  Can i file a law suit against the WTS?

  by God_Delusion in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i had a brief chat with my lawyer last week and discussed religion as i always do with him (he's an atheist).

  he asked how the jw's were doing and so i told him that i no longer go and that i to am an athiest (well, not entirely an atheist as i do believe that there may be some other forces out there somewhere and will believe that until it has been proved otherwise).

  he was very pleased to hear this.. anyway, i asked him if it would be possible to file a law suit against the wts?.

  russia seems to view them as an "extremist organization" that incites religious hatred and breaks up families.. we should be watching this story very closely.. jakes.

  WTS causing more anguish

  by GapingMouth in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i don't really know where to start on my first post; i feel i have so much to say and yet i am so emotionally tired that it is hard to go through it all again in my head.

  but, i do need support and advice and so i will make the effort.. i started having doubts about certain beliefs of the witnesses about 2 years ago and did research since that i now come to the belief there is no god, and witnesses definitely are a cult.. at first it bothered me more on the god issue, but now i am more bothered by the cult issue, mainly because it dictates my life even though i am aware of it.. when i was a child, my mother and father divorced and my mother told me i will live with my father because she was going to die at armageddon being a non witness.

  i think, as well as many other pressures i cant list for fear of a very long post, this was the main pressure that made me get baptized even though i wasn't that happy being a witness.

  Questioning me as an apostate

  by God_Delusion in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i am an active jw.

  i was born in the "truth" (i really feel uncomfortable calling it that) and am now married to a witness.. for a year now, i have actually come to see that the gb are just business-psychologists.

  anyone who views jehovah's witnesses as a religion and not a cult, really needs to evaluate their way of thinking and they also need to look up the definition of the word "cult".. anyway, my parents recently came over on holiday (they live in another country and are also residents of bethel).

  Ex-JW should take advantage of the podcast technology

  by Hiddenwindow in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i listen to podcasts several times a week.

  while surfing itunes and downloading programs, i see a lot of ex-mormons podcasts, which i usually put in my ipod, but practically none from jw.

  shouldn't we take advantage of this?

  Are Jehovah's Witnesses a Cult?

  by trevor in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  mind control.

  when one is a member of a group such as jehovahs witnesses, it is not possible to be aware of the degree to which personal freedoms that are normally taken for granted are lost.

  the mind-control techniques used by the watchtower society are by no means unique.
