I get that and have had the same thought, BUT...
There are many other things or institutions that could have provided what people who need something that the WT provides but not be controlling or destructive.
Being a slave is never the best answer.
this is my first post, i will introduce myself later.
first of all, i must say that english is not my mother tongue (i'm spanish), so excuse me if i make any mistake.. do you think that some people simply can't cope with being outside the jws?
some of them are too worldlyphobic to be around non-jws, too dependent on a fixed set of rules in order to carry on with their lives, too dependent on the hope of paradise and resurrection, too unable to leave their personal comfort zone within the organization.

my brother has been talking about the earth being flat and some big conspiracy going on to make people beieve otherwise.
what are people's thoughts on this?.
If you even entertain the thought that the Earth is flat, you are a moron wasting the air you breathe.
By the way, I guess everyone at Direct TV is in on the hoax since they have 13 satellites "F#CKING ORBITING" the earth you stupid morons!

i have had some conversations with ex-jw women and i am more than a little concerned at how, if a female, is treated in committee meetings.
it sure seems (i experienced this when i was young) that the elders have a commonality in trying to create such shame and sexual guilt (especially where none is deserved) that it is beyond abuse.
i know there are a lot of former elders here.
YES they do. But not in the way you think.

This site can get so discouraging.
"Flat earth, moon hoax, Trump is great, evolution is fake, JW trolls..."
It's like I am back in the kingdom hall again sometimes. :(
the wtbts has finally decided to join the rest of us in the 21st century and has begun rebranding.
they've dropped the iconic watchtower sign from their heaquarters, and it's only a matter of time till they drop the now embarrassing watchtower name completely; a name synonymous with failure on the one hand and concentration camps on the other.. the organisation will soon be known solely as jw.org, bringing them right up-to-date with the web 2.0 revolution of 15 years ago, and making them the only company still to use a full web address as their main identifier, very forward-thinking of them.. it's inevitable that they'll gradually rebrand everything.
what methods do you think they'll go with?

Ah, they sold the building with the sign in Brooklyn.
