  Members of congregation know it’s not true

  by Mikejw in

  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.

  I think old timers JWs stay only because they feel like they belong to something.

  And the social aspect of things.

  They were saying on Verns show tonight exJWTV,,comments about this.

  Fran & Joe were the hosts as usual,,,with another guest. The guest related that most people are smart enough to snap out of this religion,,,but,,,,if they want to.

  That's right,,if,,,they want to.

  There's a plethora of vids,,books & websites blowing the door off of this Borg.

  People "wake up" if they want to. Many dont want to when they have been hoodwinked their entire life waiting on a fairy tale.

  I believe Sam Herd has to be at least 85. To my knowledge.

  Holding a grudge

  by LongHairGal in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i read something recently on reddit (not sure what thread) where a person related how some jw told them that ‘they hold a grudge’.. this reminded me of something an old jw acquaintance said to me some years back when i related my bad experience in the religion.. so, apparently, jehovah’s witnesses feel they should be forgiven for anything.

  people should forget all about it and act like nothing happened and be charitable towards them, etc… when i read in james and ephesians i got the sense ‘holding a grudge’ was referring to the things average people do to offend each other.. i don’t see it applying to a religion that claimed to speak for god and who engendered hateful and unchristian attitudes towards people.. i know because i experienced this.. in addition, some people’s lives were damaged by listening to faulty teachings and interference in things that were clearly none of anybody’s business.. one case in point: them knocking worldly careers and now there are thousands of destitute jws in senior years with nothing.. then in 2023 the religion does away with a century old teaching about counting hours in the ministry.

  meanwhile, i got judged over this.

  Does this pretty much sum it all up?

  by Tahoe in

  2. beliefs

  jehovah witnesses are hypocrites and false prophets who are conning themselves.

  jehovah’s witnesses, a christian denomination/cult known for their distinct beliefs and practices, have long faced scrutiny and criticism.

  while they present themselves as a cohesive and morally stringent group, numerous inconsistencies and instances of hypocrisy have been noted both by outsiders and former members.
