12 have empathy for unbelieving relatives.
while we may be overjoyed about the bible truths we have learned, our relatives may mistakenly believe that we have been tricked or have become part of a cult.
we should show empathy by trying to see things from their viewpoint and by listening carefully to discern their real concerns.
I think if we look at this from a psychological point of view, we can say that the GB and the writing department are trying to come to terms with the fact that they are a cult and that that everything they write is utter bull shit!
Well at least they thought enough about it to right in that paragraphs. I smell trouble a brewing in the spiritual paradise.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it's most likely a duck.

I think watching this video we can see how the WT corporation can use the fear death to enslave one into cult conformity to the extent that the person can not live an authentic life by enslaving them to corporation directives. According to this video denial or suppression of our eventual death causes anxiety and depression.

Existential Psychotherapy: Death, Freedom, Isolation, Meaninglessness
when i first became a witness, i always found the teaching about jesus being the arch angel michael hard to swallow.
i did however believe that jesus pre existed as a master worker alongside god (the first of his creation).. but now everything is brought into question having watched anthony buzzard explain why jesus could not have pre existed as it is impossible to pre exist yourself.
also the fact that it all sounds contradictory to suggest, he was already alive millions of years before he was transferred to mary's womb to be born as a human - the son of man?.
No, he never exited he's an ancient fairy tale just like YHWH. all imaginary and not real.

1. if we have listened to herd, we will show it.. his demands oppress, and screw up our day.. it makes us unhappy to hear and to know it,.
and well be stressed if we know and obey.. (chorus).
2. this way of life, like a jail, is a sentence.
the supreme court of russia has rejected the jehovah's witnesses' appeal.. https://jw-russia.org/news/17071719-195.html.
july 17, 2017 the supreme court of russia has missed the last chance to restore law and justice for the 175,000 russian citizens professing the religion of jehovah's witnesses.
it took less than an hour of the meeting a panel of three supreme court judges, to leave unchanged the decision taken earlier by the judge yuri ivanenko, the liquidation and ban any and all registered organizations of the religion.since there is no more effective domestic remedies, the believers will appeal to the european court of human rights and other international organizations.. *note: as reported by the jworg source, jw-russia.org.
Yeah I'm glad the Russian government is handling this blight on society and kicking the WT (American) corporation's religious delusional propaganda out of their country. They are clearly a bunch of egotistical nut jobs.
Now if we can only see other governments do the same I'd be happy,, their exploitation of the gullible into servitude needs to be expunged from every country they are so corrupt and demented.
