Should some people actually be Witnesses?
by Apognophos init seems to me like certain people actually benefit from joining the religion.
primarily i'm thinking of ones with drug problems who are only able to quit because they are working towards baptism.
another example would be those who are always getting in fights or who have a big ego, and who learn to be pacifistic and humble as a witness.

Shit is shit whichever way you look at it !
Next thing you know people will be villifying drunkards, druggies saying it helps them cope better with their problems, pain etc so it is beneficial to some. Serial killers, rapists who say it gives them some release (i have heard it said).
I totally disagree.SHIT IS SHIT WHICHEVER WAY YOU LOOK AT IT !

My Pay No Attention to the Man Behind the Curtain Moment...
by HiddenPimo inthis is my first post.
i am physically in and mentally out.
well i will not be offering a tl/dr version as that would be too difficult and it would also be an oversimplification of how i got to see the man behind the curtain.. my story begins at the 2016 regional convention of jehovah's witnesses.

Welcome Hidden Pimo,
Thank you for sharing your story.
I also was crying when I saw the video.I was crying for myself as Ihad just woken up to TTATT and was emotionally raw and in pain .I was crying for dying a spiritual death at that convention. Bros and siss thought that i was so touched by the video. That was a very ,very sad day for me,as I still feel that a part of me died altogether that day at that very convention.
I am POMO now till the day of reckoning from the eldubs to check whats going on with me .

" spend massive amounts of time away from his family to shepherd the flock, prepare talks, travelling to give talks and judging others in judicial committees."
If you mean 5 minutes as Massive in the car just to pull out a verse to discuss with the person they are going to shepherd;then yeah thats so much effort and sacrifice ! I am grateful for that....noooooot !
I have seen these elders come to the house ,then sit in the car and discuss what to say just before knocking on the door. So much Holy Shit working on them.
If you mean during the meeting preparing for the talk they are about to give, then hell ya what a sacrificing brother he is ......noooot ! (seen this often too).
If you mean travelling to their best buddy's house for the day/weekend, on the pretense of giving a talk, wow unbelievable sacrifice of Massive time . I take my hat off to them....nooooot !
All a farce.

A Lighter Note
by ZindagiNaMilegiDobaara ina cowboy rode into town and stopped at a saloon for a drink.
unfortunately, the locals always had a habit of picking on strangers, which he was.when he finished his drink, he found his horse had been stolen.
he went back into the bar, handily flipped his gun into the air, caught it above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the ceiling.. "which one of you sidewinders stole my horse?!

A cowboy rode into town and stopped at a saloon for a drink. Unfortunately, the locals always had a habit of picking on strangers, which he was.When he finished his drink, he found his horse had been stolen. He went back into the bar, handily flipped his gun into the air, caught it above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the ceiling.
"Which one of you sidewinders stole my horse?!" he yelled with surprising forcefulness.
No one answered.
"Alright, I'm gonna have another beer, and if my horse ain't back outside by the time I finish, I'm gonna do what I dun in Texas! And I don't like to have to do what I dun in Texas!"
Some of the locals shifted restlessly. The man, true to his word, had another beer, walked outside, and his horse has been returned to the post. He saddled up and started to ride out of town.
The bartender wandered out of the bar and asked, "Say partner, before you go... what happened in Texas?"
The cowboy turned back and said, "I had to walk home."
Have a great week all !
