Is Russia "right" about presecuting Jehovah's Witnesses?
by iliketreasure injehovah's witnesses are presecuted in russia.
on par with the is and other terroristic groups.
it happened when the anti-extremism laws were extended to non-violent groups.. i don't believe that russia actually cares for the well-being of their citizens with this move and probably merely a law to stop other political forces (and the jws are one in a way, since their gather authority over large groups of people and also have their own political and judicial institutiona), but are they right about it anyway?.

What can we all do to protect personal freedoms in Russia ...should we write to the relevant authorities outlining our disagreement of their handling of the watchtower, and ask them to reestablish the deceitful,lying,bloodguilty organization in order for them to carry on their harmful and family negative work...hey let's all do that....who's first ?

Anyone interested in situations where people or families who have been negatively affected by the influence of watchtower ie jws (to whatever degree ) would surely be willing to hear what they have to say...,i know i would talk to such a person if the situation arose. I would hope to offer some help and comfort.

The Reasons for Cart Witnessing
by Simon inwhatever we think of it, you have to admit that it's quite "genius".. the door to door ministry as done in western developed countries where the jw quirky religion has probably reached their saturation level was a complete and utter waste of time in terms of the effort expended to recruit people.. at the same time, it was rarely something that anyone enjoyed which led to people being labelled as inactive, being pressured to doing more and maybe ultimately deciding jwism wasn't for them and leaving.. there was also the issue that many jws are actually pretty bad at knowing and articulating their beliefs so were pretty incapable of getting any meaningful message across.. they solved all this with the cart witnessing.
the real point isn't to recruit, it's to make life easier for jws.
now they can stand and chat with their friend, have a coffee, not talk to anyone or make eye contact and still act as a walking billboard for jw.org.

Hello Everyone, Another JW Has Left!
by SuperGirl injust want to introduce myself and let you know that this site is working and is a big help to lots of jws with doubts.
i've been lurking for about a year, the first couple of times i was frightened and literally shaking visiting an apostate site but it's the only place i can come to for sanity.
the religion has become a nut house.

My story
by Leeny ini came across this website when i was looking for some emotional/mental support lately as i was summoned by elders to explain someone’s report on me saying “i’m promoting homosexuality”.
i’m inactive, not attending meetings or associating with jw outside of my biological family for almost 2 years now.. yes i am gay (you can judge away) and yes it is in a direct contrast to the scriptures, no arguement about it.. i was brought up in a jw family.
my dad is a typical zealot, he literally talks or thinks about the bible 24/7.

Welcome leeny thank you for sharing your story. First of all know that you will be supported by the vast majority in this forum. I can relate to issues with jws and their unyielding stance on being gay. My daughter is gay and although she was never a jw she was subject to being cut off from her jw relatives to the point of one of my siblings exclaiming ..She is dead to us now...going so far as trying to persuade others of the family to take the same opinion..how cruel to a beautiful and loving person as my daughter who until she came out as gay had a close relationship with them and endured holding back her true nature knowing what reception she would face...how cruel and unloving these jws are. How you handle your situation is of course your decision , I would just say run towards the love and kick up the dust to those who hate. Best wishes on your journey.
