Lets Insult Christmas Public WT Now Up on jw.org

by LostGeneration in

might need a vomit bag as your read through this one..... http://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/.

one gem on page six where we have "helping the needy" as the headline - i wonder which "organization" they might be referring to?.

could you set aside, or budget, some money.

Their faith is so frail, flimsy and false that it can't stand up to any intelligent scrutiny . They are trained
directly by there governing body elites not to engage opposers/critics in reasoned conversation .

Here's a quote from their Watchtower mag.

*** w 2011 7/15 p. 16 par. 7 Will You Heed Jehovah's Clear Warnings? ***

"What is involved in avoiding false teachers? We do not receive them into our homes or greet them. We also refuse to read their literature, watch TV programs that feature them, examine their Web sites, or add our comments to their blogs. Why do we take such a firm stand? Because of love. We love "the God of truth," so we are not interested in twisted teachings that contradict his Word of truth. "

Raised a 3rd gen JW it was all I knew but , I never felt good about the things that just didnt add up.

WHy didnt we do things with non witness relatives I loved them all?

Why were these good people I loved going to die in the great trib?

Why can't I participate with my peers at school?

From childhood I noticed how honest authors fully cited sources in books and the Governing body did not this always bugged me.

Etc Etc

I think having to push all the doubts into a big pile and ignore them , resulted in a type of self delusion .

Surviving decades in a self deluded state can have marked mental consequences . Talking to several Docs they concur .

Being a witness with any critical thinking skills at all can lead to severe depression .

If you can suppress your critical thinking (independent thinking) successfully then witnesses can be somewhat happy .

Until yrs later when they realize they've grown old and unfulfilled . Working jobs, never having a career.

Becoming aware that all the priveleges were in reality just unpaid volunteer work for a Publishing company.

Like Don Cameron said in his book its being a "Captive to a Concept" in a mind prison . Just like stockholm syndrome .

Just like the deluded elders in JWstruggles videos . Everytime he made a point they would just intone "but its still Jehovahs org"

Like robots . Happy happy Joy Joy
