Why the legal existence of this one organization is being attacked? Is there any background story? What is the legal base for singling out this one organization? Without any background it sounds like a vindictive witch hunt.

PORTUGAL: Filed a petition to the parliament to erase the legal entity of the Jehovah's Witness
by EdenOne inbased on legal arguments that revolve around violations of several articles of the portuguese constitution, and of the law of religious freedom, a petition to the portuguese parliament has been set in motion to extinguish the legal entity that represents the jehovah's witness in portugal and remove this community from the national register of recognized religions protected by law.
the petition does not seek to ban the jehovah's witness as a whole in the country.
the petition denounces the institutional policy of shunning former members as a violation of basic human rights and psychological torture, and asks the portuguese legislators and judicial authorities to take action to stop this abuse, and suspend legal recognition to the branch office entity until the policies of shunning are changed.

“But you know what? They’re helping the young people.”
Cognitive dissonance at its best.

Child sexual abuse is not a good thing, but why limiting the maps to just one crime?

Sign of apostasy
by Ireneus inelders arranged a sort of informal visit by a more capable elder accompanied by another brother who is more qualified than me from academic background.
their purpose was to reason with me as a last resort to avoid a jc.. during the two-hour discussion, i could make my point clear to them: “i don’t think any one particular religion has the whole truth.
it may be existing as bits and piece in all religions and schools of thought.

‘This is a sign of apostasy,’ they responded.
I hope that doesn't surprise you. For what I can see, maybe what they had in mind in bringing "key people" to meet with you may be more of an intimidation tactic. I'm glad that you were able to talk to them exactly as you feel.

About a type of cult - not religious. Just a movie. However, about had several earmarks of a cult. Mind control, falsely making friendship for gaining sex slaves, willing to kill, even slaves willing to kill, false fronts.
Many, after one finely discovers a cult, one can spot others, of any kind, more easily.
Most people I know loved that movie. I didn't. I'm just sick and tired of that racial shit that's going on in USA. Why on Earth do I want to watch more of that crap and pay for it.
I wouldn't say it has a parallel with a cult at all. Unlike in a cult, the black people in the movie were not brainwash by persuasion; they were surgically altered to serve white people. That's not exactly how things happen in a cult.

by ducatijoe inthose of us here wasting our time trying to show who trump really is .... it's like trying to reason with all those still in the organization.

Its stone cold laughable to call someone who supports a policy decision of the president “in a new cult” when the same thing could be easily said of those who disagree with a policy decision simply because it came from trump.
Actually, you are the one using the cult card. As I said in my post, one thing is agreeing with that vulgar pig, a different one is being brainwashed. Typical Trump follower, everything they don't like hearing about is "a card". The "race card" the "woman card", blah blah blah. I am playing the "I am 100% right" card.

Have you ever gone back to a meeting out of curiosity?
by stuckinarut2 injust wondering if anyone has gone back to a meeting out of curiosity?
(perhaps to an area far from your old khall where you know no one).
with all the changes from 2012 onwards (videos, tv screens, new meeting format, new songs etc) it would be an odd experience to be in attendance!.

So has anyone visited a meeting recently?
Thoughts?
No. I meant business when I decided to leave and not go back. My goal since I left was to detach and minimize the influence of that organization in my life. That's why I can't care less what they do, continue doing, stop doing, talk to, changed, none of that matters to me.
I am not part of that organization by choice. Why on Earth would I want to follow what they do?

I am out of the WBTS and free. No one will ever tell me how to think.
And Hothbanero, For you sake if this rule of 1 man in DC continues..... I hope YOU are financially secure.... I am.
If you are not.... your fucked
I agree, but people can express themselves any way they want. Please keep emphasizing that some people are still under the influence of the WT and its mindset, and it's brainwashing. Have you heard of the term "cult shopping"? That is when people who learn TTATT in one cult are not yet ready to let o of the behaviors typical of the brainwashed cult follower, and ends up in another type of group or relationship in which they can continue such behavior.
I think that's the case with some of those Trump hardcore fans (and other people with other believes and customs, of course, but this thread is specifically about those Trump ass lickers). They are not ready to face reality and let go just yet. It's part of their process.
One thing is agreeing with that vulgar pig, another one is what we see in some people's posts here. you can tell the difference.
