  How many different "rules" do Jehovah's Witnesses have to obey? Can you count them?

  by Balaamsass2 in

  2. beliefs

  all the big changes for jws since this last fall brought me back to this site, and got me and the wife talking.

  just how many things were we not allowed to do growing up as jehovah's witnesses?

  we were so used to all the rules, customs, and traditions, that we became used to them.. one site i found claims there are 141 unique rules!!

  If we are pursuing "legal action" our foremost concern should be the image of the organization.

  Is what the WT would say. Thats what motive should be.

  Repetition. A mind control technique .

  The opposite is true when 'someone' wants you to "forget" something.

  Repetitive word(s). ie,, governing body,, last days,, TRUTH,, meetings,, circiut overseer, donate,, Armageddon,, great tribulation.....list goes on & on.....

  You get the picture??

  When JW.org drops 607BCE...

  probably everyone else thought of this long ago, but i, being an "independent thunker" thunk of it just a coupla weeks ago.. we all know that since the year zero (on the fredfranzian calendar) the wtb&ts has defied archaeology and insisted that jerusalem was destroyed in 607 bce, even though the physical evidence shows that 587 bce is a more likely date.

  in fact, the book "the gentile times reconsidered: have jehovah's witnesses been wrong all along about 607 bce?

  " by carl olof jonsson and rud persson made this conversation public.. it is a difference of 20 years.

  They just say things less,,less less & less

  Its proven by an indoctrination technique.

  The reverse for enforcement of doctrine. Say something more,, more , more & more.

  Like 120 times in 7 minutes..

  No matter what "new light" the Borganization drops and it may affect thousands of lives adversely,,, remember the Borg will say ""no apology is needed either."

  Such apologists have a lot to lose.

  When ones entire theology hangs on a mere thread with no backing they really pull out all the stops to uphold their confirmation biases.

  "This is the best life ever"

  " we treat people how we'd want to be treated".

  " we are the most free people"".

  ""As humans,, we do things by 'choice' ".

  ROFL. All those above statements are laughable & ridiculous. 🤣🤣 ( UMM ok)

  I'll just rephrase.

  You can get disfellowshipped for what ever the elders decide. By ones 'apparent' lack of remorse.

  With the shunning to ensue brought on by the kangaroo court.
