Mandated Shunning is a Crime

by Lee Marsh in

mandated shunning is on the rise around the world with devastating effects on millions of people.

shunning that is mandated by organized groups to its members is a form of both physical and psychological violence against those people being shunned and cut off from their family and life-long relationships.

mandated shunning means that the shunning is ordered from the top down.

"The theme of this thread, or at least my comments in it, might be summarized as "please look at the net long-term consequences of what you propose"."

Dear MeanMrMustard, That is always wise counsel, to look at the net long-term consequences.

When you see the net long-term consequences of the government over-taxing income of certain people, does it move you to want the government to stop over-taxing income so that others don't get fleeced?

When a parent sees their child harmed by a vaccine, does it move that parent to want the big pharma company to stop making that vaccine so that other children don't get hurt?

When human rights activists see that some women are using abortion as birth control, does it move those human rights activists to want the courts to make abortions illegal so that other babies don't get killed?

"Maybe if we just got the government to seize all the WT property, drag the members, including the GB out into the streets and shoot them one at a time, declaring anyone who shuns their family will end up like this, that would stop this horrible tragedy."

No one here is proposing violence toward anyone on the GB or in the JWBorg organization. But it is not unreasonable for these people who have lost loved ones and know the pain that comes from the disfellowshipping doctrine to want to have the source of that pain removed so that others don't have to suffer in the same way.

The corporate structure of the WTBT$ is hurting people. It doesn't matter if the WTBT$ claims to be "religious". If the government overtaxed you and said they were doing it in the name of "religion" it'd still be overtaxing you and their claim for overtaxing you would be fraudulent, because God never told them to overtax anybody.

It's not a matter of the WTBT$ being "a religion". The WTBT$ is working as a governing entity of their own little world-wide empire. The Governing Body says they are doing things "in the name of religion" but some of those things are illegal according to their own "constitution". Since they are breaking their own rules, they are liable to lose their tax-exempt non-profit status and the legal backing for their registered corporate structure.

"Oh Lord, Thor, Zeus, or even the all mighty Eru Iluvatar, please grant these posters the ability to see more than one layer of cause and effect. Please I beg you!"

May the true God Jehovah grant you the ability to see that the WTBT$ isn't really a religion. It's a business scamming religious people. Bad businesses eventually get shut down when they cheat both the government and their victims. How much more so when they do it fraudulently "in the name of God!" Jehovah's going to let the governments tear down that WTBT$ corporate structure. Completely and unexpectedly to most people, and in a way so that everybody knows the WTBT$ didn't have His approval.

It'll be a lot like this for the WTBT$ (and all the other religious institutions that fleece their flocks and teach twisted doctrines)...

1 Kings 9:8,9

"And this house will become heaps of ruins. Everyone passing by it will stare in amazement and will whistle and say, ‘Why did Jehovah do that to this land and this house?’ Then they will say, ‘It was because they abandoned Jehovah their God, who had brought their forefathers out of the land of Egypt, and they embraced other gods and bowed down to them and served them. That is why Jehovah brought all this calamity on them.’"

The disfellowshipping doctrine is not a teaching of Jehovah. The disfellowshipping doctrine is a teaching of the false gods of the GB/FD$/WTBT$. Their bloodguilt for the disfellowshipping doctrine (and their other false doctrines) will come back upon their own heads. They have sown falsehood, and they will reap the consequences. One of those consequences will be losing their legal "corporate" status as a religious organization.

