  i just watched the live feed from the russian court room and followed the updates on the russian exjw forum.. just waiting for confirmation from other sources...but, it looks like the final (and expected) result is:.

  banned.

  which means that the wts property in russia now belongs to the russian state..

  How do you ban supporters feel knowing that the GB has yet another persecution horse to beat?

  For me? I'm devastated because I know how well this ban will play to the cognitive biases of my family who are still in.

  Shame.

  Could a petition to make shunning illegal work?

  by aboveusonlysky in

  we're currently watching leah remini's series about scientology and the main thing she seems to focus on is the shunning policies of the scientology organization which let's face it are very similar to jw procedure.. i was wondering with all that's in the media recently about bullying could a petition be put together to get the goverment to consider making religiously mandated shunning illegal?

  has such a thing been tried before?.

  https://petition.parliament.uk/help says the following - .

  Am I right in saying that in Bulgaria it's illegal for someone to be disfellowshipped for having a blood transfusion?

  You aren't disfellowshipped anymore for accepting a blood transfusion. They say that you have disassociated yourself.

  We all know that's the same thing. But it's worded differently so is a loophole.

  Dear supporters of Russia's JW Ban:

  this is the kind of government you are supporting.. over 100 gay men have been sent to concentration camps for homosexuals in chechnya and three people have been killed.. stop supporting fascism.. if you support the russia jw ban, what other thoughts and beliefs are you ok with policing?.

  if you support the jw russia ban, have you read george orwell's 1984?

  don't you realize you are advocating for literal fascism when you support the banning of a belief system?

  Fascism = when business controls government

  You might want to read up on Fascism.

  It can be defined as "a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control"... That's what's occurring. Beyond your semantics, this ban is an affront to liberty and freedom.

  You wanna talk about being myopic? BANS DON'T WORK ON JWs. We already know this. Yet some think banning the entire religion is A-OK in their book.

  JW's take bans, and use it as fuel for propaganda like this:

  STOP SUPPORTING FASCISM.

  If you support the Russia JW ban, what other thoughts and beliefs are you OK with policing?

  If you support the JW Russia ban, have you read George Orwell's 1984? Don't you realize you are advocating for LITERAL fascism when you support the banning of a belief system?

  STOP BEING A FASCIST.

  "But what about the children!"

  Yes, children are vulnerable in the organization.

  If you're so concerned about JW children in Russia, you should realize that a ban will not save them. It will actually hurt more JW children because the organization's activity will be driven underground, further isolating them and playing to their confirmation bias that it's the "truth."

  STOP SUPPORTING FASCISM.

  Apologists saying that the JWs shouldn't be banned, what the hell!??

  by Crazyguy in

  it's been brought to my attention that there are xjw that say they support the witnesses and don't think russia should ban them.

  i would just like to remind all of you that jws are guilty of murder, causing higher rates of suicide, covering up child molestation, and keeping members in prisoned because if they leave they loose family, financial support, possible employment etc.. sure their not strapping bombs to their chests but they easily get members to kill themselves with their blood policies.

  they are an extremist group!

  SO, do you all REALLY want Russia to be the ones to ban Jehovah's Witnesses? Sacrificing relatives in a concentration is for the greater good?

  Bunch of f*cking fascists.

  I'm ashamed of the apostate community for not condemning this ban wholesale.

  Let's remember that if genuine refugees had a choice, they wouldn't choose to be refugees.

  pesident trump authorized the missile strike because “it is in the vital, national security interest of the united states to prevent and deter the use of deadly chemical weapons.” .

  59 tomahawk missiles were launched from two us navy ships.. russia has condemned the action.. https://youtu.be/4svp3yfneyq.
