i'm new to the forum.
i'm an ex-jw who actually faded from jws.
i'm here to drop by every once in a while to ask a question or two.
So do some believe that a perfect all powerful ,all knowing god started the evolutionary process and took hundreds of thousands of years till he got to a perfect couple and then they mess it all up ?
dear brothers, july 27, 2020. in 1919, the president of the watchtower society made a bold prediction, “millions now living will never die”.
that quotation was constantly repeated by the organization till the year 2000 when they realized that everyone in attendance at that assembly, who listened to j.r. rutherford repeat those words, are dead.. that teaching has guided my life.
statements were repeatedly made at assemblies, conventions and in print that there was no career in “this system of things” so you don’t need a job with benefits or retirement, your fulltime job is to “preach the good news”!
A thoughtful and kind but to the point letter , why not include article 9 of your basic human rights.
Right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion, the right to change his religion or belief and freedom.
As the org would like to be applied to the JWs in Russia so they can practice their beliefs in freedom .
i was six, not given any choice.
i remember being in the old kh, and my dad told me the brothers wanted to talk to me in the back...i was terrified.
i actually thought they knew i didn’t want to be a dub, my dad told them to just add me as a publisher, so no back room meeting.
About 6-7 when you could charge for the mags it was how my father got us out on a Saturday because we could keep the extra charge for the public, saved him giving us pocket money and as a kid people felt sorry for you and sometimes gave extra ,spent on sweets 😀😁
do you think there is a group or individuals that have taken the role as slave class and fulfilled the requirement?
think they all failed miserable.
But If there were a slave class they have fulfilled there role by physiological manipulation and coercive control and other types of abuses.

And country's like Pakistan, Egypt, Iran , turkey, Sudan, Saudi Arabia etc with over 90% of there population are Muslim are going to let the UN to stop them worshiping Allah .
And as biahi said kids should not be exposed to videos like that,and would not be allowed to watch such videos if produced by anyone else.
there's yet another talk to add to the list of talks written specifically for damage control against "apostates".
the speaker says, "some who were once part of the christian congregation attempt to mislead us", that they tell "false accusations" & "lies".
to combat this, he says that you should "protect your ears from damaging noise by not listening to it", comparing it to wearing "noise canceling headphones".
A narcissistic abuser will project their bad conduct on their victims and blame them , so the governing body is misleading and making false accusations and lying to their followers .
I think that they know exactly what they are doing ,a narcissist will never admit that they are wrong and will deny any evidence that clearly proves them wrong as lies.
i dont hold any doctorate degree in human psychology but if you look at the jws from a layman's perspective of whats going on inside the head of your typical jws it isn't that are hard to understand.
if you haven't noticed the jws have the propensity to reiterate word for word what the wts teaches and fills the heads of people who are strongly attached to the jws religion.. in short the wts tells people what to think and what to say about various topics, theology based or otherwise.
how that comes about is the wholehearted acceptance that what comes to the readers off the pages of the wts's literature, has come from god's chosen earthly mediators the gb men.
Gaslighting , manipulation & coercive control
It must be a cult
you of course remember the fabulous chariot charging about, eyes everywhere, wheels within wheels.
(elon musk be afraid).
yes, able to change direction instantly, react to any situation.
It was only fueled till 1975 so been running on fumes since then, finally empty 😀😂
the amazing exoneration of info sekta in swiss court has finally reinforced the proper way to exit an abusive cult.. never write a letter of disassociation.
- no need to invoke shepherding or judicial action from elders.
make a written, dated statement of your free-will choice to have abandoned the jw religion - secure this document with a friend -a trusted friend (not the jw kind).
A notarized letter is a great idea but as phizzy said "if you threatened legal action, you must intend to go through with it"
A average JW would probably not have the funds to follow through with legal action and the elders will also know if the person had the means to see it through, if they do have the money they would possibly accept the letter and do nothing.
And the way JW lawyers have treated others that have taken the org to court we can be sure that they will be as difficult as possible to increase the costs and drag it out as long as they can, and if they lose they will appeal to drag it even more.
