Placards:
Effective placards would make a characature of JW dogma:
"Don't talk to your df'd children!"
"Father's day is evil!"
"Don't go to university!!!"
"1 generation + 1 generation = 1 generation!"

as a little background - i was born-in to being a witness, back in '79, in detroit, in mostly black and poor congregations.
baptized when 10-ish, stayed around, was on the fast track to ms, but faded when i moved out at 24ish.. there was a combination of a few things that got me on the road to "freedom" from the cognitive dissonance that kept me "in the truth" for so long.
the main thing was, being an artist and studying marketing, my thinking was patterned to constantly question if i was doing something "correctly," as constant improvement and questioning is what facilitates artistic and mental growth.
US politicians and Jehovah's Witnesses, they fear the beard.
my sister who is 26 and a jw, recently quit her job to join this "company" that helps people invest for retirement.
she has a masters and was working in education.
now she's sold on syncis.
I looked on their website, it looks EXACTLY like MLM to me. I've copied and pasted the following:
As a SYNCIS Associate, you can earn extra income while helping others by:
If they are talking about you selling to your friends and family on their website, yep, it's good ol' mlm.

not a sexual term at all fyi - w4m looking for like-minded friends, in the same condition.
don't respond thinking it means something sexual.
Another thing, you see her agenda. She wants to talk with dfd men. She threw in the "girls are welcom too" just to not be so obvious.
She's just lonely, which means the shunning is working perfectly on her.
No doubt she got dfd for the same reason 99.44% get dfd. Should probably stay off of Clist if she doesn't want that to happen again.

Hiliarious, dfd people think its ok for them hang out with other dfd people. IT"S NOT!
If you are working on gettng back in, you should be playing by all the rules, that includes shunning other dfd people.
everytime i hear jw's talking about free will, i either feel the urge to burst in laughter or feel sick.
each publication keeps talking about how wonderful jokehova is for giving us free will.
the only small thing is that he'll kill you if you don't do exactly what he says.
This is one of many key questions about life that the Bible is silent on.
1,500 pages of fine print in the Bible and there is not even a paragraph of discussion of this subject. Why is that? The dudes that wrote most of the BS that fills these pages were Bronze age goat hearders in Palestine who weren't real deep thinkers, they were slave owning, patriarchal, animal sacrificers.
Mob boss is good way to illustrate Jerkhovah's role in the universe.
danielle colby went from jehovah's witnesses to burlesque dancer to vintage decor goddess.

Of all the young dubs I've ever know that have left, only one ever became a stripper. He still is one, in Vegas.
i'm studying psycology at a local university.
today in class we went over cognitive dissonance and a case study of a doomsday cult.
it's sad to see the cognitive dissonance among people i care about.
Jehovah tests us by having his channel spread misinformation giving the appearance of them not being his channel.
Makes perfect sense. lol
when i resigned from a body of about ten elders (jumped before pushed.
.
if you still go, how many ex elders in your congregation?.
I am one of 4 x elders in my congregation.
just curious..
Tell them everything that they WANT to hear, and tell them nothing more. Don't tell them that you have doubts, otherwise, every 3rd comment they make at the Kingdom Hall will be about YOU! How do I know? Because it's happening to me RIGHT NOW.
