Not to find any excuse for anything, but Chessa Manion doesn't look herself... She looks ill, like she lost it!
Troubled upbringing, troubled life, troubled results! And another victim!

Because I’m a former Catholic and got tired of all the idolatry and veneration if Mary and Saints.
There are tons of idolatry in JWs to the Organization and to the Governing Body. They may tell you otherwise, but they'll be lying to you!

History repeated: pre-1975 trend of selling homes to ‘downsize’
by LongHairGal ini saw this thread on reddit.
i think the reason for this is that the 1975 fiasco is never mentioned in the jw religion.
nobody mentioned it to me when i came in the years after.. the problem with this is that all the sad stories were never told (or hushed up) of people who sold off homes, etc.

I was born in 1970. I was five in 1975. I started studying with JWs when I was 18/19 and no one ever mentioned that fiasco!!! Only when I started doing my research did I become aware of it! They are really good at hiding their dark side...

Don't forget that the foundations of Jehovah's Witnesses have very little biblical support, and I'm being euphemistical...
