How do religious cults control people ?
Through fear (superstition), lies, ignorance and propagating supportive information only.
Put all of those endeavors together and you can form a following or cult.

I think Splane is the Cult Leader. And I think there are more apostates working on the inside than we can imagine.
by pistolpete inso in the latest leaked video, splane goes on this crazy delusional rant about how faithful witnesses should never research their faith.. he criticizes the worldly court system and says they are not fair toward witnesses and the organization.
he says the court system is rigged and witnesses who get convicted, (implied child sex abusers) are innocent.
he is literally trying to justify child molesters and elders who cover them, as good people in "god's eyes" even though "human authorities" may judge them and put them in jail.

Please Keep Your Comments 30 Seconds or Less
by IWant2Leave inafter listening to the zoom meetings the past two weeks, i started to wonder, what is the real purpose for such short comments.
policy for 5 or more years now.
supposedly, it is so more can comment.

Becasue they want people to reiterate exactly whats in the written paragraph and not waste time or extend time which inevitably screws up the allotted time for the entire WT study.
This happens a few times where someone prolongs their answers far away and above what is deemed appropriate or necessary.

STUDY ARTICLE When a Loved One Leaves Jehovah
by RULES & REGULATIONS inthe watchtower—study edition | september 2021. study article 39. when a loved one leaves jehovah.
2 think how heartbroken jehovah must have been when members of his own angelic family turned their back on him!
(jude 6) and imagine how hurt he was at seeing his beloved people, the israelites, rebel against him time and again.

The truthful reality is when people leave the JWS they are not leaving Jehovah's organization they are leaving an organization that was devised by apostate sinning men (false prophets) who took the power of god upon themselves for themselves, they were the true unloyal opposers of Jehovah and Jesus from the beginning, in spite of the fact they said they were god's solemn chosen ones.

Statements or Comments Made By JWs That Were WRONG
by minimus injehovah’s witnesses claim to be the only religion that has the truth.
they claim to be representing god himself.
can you think of anything that you could use to prove that the witnesses do not have the truth?.

In 1919 the then top leader of the JWS J Rutherford said that god had exclusively chosen him and the organization as Jehovah's select messengers for all mankind because of their righteous adherence to preaching the true Gospel of Jesus Christ and his new kingdom order to come.
Probably and notably the biggest culpable lie any individual JWS ever made in the history of the organization..

David Splane's apostate warning convention talk
by neat blue dog ini know this recent video has been talked about already but i just watched it and here are a few things that got me annoyed as usual:.
splane says that if a bible student says he saw some negative information from apostates and asks us to explain it, we shouldn't look at it or address anything specifically, but instead we should tell them to go to meetings and hear what we have to say about ourselves and also tell them to befriend people at the hall.
for any person with integrity and/or intelligence, this is not a satisfactory answer.

What Splane is trying to assert is that ex-jws who oppose the doctrines of the JWS religion are evil and spiritually dangerous to listen to those who are baptized participating members.
The reality is that this self described Christian organization is inherently false and apostate scripturaly, which is opposed to Jehovah and Jesus Christ's instructions in preaching his Gospel, drafted out by men who were truly apostate and evil (sinful) in their personal literature proliferation agenda.
In short the Watchtower Corporation was always apostate in nature.

And what Splane really hates about JWs apostates is that many times they tell the truth about the Org and its doctrines which have killed thousands.

Since You Have Left The Religion Are You Happier?
by minimus ini realize that some activist exjws really don’t seem to be happy in life.
they finally got away from the organization and yet seem still negatively connected to it.
some exjws are always upset because of what the “truth “ did to their lives, which is understandable.

It might be easy to assume that ex-jws are unhappy due to the negativity they express here on JWD, mostly related to the JWS religion and what it did to them.
Their complaints are valid though, the JWS religion is full of infliction of crippling harm particularly to ones psychological health.
Born ins like myself can relate to what kind of emotional harm this religious cult effects people from children to adults, male or female.
If you don't physically die from this cult such as refusing a blood transfusion, then it will certainly kill you intellectually and psychologically in the long run.
Oh yes by the way I've been much happier out this religion but still sad that it is still around harming people in the way it does.

Did You Feel Special Because You Were An Elder or Friend or Family Of?
by minimus infor many families, they received the golden ticket once a family member became an elder.
the glory and admiration of being an elder seeped right thru to all the elder’s connections.
if you got into some trouble, having an elder friend or relative could give you the stay out of jail card.

Ralph Walls implausible 2021 Convention field service story
by RULES & REGULATIONS inanother implausible field service story told by ralph walls at the 2021 convention.
get ready for this unrealistic, stupid, dull and boring, made up fiction that is presented at this assembly.. some years ago ( tells a story but doesn't know exact date ), a brother ( doesn't give his name ) in mexico ( doesn't name the town) from the rurals, dressed in a very simple garb ( to show he was not showy ) knocked at the door of a palatial mansion.
( a very rich ''worldly'' person must live here ).

False prophet apostasy is a bag of gold.
That one would make even Jehovah laugh
