its over, its over.. the watchtower has decided to end it all, suspend the organization work.

DFing and shunning causes 22-yr old to murder friend

by Scully in

so i was randomly watching a show on investigation discovery today - the show was called killer next door, and the episode was called murder without motive.. the show is a french-canadian program that has been translated into english, and this particular episode had to do with a homicide that took place in ste-croix-de-lotbiniere, near quebec city, in november 1999 of a young man named victor lemay.. the confessed murderer was his friend, andre roy, then aged 22.. in the year or so that preceded the murder, andre roy had been disfellowshipped from the jws and had, as a result, been kicked out of his parents' home.

he had no social support outside of the jws and had to start making new friends.

the psychologists on the program felt very strongly that the shunning he experienced by the jws in general, and his family in particular, contributed to increasing rage, and that his friend, victor, became a convenient outlet for his rage.

From that time, Andre Roy has been the victim of several depressions and suicide attempts until the drama.

It is no accident that DFing does this. DFing is DESIGNED to destroy a person mentally and emotionally, so that they will return to the cult. It is probably the single most disgusting, evil practice that WTS has.

For the dubs? it would be a complete disaster.

For the rest of humanity? Let me ask you - if a measly 0.001 of the world's population disappeared tomorrow, would anybody care?

What on earth happened to the magazines?

by slimboyfat in

for the first time in years today.

to say that it took me five minutes to read the whole thing would be to flatter the rag.

it doesn't even seem to contain actual articles any more, just headings and bullet points and pictures.

Coming up soon (Sep/Oct), the WT & Awake will be bundled into one 32 page magazine.

What I was told by the Service Oversneer (I'm the ragazine serpent in my cong), was that they were just changing the "nesting" - so instead of 2 awakes nested together and 2 WTs nested together, it would be an awake nested in a WT.

I'm surprised it took them a year to figure that one out.

Needed - a printable 2013 DC badge

by venetian in

is anyone able to post this years dc badge for printing?.

i'm a man with a plan .

mawahhhhhhh!.

Shador

Good luck, venetian. You might get something over there, as Europe seems tougher on hate speech than the US.

On a related note, I've always wanted to fill my badge out with fake info just to see if anyone noticed. - Bro. H. Potter, Hogwarts Congregation. Lol.

Falling asleep praying...did you?

by punkofnice in

i remember there being 'admonition(tm)' from the platform about how disrespectful it is to sky twat jar hoover if we nod off when speaking to our imaginary despot god.. i was always nodding off when praying.

i noticed in the end it didn't matter if i prayed or not the results were always equally disappointing snooze or not!.

Shador

Ever notice how some brothers would always open their prayers the exact same way? Like we've got one MS who always starts "Father Jehovah". His son, an elder, does the same.

We had one oddball who would always start out "Awesome Benevolent Supreme Soverign" - he doesn't get assigned to pray anymore.
