Yes, it seems that every time we turn around we are hearing of the same types of tragedies. I wonder sometimes how frustrated I would be still being in a Cult, religion, or whatever one decides to call it, and how frustrating it would be to try to deal with the pressures, the false hopes, the fear, guilt, and all the other wonderful-(Sarcasm) things that emotionally damage a person. I can't fathom how someone could actually hurt their loved ones, but something seems to be triggering those people to be doing what they are doing. Yes, these same types of things happen to other people in other religions, but it seems that just in the past couple of years, there is example after example of these things happening to JW's. Seems as though a lot are going off the deep end. Murder, suicide, child abuse, rape, etc. seem to be all to common recently in the organization. It seems that even years ago, hearing of such things happened, but nothing to the extent that it is happening nowadays.
And, yet, I still do not see the society addressing these issues, yet they still have a Gimme, Gimme, Gimme attitude, and to a much greater extent, demanding more time, more money, more of everything from these unfortunate people, many of whom have no more to give. The society does not care about the anxiety they cause their followers, as long as their coffers stay overflowing. Very sickening...
I sincerely hope that people will start waking up to what is happening, so that they can leave before it is too late for them.
