I know a jw counselor that makes the jws he counsels sign a paper that if they were reveal they sinned he would report to the elders.
I don’t think that is even legal. The guy is a pompous asshole anyway. His kids can’t even stand him.

29Do You Know Of Anyone That Has Seen A Therapist Because Of Being A Witness?
by minimus ini really don’t know of many people who got into therapy because of their jw dealings but i would think that if someone remains depressed or severely affected by their past witness life, it’s not a bad idea to speak to someone to get you on the right path.
i think this site has been very therapeutic for many over the years..

anyway, i saw a video last night my saying jws think we only have 12 months left before armageddon so thought maybe this is the reason for changes attitude.

DISFELLOWSHIPPING, How bad is it really?
by pistolpete ini found this experience on reddit today.
disfellowshipping never really bothered me.
i always thought it was just another way of getting rid of members that weren't welcome anymore.. but i've changed my mind.

It sounds like a worldly family took this kid in and he married their daughter and had a successful life. The jw parents missed out in the end. I know an older couple probably dead now that shunned all 3 of their disfellowshipped kids. They got old and the congregation wouldn’t take care of them. I’m not sure where they ended up. -

A buddy of mine did while he was a jw. Going to the psychologist helped him leave the religion. He’s still a bit messed up but thats the result of being raised jw.

I believe in patent and copyright law. People need to get paid for their work that we all benefit from. If you like listening to free music learn to write songs, play an instrument and pay $$$ for someone to record it or invest even more $$$ in a studio and enjoy your “free” music.
The watchtower isn’t going after this for the money at least not directly. They give this shit away for nothing. However, if jws hear this song before the convention it takes away from the anticipation and they will be less inclined to donate $$$. So it really is all about the money.

Jewish Hatred Is Nothing New
by minimus injews have been vilified for centuries!
they were nomads looking for the promised land.
they have been nearly exterminated and yet they are still in the middle east as well as a brotherhood throughout the world.

Cognitive Dissonance. Any oppressed person, group, or race are supposed to fail. When they succeed despite being put down it infuriates the general population. Same reason people hate hutterites in the farming community. They choose to be different and they are extremely successful in their endeavours.

So they don’t even buy their booze local. Someone should warn the town before the jws move in.

"The purpose of the complex is strictly religious," he said. "As such the facility is tax-exempt. However, significant tax revenue will be generated for the region through the procurement of goods and services from local suppliers, contractors and consultants."
The only thing they will buy local is booze at discount liquor. Other than that they will go with the lowest cost supplier.
