  Marital sex

  by Tedeily in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  my wife and i have always shared naked photos respectfully over the years.

  being the only thing to fill that void in our relationship due to being apart.

  recently my wife has become jehovah, and we’re not sure if my wife is allowed to respectfully share herself with me while i am away.

  Oh man your in real trouble once the JWs cult gets into her mind.

  The JWS religion has strict regulations toward marital sex between a husband and wife..

  Just a heads up warning

  People are also make huge donations in their Wills all prearranged by the WTS.

  But where the WTS is making the most amount of financial income is the acquiring land title deeds of Kingdom Halls or Branch sales of as late.

  The WTS made close to 2 billion in the sales of all the buildings they own in Brooklyn New York just to use an example.
  

  Then there are the sales of many branches around the world.

  ........but they still ask children to give up their little bit of candy money they have.

  Crooked Fuckers ! sorry about the language

  Exiting the JW's and its aftermath

  by Victor in

  2. friends

  as human beings we are capable of experiencing around 750 emotions.

  parents use fear, guilt and shame to control their children to behave and do as they wish.

  the jw's are masters at using the same 3 emotions to keep their members in check.

  The WTS creates a luring psychological cult of love and brotherhood, righteous virtue as being god's chosen organization because of their close adherence to the bible, god's word.

  God's holy spirit is directing the organization through the GB anointed ones too.

  When one first starts with the JWS people are impressed of the in front look and appearance of love, men are wearing suits, woman are dressed nicely, looking neat and tidy, smiles everywhere, look how happy god's people are !

  The indoctrination process starts from there.

  Overtime the aspect of subservience to the top leading men of the organization/cult sets in, lies, and hypocrisy are observed, the controlling oppression, fear, guilt and obligation becomes deeply imposed.

  Are you doing enough ? are you showing your deeply felt devotion to Jehovah in accomplishing his will and purpose ?

  The writings in the bible particularly the book of Revelation is taken as factual, meaning the world in going to be destroyed soon so we better draw other people into the organization to save their lives.

  Fear, guilt and obligation is set .

  The psychological trauma starts.

  How do you feel about the JWS religion after being out more than 10, 20, 30 years ?

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  myself being a born in and completely out for more than 30 years i see more of the damage of what this religious cult causes people .. part of myself leaving had to do with the psychological harm it was causing people back in the 1970's, one guy my age at the time hung himself out anxiety and depression.. the numerous suicides that have occurred in numbers is shocking to say the least.. then there is the many families breaking up.. marriages breaking apart because one member decides to leave the jws.. the deaths of members or their children from refusing a blood transfusion.. this hit me personally when my mother refused a bt when she was ill in the hospital and died.. over the years and observing all of these things reminds me how glad and fortunate i left when i did but i do find it responsible to others to expose this religious cult to what can happen to people who get involved with it and that's what i've been doing on this forum and elsewhere.

  The WTS/JWs as an organization has to date killed thousands, broken apart millions of families, ruined marriages, indirectly caused numerous suicides which might now exceed the numbers who have died from refusing a blood transfusion (?) , all orchestrated by false doctrines created by corrupt religoius charlatans running their own unregulated publishing house.

  If those reasons dont compel you to leave probably nothing will.

  are you aware of any double standards promoted by the organization of jehovah's witnesses?

  here a a few i am aware of:.

  1. the wts equated joining the ymca with apostasy but felt free to join the un for 10 years (1991-2001).

  How about calling other Christian faiths false religion yet the JWS organization is run by commercialized false prophets running a publishing house, who have enacted themselves as sinning unrighteous apostates. ?

  One thing to keep in mind is that because of the late 1800's preachers and charlatans such C T Russell who started the IBSA as an organization of Christian literature proselytizers, built the ground work for the WTS and the following men who got a hold of it who subsequent built up their own power base.
  

  That self identifying power grew from and expanded by the self recognition as the anointed ones and the FDSL .

  The reality is these men were just opportunistic sinning false prophet apostates who just happen to express their theology through the literature they published and proliferated and that is why the JWS religion to this day is wrought with imposing fear, ignorance and corruption.

  Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely

  Part of myself leaving had to do with the psychological harm it was causing people back in the 1970's, one guy my age at the time hung himself out anxiety and depression.

  The numerous suicides that have occurred in numbers is shocking to say the least.

  Then there is the many families breaking up.

  Marriages breaking apart because one member decides to leave the JWS.
  

  The deaths of members or their children from refusing a blood transfusion.

  This hit me personally when my mother refused a BT when she was ill in the hospital and died.

  Over the years and observing all of these things reminds me how glad and fortunate I left when I did but I do find it responsible to others to expose this religious cult to what can happen to people who get involved with it and that's what I've been doing on this forum and elsewhere.

  today was a beautiful day and so, decided to drive by my old town with my wife.

  at some point, she asked me to stop talking about jws to which i said: i'm talking about were i lived, what i did and who i knew.

  its just that all of it was jws!

  When one reflects back of how the JWS effects people as in destroying families, marriages, careers, lives all based upon accepting fictional ancient mythology and the corrupt interpretations of certain men for their own purpose and means, it leaves a comforting thought that your not involved in this human endeavor with all of its dangerous faults.

  by Doubledecker in

  2. friends

  hi , this is my first post .. i left jws 30 years ago as 18 year old unbaptised youth and after the initial fallout from leaving pretty much put the whole thing in a box and buried it .. however , i am now starting to realise how much the doomsday messages and the ‘them and us’ doctrines that’s fed to you from birth has remained in my core beliefs.. how have others managed to reprogram themselves ?.

  thanks for reading , have a good day .
