What Are Some Of The Psychological Damage That Shunning Inflicts On A Person?
JD: As a controlling group, they instill "the us versus them" mentality.
All non-Jehovah's Witnesses are worldly people under Satan's rule. Therefore, association with worldly people should be limited to only necessary dealings, and for preaching.
This means that if a Jehovah's Witness leaves the organisation they have no outside support system. Their whole support structure doesn't exist.
They have no one and they have lost their entire family and friends. This is devastating.
