  The Characterization of most Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Mr.Finkelstein in

  after years of being with jws you start to see a certain developmental characterization of most jws, particularly from elders who have the most power in each congregation.

  .

  the ideology follows along the route of holding up a white sheet over the entire organization, as well each identified individual member (brothers and sisters) which no doubt most jws will inevitably exploit toward themselves.. i personally recognized what hypocrisy was at young age from seeing and being around jws at the kingdom halls and what they were like away from the halls.. there is forced pretentiousness at play which comes out by jws.. having being reminded repetitively that god almighty sent his only begotten son to redeem their sins probably had some relevant connection.. there was no question to the fact that jws are associated with delusions, anxiety, fear, ignorance, subsided with prejudice against others who are not recognized as being active jws .. we are the most righteous chosen ones as it were and that self recognizance goes deep into the jws's consciousness in their daily living.

  I personally recognized what hypocrisy was at young age from seeing and being around JWS at the Kingdom Halls and what they were like away from the Halls.

  There is forced pretentiousness at play which comes out by JWS.

  Having being reminded repetitively that god almighty sent his only begotten son to redeem their sins probably had some relevant connection.

  There was no question to the fact that JWS are associated with delusions, anxiety, fear, ignorance, subsided with prejudice against others who are not recognized as being active JWS .

  We are the most righteous chosen ones as it were and that self recognizance goes deep into the JWS's consciousness in their daily living.

  Being forced to sit in those chairs for 8 hours should be a crime.

  Yes particularly for a child.
  

  Sitting in the assemblies where could barely hear anything clearly.

  In those day the assembly talks would start a 9am and go to 9pm with breaks for lunch and dinner.
  

  I think people just sat there and dazed off most of the time just to say they were there.

  A grand feast of spiritual bullshit (at the proper time)

  my old account was silent and i had to create a new account which kind of bums me, but here i am.. over the years i've really experienced some rough times emotionally and spiritually which led me down many paths.

  being angry most all of time with a few outbursts really started to make me take stock of what was wrong with me.

  further i started really going back and trying to figure out where i went wrong.. so i revisted all my previous posts on here.

  Once you start getting educated on the real life.

  I think you have diverged yourself of the real life all together and found a place where you feel comfortable and that is being controlled by other men.

  For some people delusions are more comforting than reality, forfeiting your personal responsibility to yourself and others is also seen as advantageous.

  Thinking for yourself as an individual is something some people rather not do, all you have to do in a religious cult is put a number on your head and obey the instructions.

  I've come to the conclusion that they are right and do a good job with disseminating Biblical truth.

  So you claim the leaders of the WTS/JWorg are disseminating bible truths yet they are in fact scripturaly false prophet apostates or known as corrupt lying religious charlatans.

  Sounds to me you like you really didn't look at other religions with an open mind at all.

  You sound like one of these guys who criticize the elders for their activity involving you but hold up WTS's doctrines within yourself as in " I know its The Truth " .
  

  Have you just recently followed back to the Kingdom Hall on a assumption that the end is near, perhaps this new virus pandemic has got you thinking hey they were right all along ?

  so i travel alot for business and check into a hotel, start putting away my things and lo and behold in a bureau drawer, find a couple of wt's a couple of awake's and two tracts.

  1. throw them in the trash and forget about it.

  2. leave them where they lay and forget about it.. 3. leave a note for the housekeeper asking to lay off the cult recruitment.. 4. bring it to the attention of the management, and possibly get the housekeeper fired.. thanks for your input.

  So I would simply advocate just getting rid of any old literature that proves any points you have and just move on.

  Sounds like your following the WTS advise to the tee.

  Has your righteous vindication been thoroughly fulfilled now ?
