i've been having mixed feelings about the gb whether or not their intentions are good or not.

the fact they have a protocol of moral lying through "theocratic warfare" very much turned me off from having anything to do with the org.

I agree with the point about trusting in men, I apologize if my post came off as a bit scattered. The point I was trying to make in connection with the video I linked, was that I felt the people in my life, weren't transparent with me and the nature of life itself. Regardless, I probably deserved whatever suffering I put myself through for what I believed and acted on, and now I just have to grow from it all.

I'm a former member that has been out for the past few months and have been doing a lot of personal research. I've been having mixed feelings about the GB whether or not their intentions are good or not. The fact they have a protocol of moral lying through "theocratic warfare" very much turned me off from having anything to do with the ORG. After a while, I came across the principle "piccac nephesh", which gives the grounds to break mosaic law if life was in immediate danger, including lying to save someones life. I consider if everyone in my life who was JW ever really believed in the religion, or if everyone was in this group for the sake that they felt by feeding me a facade, they would preserve my will to go on living. Just as it was when God told the angels that adam and eve have become like them knowing good and bad, so is it the same for Watchtower and those who wake up and either be shunned and cut off or accept initiation?
