The whole slew of possible sins such alcohol abuse, corrupt business affairs, adultery, child abuse even murder.
Then you get on the sins of the top GB leaders and their onerous false doctrines which end up killing and destroying people's lives.
i know a lot of witnesses that drink a lot!
secret sins people would confess to the elders were masturbation, dating and touching certain areas and anger issues.
some fathers/husbands looked like model figures until you heard from the family that the dictator ms were horrible at home in more ways than one..

jehovah can't be your father in this life.
'they [jw members] address him prospectively as "our father.
jesus is not your mediator:.
How about the fact that you have to make a personal vow of servitude and loyalty to the GB members of the organization (GB) who they now claim are the Faithful, Discrete Slave.
This happens at the talk just before baptism.
freedom!
not having to adhere to man made rules and regulations.
not being afraid of maybe “stumbling “ someone..
I'm happy because I'm not suffocated with fear, ignorance oppression, exploitation and corruption by men who propagate these through their own self assumed redeemable sins and elevated self glorification .
Power corrupts , absolute power corrupts absolutely.
as a jw did you have a pioneer sister/elder's wife who was the biggest busybody, self righteous, arrogant pus in the circuit?
who would look down on others and treat people like crap.. without giving to much away, i experienced one that knew everyone in circuit.
and if she or her husband saw or heard something they didn't like it was " you know what the bible says" regardless if it was in there or not.
The JWS religion is full of self righteous arrogant people, right at the very top of the organization as well.
what is the purpose?
the skits are not real.
i have been assigned a reading again.
Kingdom Halls are the WTS's indoctrination training centers.
The WTS tries to stimulate people to become pioneers distributing the literature the WTS has published and has been doing so since the very beginning of the Watchtower Corporation in the late 1800's.
Plain and simple
The WTS/JWorg's top men cultivate more power, more money and more freely unpaid volunteers when people come into the organization and start participating.
Mind you they accomplish this feat by lying, deceiving and manipulating people through their own devised agenda of preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which scripturaly are really acts of apostasy and false prophesying.
during a recent conversation i had with someone, a question came up that i really don't know the answer to.
did jw's still drink during prohibition in the us during the 1920's until it's repeal in 1933?
was alcoholic beverages considered forbidden and possibly subject to disfellowshipping?.
Ratt , both

Judge Rutherford condemned prohibition at the time and smuggled illegal booze for himself while he lived at the luxury home called Beth Sarim.
He always drove a extremely high priced Cadillac too just like Anthony Morris the noted boozer in today's GB members.
What about obeying Caesars laws as the bible says.
There are many elements of hypocrisy in the JWS from the top down.
why are wt determined to relate the "founding of the world" to abel and "before the founding of the world" to a period before abel but after adam's sin?
there seems like a lot of twisting of verses and words to prove a point which always makes me suspicious of their motives!
(i have my own take on it but would like to hear others).
You need to twist stories to create something to appear factual, the mythological writings in Genesis is a story which was told from people who were inherently ignorant to how the world actually came to be.
inspired by a previous post i wrote and thought it deserved a place of its own .. i hope it helps people on their journey out of the wt/jw religion .. their is no going back after discovering the "truth" about the wt/jw religion.. its the path of freedom from enslavement to a man made religious organization that was born in america, a nation that has spawned numerous charlatan religious organizations, especially in the 1700`s to 1900`s .and even beyond..
The WTS/JWS has been a long stand act of profiteering through false prophesying..
Nevermore so than now can this be acknowledged, they still front themselves with
lies but behind the curtain is the real truth.
Preaching the Gospel without accurate truthful adherence is sinning and is not righteous in the eyes of god..

The WTS wants to mentally indoctrinate people with their doctrines and bible interpretations so they can mentally exploit and manipulate people to their will, desire and sustain a semblance of power over people, while preaching a false gospel of Jesus Christ as a practicing agenda.
"The Truth" of Christianity is in the bible , not the Watchtower Corporation.
