  Time.

  Which you can never regain.

  Money,,its possible you can.

  Time,,,you cant.

  The time spent on things getting ready for meetings also. Dressing up. Driving to & fro.

  Time. When its gone,,,its gone.

  These martyrs hate to be challenged.

  If you ever listen to a recording of a judicial committee you hear over & over " we're not here to debate"" ","""we're not here to debate"". "" we're not here to debate".

  2. experiences

  we have lonely old folks and even some not so old.. they know the gb are not who they claim to be.. but they stay in the congregation because they are lonely.

  i wonder what percentage of jws this is the case, i would guess a lot.

  Each subsequent generation in the Borg the craziness is passed on.

  Either they cant see the craziness,, or they're just stupid. I think they can see through it all but accept ''willful blindness".

  Each subsequent born in generation,, are blindsided & victimized before they even realize it. They have no choice

  People stay in the Borg for decades due to the "sunk cost fallacy".

  And probably because of the community of friends it gives them.

  I will venture to say this.

  The Borg as we knew it before the internet age didn't expect the ""internet age".

  In the last 15 - 18 years a great "awakening" is taking place.

  The Borg never anticipated that.

  Up until about 2002-04 the Borg was thriving. After about 2006 the Borg was pooched with the internet. They're screwed.

  All you're going to hear someday is white noise coming from headquarters some day.

  The jws will attempt to to watch their jw broadcasting videos when they will only find ""no connection"" with that white spinning circle on their screens.

  Panic will ensue,,,they wont know what to do & will run around like chickens with their heads cut off.

  After years & years & years & years of having their thinking done for them.

  The Borg might not be around much longer.

  it's not yahweh as other scholars claim.. https://youtu.be/4vgxmmbst8w?si=yq7ggwstkpnd3f18.

  just picked this summary up.

  "some of the key criticisms that have been raised about the jehovah's witness organization include:.

  strict control and authoritarianism: the organization is highly centralized, with major decisions being made by the governing body.
