  gaslighting is a form of sustained manipulation that causes the victim to question or doubt their sanity, judgment and memories.

  it’s a form of emotional abuse.

  i think jehovah’s witnesses have been gaslit.

  Minimus,

  If I thought the Watchtower had the Truth, If I thought Knorr had the Truth I would not be here.
  

  I am here because I am in need of some company.

  I am in need of being able to speak freely what is in my heart and mind.

  I believe in God is that okay here?

  Minimus,

  I know, I know. I read Ray's books.
  

  Is there any religion that is without fault?

  Hey, I'm just talking about my youth. It was good.

  I cannot go back but that does not mean I forget the good I experienced there.

  I recognize that, that was not what everyone experienced. Yet, many did.

  I will not lie about it.

  Minimus,

  I liked those days. I liked Knorr. I liked the conventions. I liked the volunteering. I liked the witnessing door to door with friends. I liked the gatherings. I liked going to movies together. I liked it all.

  I liked learning about the Bible.

  It was the change after 1975 that I did not like.

  It was a mistake to put a committee in charge. A group of men, the Governing Body, in charge. Too many cooks in the kitchen.

  To Simon,

  I believe taking courses at community colleges such as nursing is now allowed.

  But you are correct uni courses are the enemy of those who prefer to keep their members ignorant.

  Ignorant of what is a mystery.

  Minimus,

  I liked the teachings of the Bible. The love of God and neighbor. We were encouraged to read and learn the Bible. We had what we thought were "deep" publications, we were happy with our lives in the Watchtower. Well, at least my friends were.

  Volunteering at the International Conventions, my goodness, how good that was. Eating with hundreds, thousands, who stood at tables at Yankee Stadium while we expressed our appeciation for the brothers and sisters who made it possible. Myself along with hundreds, filled fruit bags in the bowels of the old Yankee Stadium with the convention talks piped in. It was all good.

  Yes, it was good. Unitil 1975 when their pride got the best of them and they started to first blame the brotherhood. The current Governing Body went even further with their lying video they spread among the brothers.

  They claim to fear Jehovah but their actions call that a lie!

  The current GB is absolutely gaslighting, they are manipulative liars.

  Knorr and company truely believed but they were misled by Russell's teachings. The whole invisible presence teaching Russell taught is wrong.

  No. I have not been gaslit.

  I liked what Knorr taught in the 50's and 60's it was good.

  Not to say it was perfect but what man or woman is perfect?
