My "Un-Witnessing" Comments for this Upcoming Sunday's Watchtower.
by objectivetruth ini won't be there (fortunately) but perhaps my warm encouragement and hard work, in preparing these comments will help someone, who has the burden of attending the meetings, give a good un-witness.. 3. while on earth, how did jesus follow his fathers example?.
answer - jesus at john 9:4 gave us a very important reminder, he said "we must do the works of the one who sent me while it is day; the night is coming when no man can work.
" the figurative night that jesus was likely referencing was amos 5:18 where it says "woe to those who yearn for the day of jehovah!

I see the "un-witnessing" part of your comments, but unfortunately unless you are more direct it will go over most of their heads. They would congratulate you afterwards about how much research you must have done and how great the comments were.

As messed up as the Family Court system is, even they can see the insanity of not allowing basic, common, healthy activities. We need a resource of quotes which demonize extracurricular activities so we can counter their lying pamphlet given to the JW parent and attorneys to give a false impression to the court. They try to make it clear how normal they are, when they are a filthy cult and a very unhealthy place for children.
I guess I turned out ok, but I have social anxiety and am somewhat awkward in crowds and social occasions. I know this is due to my JW upbringing. So many have memories of going to camp, playing in a band, playing sports, having a good variety of friends, college, partying, dating, and just being a kid/teen/young adult. I have been robbed of that, and I can never get those years back. I got a job at 18, married at 19, kid at 21. I never lived. Im not saying I cant have a happy future, but they robbed me of what could have been prime formative years of my life. I resent that.
Good for this court and Judge. I hope more rulings like it follow here in the states.

When you get married as a JW it is not a true marriage of two people. They include Jehovah as part of a "divine threesome" as it were. The problem is that "Jehovah" really equals the GB! Since marriage mates are told during the wedding talk that they are supposed to love Jehovah *ahem* (GB) more than their own spouse and children, this explains why marriages often crumble when one party finds out TTATT.
Like my wife, many buy into the idea that if you leave the TWOOF, this severs the agreed upon "threefold cord" and therefore the marriage is doomed to failure. I dont know how the rationalize how "worldly people" sometimes have happy marriages lasting decades when all they have apparently is a lousy two fold cord. Its just another facet of the deep tree root like system of mind control..

I dont agree with their tactics. However to stand silently at the gate with a couple signs with a thoughtul message on it, along with JWfacts may do much more good and much less harm.
