  A Subtle Factor That Keeps Witnesses Silenced

  by freemindfade in

  had an interesting thought this morning.

  when a witness is 'in' they think everyone else is following and trying there best all in unity.

  i believe the reality is there are a lot of us 'in' who know different.

  I totally agree!

  They are behind a vail thinking everyone not df'd still believes. Thats a powerful force. If they said you are free to leave, the halls would be quite empty.

  I believe the reality is there are a lot of us 'in' who know different. And it's a big help in escaping the F.O.G. But when you don't know there are people pretending, or going through motions or, fading/faded, who would DA in heartbeat if the consequences were removed, you just feel like an outsider.

  Crossing that bridge and finding out there is such a large number of mentally out ones who for their own reasons have to stay physically 'in' really is an eye opener and a luxury we can enjoy on this side. On the other-side, not knowing, you think people are either all in our all out. That makes you feel anxiety, like there are millions of believers and there is something wrong with you.

  This may be the JW religions best kept darkest secret. This is why they are talking more than ever about "faders" even though they don't call them that. In video, in literature. They are shown as people who just are weak spiritually and feel like giving up as portrayed by the WTBTS. The truth is they hate the religion and don't believe any but are not free to leave. So by producing this image they are protecting the mind control and cult unity. If witness knew that a third or more of the publisher in their hall and all the halls in the developed world were only going to not lose their family they would $hit their pants. But guess who does know... headquarters... they know.

  Yea I understand the meaning behind Judith and Maynards mom, but I think the frustration in the song and the thought behind it is powerful.

  nicely put, thank you.
  As an atheist I still consider myself interested in spirituality, enlightenment, and positive laws of the universe. I just make no claim to the source of those things or as heaven was talking about a totalitarian idea of everything.

  This is wrong, taking this pour mans personal life and pushing him to this. Cults are BAD, yes, worse than pornography

  When you were Hard-Core JW, did Opponents Screaming or Filming you help your Exit?

  all of us are upset in different ways, some of us are ferociously angry because, let's face it, it's our fault!

  i had many clues they were lying about our religion but i failed to see through them because of the pain of admitting we got conned and family pressure from peers stopped me from making a courageous choice.

  when i read about people who confronted the elders and won their judicial committees (even though the jw elders df'ed them) my heart goes out to their courage, their amazingly stronger than i will ever be.

  That stuff did not make me leave. At all, most of the people participating appeared unstable, I can understand how a cult can push you to that point, however, that's the challenge, not responding to crazy with crazy

  There is no real love in this organization, the people that are loving are that way by no account of this f-ing cult. All the rest truly are a product of it though. Its sad.

  Hell if he had attempted and failed, he probably would have been dissfellowshipped for attempted suicide... assholes
