The org either is oblivious to their hypocrisy and don’t honestly can’t see themselves or their actions……or
They fully know the mental manipulation that they are employing to deceive and entrap millions of people into their scam.
"the generally accepted definition of propaganda is this: an organization for the propagation of a doctrine or system, the purpose of which is to cause the membership of the system or organization to increase or enlarge.
religious organizations engage in propaganda, because each system of religion tries to increase its membership.
the work of jehovah’s witnesses for his kingdom is entirely a different matter.

i would love to hear from anyone who may have encountered the following the traveling overseers:.
david wesley - an incredibly kind and humble man.
just the most down-to-earth co you'll ever find.

a level 3 sex offender who moved to springfield and secured a role with the jehovah’s witnesses religious organization is now in prison.
jay aaron smith, 62, was sentenced recently in hampden superior court to 15 years in prison for several counts of indecent assault and battery on a child.
They lied about not reporting as well.
They told the media they reported but in fact didn’t.
Do jws think the police are stupid?
They are masters at begging for money.
By turning a legal, fiscal requirement into a religious event they can guilt the attendees into $$$$
what's the current jw stance on retirement savings?
i know it changed.
pre1975 it was an attitude of "don't worry about retirement, this system is ending soon".
I see many Jehovahs witnesses that earn more than sufficient income but can’t manage their finances. They spend it as fast or faster than they earn it.
I think part of the problem is the “We’re in the last, last, last part of the final part of the last days” bullshit that the governing body spews from their pie holes. One thing of certainly is this: The governing body, circuit overseer, body of elders don’t give a shit about your financial future or retirement. What they care about is your meeting attendance, field service report and time that you donate to building kingdum hauls. It’s nothing to do with you but all about them.
today i noticed 2 jw's and chart on the quest moment and the quest possible place.
looked tyred, ignorent and no kingdom smile.
what is going on with the motivation of the jw?.
I would actually go as far to say that the org pads the numbers at every level to appear to be more charitable than they really are and to keep the person above you off your back. I just can’t imagine the hassle the circuit overseer would give to an elder body with low hours.
hi i want to tell my story and get advice.
i'm a single sister ( in usa) that has been baptized for 20 years.
i came from the world, so did not grow up in the truth and i have no family in the truth -- i am alone.. last year i met a brother & we did have premarital sex while we were dating.
Knowing what I know now if I were in that situation I would vehemently deny having sex before marrying, referring to the two witness rule.
Honest people get to eat all the shit in life while abusive con artists like your ex husband screw you over in more ways than one. I would have thrown him under the bus for what he did to you
in this jw training video, an elder gets deleted because his daughter has "stumbled" other jw's by pursuing higher education.
🤣.

People need to learn to not become emotionally attached to a situation. It’s too easy for others to control you.
One elder I knew carried a resignation letter in his briefcase. He was a good elder but wouldn’t allow himself to be manipulated.
When things got heated he would pull out the letter and offer to hand it to the PO. That would end the conversation and he would remain an elder.
Going through any kind of meeting as depicted in this video is demeaning, humiliating and likely to cause life long trauma.
Pimo elders. Have your resignation letter ready to hand to them.

The words I should have used were strongly discourage their members from attending university.
You or your kids can go to university but you will be soft shunned by the group.

I watched the elder training video online and I will say that they portrayed brother brown as a pompous, belligerent person that should have never been an elder in the first place.
This was done on purpose to associate elders that just want a better life for their kids as total assholes when they are probably more reasonable than that.
The irony is that the borganization begs for people with university level skills to help at bethel yet in effect doesn’t let their members attend university.
