this is an excellent thread to read that i saw yesterday and the poster hits the nail on the head and tells it so well.
he is really knocking pimi witnesses and has a lot of well deserved criticisms about them.. he says he hopes at this point that they never wake up….
i am inclined to feel the same.
“They are a parasite living off the fear provided by mainstream media.”
Good connection. The same ultimate enemy that gives you the fear problem, offers you their “solution”.
By contrast, Jesus said over and over to “fear not”. I think that fear is at the root of most mental problems. And, JW’s live under crushing fear.
the watchtower tries to make the christian faith about what you are doing.
but, the christian faith is about what jesus already did.
any questions?.

i would like to start a thread on lies that the watchtower and their reps have told.
surely we all have one or two that truly sticks out in our memories, no matter how much we would like to forget.
my favorite wt lie: the reason they don't want to release the name of the "scholars" who worked on the new world translation is because they do not want to accept "glory and honor" from others.
"Would it be Scripturally proper for them to now marry and to begin to rear children? No, is the answer, which is supported by the Scripture. Those Jonadabs who now contemplate marriage, it would seem, would do better if they wait a few years, until the fiery storm of Armageddon is gone..." Face the Facts (1938) pp.46-50

I remember being train to say this in the 60's: "We are not a church. We're Jehovah's Witnesses".
But when the Gibbering Buddies found out they could extract millions of dollars each year from countries in $atan's Organization, especially in Europe, all they sudden is was OK to be a church.
Hypocrits.
(nato emergency meeting!
) biden to give nukes to ukraine under consideration – world war 3!!!
(steve ram).
A poll released by the Kyiv Institute of Sociology, with data gathered from 8–16 April, 41.1% of people in Donetsk were for decentralisation of Ukraine with powers transferred to regions, while letting it remain a unified state, 38.4% for changing Ukraine into federation, 27.5% were in favour of secession from Ukraine to join the Russian Federation, and only 10.6% supported current unitary structure without changes.[18]
Looks like most of the people affected by all this are unhappy with Zelenski's Ukraine one way or another. This is a regional dispute and needs to be worked out between the parties invoved. It is certainly not an issue worthy of a nuclear war for the whole world to suffer through.
Many seem to love war and chaos so that they can be part of the "solution". Only problem is, the people in the disputed regions don't seem to particularly want to be "saved" by Zelinski. I hope voters remember what their hawkish politicians (on both sides of the isle) put us through in two years during the next election cycle.
so just what is the latest directive on shunning?.
asking for a family member.
Active Apostates are still considered persona non grata.
What this means is that, anyone who believes they can be saved by the blood of Jesus alone, they will still be viewed as a filthy Babylonish Whore and avoided all costs.
So, if you come to Jesus as he invited, talk to him like he instructed, and accept his deal for peace with God in the new covenant, you will never see your family again, your name will be permanently smeared and you can forget about any family inheritance. You may not even be notified if your mother gets sick and is put in Hospice to die (like what happened to me). When I asked my father in person, "Where is mom?. He said her ashes were in the backyard lawnmower shed.
But, if an XJW is willing to continue their rebellion against the authority of Jesus after they leave, you will now be thrown an emotional bone now and then..... a few scraps from the family table.

This is a pretty seismic policy shift in how df-ing, er, “removal” will be done. As written, pretty much the only people who will ever be “removed” from this point forward are brazen apostates
Not really. As you astutely pointed out above, the central reason for shhunning is to deny freedom of religion to the public. I believe this has always been the central reason for the policy. For the poor soul who, after baptism happens to figure out that according to WT Jesus isn't your Mediator, and the New Covenant is "forgiveness of sins" (Mt. 26:27-28), and not government leadership positions, nothing has changed.
Try walking into a Kingdom Hall and telling your relatives that Jesus is your personal savior and that you are born again and see what happens. They will be screaming that you have a demon.
