May 22, 1969 Awake!
false direction to young people -" you will never finish school or have a career before the end of this system" paraphrased promise
propaganda designed to keep young ones working for WT as a future.
Like some of your audience will be, I was a teen in '69 and my grandchildren have now been to university and now enjoying their professional careers as teachers engineers....
Lying bullshit WT propaganda

a picture being worth a thousand words...and if you can backdrop your presentation with images...
Many people here simply can't forget the Wts horrible in-house art work they were exposed to as children... worldlies are always hoodlums or sluts, smokers, long hairs, unshaven,
Violence from god always depicted as the earth opening up, fire from the sky, cities collapsing on fire ... one member here still remembers her fear of the drawing of a girl and her bicycle falling into the void ...published when she was herself a girl with a bicycle.

Need Help - How do I refute this???
by HappyBlessedFree inso i was talking with my husband about all the things the organization is doing ie.
hiding pedophiles, lying about what 1914 was etc.
so his response was that the nation of israel had times when they weren’t doing the right thing, but it was still gods chosen organization.. another topic we were talking about was disfellowshipping.

Spirits, angels, devils and gods always where, and still are only fictional characters of human imaginations.
There is nothing (excepting education) to stop the inventing of a god and declaring some as "chosen people".

I HATE JW funerals
by jws injw funeral last night.
it was about half an hour from start to finish.
they opened with basic facts about the person.

It has been said that JWs shoot their wounded, so it's not surprising that their dead are sloughed off exactly like "Old Light"... buried quickly and never to be brought up again.
All the horrible JW funerals are for the very "Millions...who will never die." so really each funeral is a testament to their batshit crazy doctrine and prophecies.

If all entities self represent that will leave only WT paying legal fees for each and every of 50 proceedures..
The optics would be great! ...locally newsworthy over and over and over..
WT as Goliath and all our friends as mere Davids seeking legal justice through dispersal of vital information warning of charities fraud, failing to report child sexual abuses and destruction of families worldwide by not respecting the rights of freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of association wherever JWs little lunatic theocracy enforces its sick parallel justice system.

Mr. Conti glazed over climate change pretty fast given that it may well be the trigger to our extinction, and possibly soon.

Research Opportunity
by researchstudentsophie inmy name is sophie, and i am currently in the class ap research.
the aim of ap research is to have students enter into an academic conversation that exists about a specific topic or issue.
for my research project, i have chosen to evaluate the social stress levels, or sense of belonging, within members of the jehovah’s witnesses community, due to my personal background with the religion.. the following attachment will help me collect data for my research.

It isn't "my" source, and I haven't drawn any conclusion from it . It was just one (likely biased) study among many others referenced by JW FACTS, regarding worldwide aberrant mental health statistics of JWs.
A challenge was issued to produce such a statistic and it was produced
Sophie is doing research as a student of Cornell on a topic of great interest to every member of this forum...we who spend hours howling and wailing about how the hypocrisy, dishonesty and dogma of WT continues to ruin so much in so many of our families and friends.
When invited to comment on how this cults insanity affects those in the work force, we shoot the messenger by challenging her affiliations, her motives and even her honesty (yes she really did see a figure as high as "...10 to 16 times...").
With such a welcome It might strike her as obvious that the anxiety, mistrust and paranoia might linger long after escaping the asylum that created it.

JW Facts / Mental illness amongst Jehovah's Witnesses
Less than 30 seconds to find a study Sophie possibly cited. Ohio 1972 to 1976
"The mental illness rate of JWs is approximately 10 to 16 times higher than the rate for the general, nonWitness population... From his intensive interviews with Witness patients and others, Montague concluded that persons who had emotional problems were attracted to the Witnesses, but involvement also caused many of the emotional problems that they suffered. This is evident from the fact that many with problems reported they were far happier after they left.
Inquiring minds are eager to know WHY cults contribute to such high figures .
The first child ever raised full/on JW in our family later became our families first and ever suicide.
We KNOW why the rates are so high so get your asses into gear and give Sophie an earful of how religious abuse and hypocrisy affect the lives of working people.
