  hi guys,.

  sadly some of them had been in bethel for 5 - 10 years and were still cleaning toilets.. after about 2 years of it i couldn't do it anymore.

  i always knew something wasn't quite right with this organization.

  i would also like to tell my story: i studied the bible with the jw when i was 12.very quickly i started to apply all that i had learned.i didn't baptized immediately because i felt that i was still young.but once i reached high school i was baptized.i quickly terminated my study at school and immediately went to auxillary pioneer.i did it 1 full year,and then applied for regular pioneer for 1 year.after that i returned to studying in the high school.i was elligible because i still met the age requirement.soon after that i was disfellowshipped because i did not take the neutrality stand(i joined the army)

  Thought Control (A simple test for JW's)

  by TD in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in george orwell's novel 'nineteen eighty-four' the capitulation of the principal protagonist is portrayed in his willingness to assent to the proposition that two and two make five.

  once he had denied objective reality, his mental conquest was complete and he was no longer truly the master of his own mind.

  nineteen eighty-four is in many ways, a very depressing read.. a charge commonly leveled at jehovah's witnesses is that the type of mind control envisioned by orwell has been and continues to be used on them.

  i have a couple of questions for anyone who has been reinstated.. what kinds of questions did they ask you?.

  if they decided to reinstate you were you told not to discuss why you were dfed, especially if another jw was involved?

  i was disfellowshipped for not taking the neutrality stand. the elders asked me if i were called for reservice would i still take the stand .What a joke why would the army accept a mentally illed person to be soldier,isn't that dangerous.

  As A Witness Did You Typically Feel Guilty?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i believe the way the organization keeps many people in its clutches is by means of guilt.

  no one can adhere to all of the theocratic rules of the organization and they know that.

  i believe jws do things to ease their consciences.

  so one of the elders called asking for my time.

  i lied, somewhat.

  yes i did talk to people about the "truth" but not in favourable terms.. has anyone simply stated, "i have not been in service this month"?

  What keeps most members in the ''spiritual netting'' of the WTS?

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  birds or any other animal can be caught with a net.

  they don't have the wisdom to see what's coming.. what does the wts use that is so powerful that most members can't seem to escape?

  what makes them so powerful that they can have so much effect on everyone of us?.
