ok so i know that this is a very long article about mental illness issues, but it was the definitions at the start of the discussion which reminded me of the wt organisation.

i was musing on how many small churches there are.
a single congregation made of moderate income people.
often the pastor has a job on the side.
I remember a person who was studying being puzzled by the lack of halls in the district.
They asked if Christendom was the false religion and the JWs were the true, why is it that every town and village had a church or more whereas the Witnesses had only one every 60 miles or so?
At the time we reasoned the usual "Satan's blinded the minds etc," but in time we moved around to their way of thinking.
It's good to ask questions. Eventually you wake up and leave.

step 1. we admitted we were powerless under a tyrannical man made mindset to which we surrendered our power and self determination.
our self honesty and need to rescue our sanity led us to fade, walk away, or disfellowship our slave masters.
jehovah's witnesses are nothing more than a business enterprise set up by, c.t.
@victor
Very well summarised. 👏👏
regarding prophecies, i can’t name one thing jws have been correct about.
as a matter of fact nothing stands out to me that shows the witnesses have the truth..
That the World would hate you.
The world hates them because they recognise that they are a cult and a collection of very weird people.
i was watching a news report last night on the homeless people in chicago, who were living outdoors in extreme cold and snow.
the homeless were seen living under bridges and street tunnels.. a missionary church called ''the night ministry'' was driving around helping the homeless with water, food , blankets and free rides to a local hospital if they were in need of medical care.
talk about following the words of jesus!.
It is one of the things that made me leave. The WT doesn't lift a finger to help those in need in the local community or farther afield.
I remember going back to the time of the Romanian Orphan crisis, one brother happily told the congregation in an answer that a member of his family, with connections to a pentecostal church, were getting together donations and money to send volunteers and a lorry load of supplies from the UK out to Romania. This relative asked him for a donation to buy blankets for the kiddies.
He told everyone that he declared "those children don't need food and clothes. What they need is God's Word and the hope of a better life. Take them Bibles if you really want to help them!"
I was gobsmacked and disgusted by his statement, which he was revelling in. And was applauded for by other brothers. I thought to myself that this is not the attitude of a true Christian. Since then I started giving my monthly donation to the charity shop run by the group his relative belonged to, for although I don't want their religion, I do see them out in the local community and farther afield helping people with nothing and in real need.
ok, so i know that the following article is from a roman catholic church blogger, but i thought that his ratios and comparisons were very well set out, if anyone else is interested.

this guy was not a born in and did not really work his way up from the very bottom.
he kind of got some kind of fast track.
its a bit strange.
In the published JW lifestory of TM he said that the person who studied with him was of the anointed.
He probably learned the right words to say plus the appropriate masonic-style handshakes etc.
