judged for not ostrisizing?
by blindfool inok, i'm getting a little lazy here.
i glanced at a couple of jw books on the issue, but i know you guys can answer, so i'm going straight to the experts.. what happens if a good witness refuses to ostracize a df'd member.
i know an elder might approach and question their actions, but would a judicial committee ever be formed to stop a person from associating with a df'd witness?.

Do the Witnesses "manipulate" recruits?
by refiners fire indo they "mystically manipulate"people joining them?.
im inclined to say they dont.. they are almost unique in this.. practically every cult ive joined, i could recite a litany of manipulation techniques applied to me during my joining process.. the dubs study with people, systematically, unemotionally.. noone else does this in my experience.. people who join the dubs join under "intellectual conviction".. do you agree with this view or not??.
im most curious to hear opinions on this.

Isolate & indoctorate = modus-operandi of the JWs, a universal trick of most cults!

JW's do serve one purpose, it makes it possible to enjoy your freedom & appreciate it when you exit!

Think of the possibilities....
by Intuit39 inwhat would happen if, one by one, each jehovah's witness started standing up for him/herself and what s/he personally stands for?.
a couple of examples: .
a friend of mine, an elder in a rural northern kentucky congregation, stepped down from his position a couple of years ago, and when confronted by the elders, he basically told them in no uncertain terms to 'leave him and his family alone.

How long will it take to be reinstated?
by blindfool inok, heres my question for all the ex-elders out there.. it will be announced thursday that my niece will be disfellowshipped.. the circumstances are not important to this discussion, but she is .
remorseful for her actions and has taken steps so it will not happen again.
she actually made a lot of sacrifices to try to make her mistake right.
