associated with had fear of being accepted and fitting in. Unbelievable! So fake - would make comments to convince others - always schmoozing. It was crazy - what a cult!

Watchtower June 2020 Article, '' Return to Me''

the watchtower—study edition | june 2020. .

study article 26.

LHG - About 1990 I was told there were so many people waiting to study with witnesses the society decided to make it more difficult to become a JW. Lots of baptism questions, more books needed to be studied before one could become a JW. I was told the witnesses could be more "selective" of who they wanted to become associated with as members. That sounds Christ-like to me! Can you imagine - those judgmental losers.

there is a surge going on of people buying guns, especially first time buyers.

with talk of police defunding and rioting in the neighborhoods, some people want to protect themselves.. do you support owning and using a gun if needed?.

LV101

It's our right and I totally understand the importance now more than ever.

We don't have much choice in these dangerous times - better be prepared to protect ourselves if alone or out and about and our family. Sure wish my Dad would have taught me how to shoot a shotgun. I'd prefer to not have to think about guns or buy them but it is what it is.