"KalebOutWest said: @EasyPrompt:
Remember the saying, "Give a man a fish, feed him for a day, but teach him to fish and feed him for a lifetime"?
My heartfelt answer is to lead you to go where you can find those answers from trustworthy, dependable sources. Who cares about my personal opinion? That "video" was produced by a group of professional scholars, teachers and rabbis who are experts on Judaism--they can answer the question best on what makes a Jew--and lead to further answers.
As to your final Scripture on Revelation 3:9, I don't know what you mean. All I can answer is have you never read Paul when he wrote: “Who are you to pass judgment on slaves of another? It is before their own lord that they stand or fall. And they will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make them stand.”--Romans 14:4.
And again:”Why do you pass judgment on your brother or sister? Or you, why do you despise your brother or sister? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God.”--Romans 14:10.
And again James when he wrote: “If you criticize and judge each other, then you are criticizing and judging God’s law. But your job is to obey the law, not to judge whether it applies to you. God alone, who gave the law, is the Judge. He alone has the power to save or to destroy. So what right do you have to judge your neighbor?”--James 4:11-12.
You're just upset that I posted a video that was relevant and you, who claimed you were an archeologist don't even know Arabic or Hebrew...are even making fun that I posted a relevant video. You are just acting like a big bully or even like troll -- but why?
Can't you act more decent online?"

I don't know what you're talking about, @KalebOutWest, I am not upset about anything. I commended you about being a fan of Jewish history, and then I commended you about knowing a lot about Jewish history because it's your culture, and then I asked for your expertise on something related to the scriptures. I didn't say anything bad about the video you posted, and just to show it I posted some videos I like too.

I think those are good scriptures you posted - it's a good idea not to judge people as bullies or trolls or when they are not bullies or trolls. If you feel I am not treating you decently, perhaps you could tell me what would make you feel more comfortable.🌷

Israel's first name was Jacob.

Jacob is sometimes called "Jake" for short.

Here's another version of "Rawhide" by Jake that I prefer to that one in the Fievel Goes West...

(I thought Abu was just monkeying around.)

Oh, you shared a video. @KalebOutWest, since you have grown up in the Jewish faith and culture and since you know so much about being a Jew and since that is who you are through and through, I thought you might be able to just answer my questions from your heart without sharing a video...

"Does the name "Jew" really come from the name "Judah"? Maybe you can tell me more about what you know about Judah...

When Joseph first prophesied regarding his brothers bowing down before him, Judah did not believe that Joseph was a true prophet. Do you think that later on when Judah bowed to Joseph in Egypt that Judah believed?

What do you think this verse means...

Revelation 3:9

"Look! I will make those from the synagogue of Satan who say they are Jews yet are not, but are lying—look! I will make them come and bow before your feet and make them know that I have loved you.""

AnonyMous said: "the Jews would’ve noted that Jesus was a spiritist or practicing witchcraft/divination as the few times seeing into the future is actually mentioned in the Bible (eg. Solomon consulting with the witch of Endor)"

Um, it was King Saul who went to the witch of Endor, not Solomon.

And as regards Jesus being a prophet, he himself confirmed...

John 4:17-26

"Jesus said to her: “You are right in saying, ‘I do not have a husband.’ For you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. This you have said truthfully.”

"The woman said to him: “Sir, I see that you are a prophet. Our forefathers worshipped on this mountain, but you people say that in Jerusalem is the place where people must worship.”

"Jesus said to her: “Believe me, woman, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, because salvation begins with the Jews. Nevertheless, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the true worshippers will worship the Father with spirit and truth, for indeed, the Father is looking for ones like these to worship him. God is a Spirit, and those worshipping him must worship with spirit and truth.”

"The woman said to him: “I know that Mes·siʹah is coming, who is called Christ. Whenever that one comes, he will declare all things to us openly.” Jesus said to her: “I am he, the one speaking to you.”"

Jesus did not deny that he was a prophet. If you want to deny it, @AnonyMous, that's between you and him.

Could this be the end of JWs? What are the consequences if it is?

by Teddnzo in

multiple very serious allegations against tony and then huge efforts to remove him from all pictures and videos, have to admit it doesn’t look good.. once the pennsylvania investigation becomes public knowledge and front page news it will be very very hard for 8 million pimis.. is it possible that this could be the largest problem the branch has ever faced?

larger than 1975, the overlapping generations or any other ‘test of faith’.

many will feel heartbroken and betrayed.
