What changes would JW.org need to make to become a normal Christian denomination.

by UnshackleTheChains in

i am interested in getting people's thoughts on this.

on average 40 thousand people leave the organisation yearly for one reason or another.

the experiences all over the media are proof of this.

I am interested in getting people's thoughts on this. On average 40 thousand people leave the organisation yearly for one reason or another. The experiences all over the media are proof of this. So obviously something is seriously wrong.

Like scientologists and the moonies, Jehovahs Witness, appear to be stigmatized as a 'cult' by Joe Public

The religion of Jehovahs Witnesses is clearly anything but normal. So in your opinion, what would the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society/JW.org need to change

A/ to become a normal Christian faith group in which its members are a happy AND proud to be JW's

B/ to stop the haemorrhaging of its members.

C/ to rid themselves of being stigmatized a cult by Joe public and thus more appealing as a Christian organisation.

Oct 2017 WT again shunning instructions

And yet the elders guidebook Shepherd The Flock Of God, page 116 paragraph 6 states:

I feel so sorry for the individuals who truly believed what the GB spraff in their publications about shunning relatives. Especially the ones who for years have been 'loyal' to the publishing corporation and actually broke of all connections with df'd relatives.

Yet, how many of these ones are aware of what the shepherd the flock of God book days on the matter as per above.

Thanks for highlighting this pale emporer

chasing me for a report

by Phoebe in

jw
friends

i'm fairly new on here and i've told a lot of my story but to recap, after 60 odd years i've stopped going to the meetings.

my husband had already left the truth years ago and my children didn't become jws.(phew!).

i had a horrendous childhood growing up as a witness which included sexual assault by a close relative, also a jw.

They have some kind of obsession with reporting. When I was on a fade for 6 months, I received an email each month asking for a report.

These guys are seriously bat shit crazy.

Never mind the fact that my spirituality is obviously not good. Where is the shepherds looking for the lost sheep? What a joke. No...a piece of paper with some stats is more important. Sheez

Subliminal images - why and who are the individuals behind it?

by UnshackleTheChains in

i remember about 5 years ago reading on another site about subliminal images in wt literature.

i honestly thought it a load of bs until i checked out one glaringly obvious image of a creepy skull in clouds within the knowledge book.

i was shocked and even showed my wife at the time who thought it was creepy.. so my question is why?

UnshackleTheChains

Here is the image when I put it against a mirror. The page can also be folded which even looks clearer

Accidental or purposely done?. You decide

Hypocrisy of JW.org at this week's book study

by UnshackleTheChains in

a paragraph taken from this week's study of 'gods kingdom rules.

15 jehovah’s people remain loyal to the messianic kingdom not only by refusing military service but also by respectfully declining to join in nationalistic ceremonies.

especially since the outbreak of world war ii, a wave of nationalistic fervor has swept the globe.

UnshackleTheChains

However, we give our exclusive devotion to Jehovah.

Just to highlight what is mentioned in par 15 again from this week's book study.

That's the one thing that gets on my goat is hanging the flag on KH buildings in Chile. It was so outrageous that I remember at the time the story was breaking that I thought it was an apostate conspiracy. I even labeled it BS. Wt you just blow my mind.

It's fascinating how families are frowned upon or dissuaded by WT in allowing their kids to join their school sports team etc; and yet when its in WT interests, eg (WT being a member of the UN as an NGO) they bend the rules.

GB speaking with forked tongue imo.
