posting a link to the animal farm movie on youtube.

in the comment section, you will see comment on similarities between the animals and jw.

i watched the movie and i thought, this so reminds me of the jw.
the science has changed reminded me of "new light"

are men more compliant than women
by enoughisenough in
1. jw
2. experiences
i watched a video once of men being trained ...it was a study.

they had the men doing the most rediculous things-can't remember quite what now.

so between that video, the letter to elders to keep their mouths shut about the koolaid, and to go along with the csa protocol, and what i will call insurance fraud by the jw, and who knows what other things the men in positions in the org go along with-these things prompt the question.

shunning the congregation
by enoughisenough in
1. watchtower
2. scandals
i was watching a youtube by jerome about religious freedom part 2. it was so disgusting to see the two jw testifying that instead of the congregation shunning those who disassociate, it is the person who disassociates that is choosing to shun the congregation.

the commissioners kept asking why someone who had been sexually abused had to be shunned if they disassociated ....jdubs talked in circles and never answered the question.

so glad i woke up and got out ...to support the org is a reproach to anything decent..

2. beliefs
many talk about jackson in regard to his response into the abuse of children, but this related clip is about freedom to leave the jw...i found myself thinking at several points, he is outright lying.

(spiritual warfare in action?

JW-God's channel of communication

1. watchtower
2. beliefs
the faithful slave is considered god's channel of communication.

( though not inspired of god ) does anyone else find the use of the word channel interesting in this regard?

from where i am sitting it denotes spiritism.

JW profit from disasters
by enoughisenough in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
some time back i questioned about jw making money from doing relief work for disasters.

i found this story on reddit and also noted some of the replies.

it makes me wonder how many would have left their own jobs and paid their way, giving free labor and some supplying free materials if they had know what was going on behind the scenes.

JW Chrisians in name only-what do you think
by enoughisenough in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
jw claim they are the true religion and they mention the love they have among themselves as proof.

i have been watching a youtube creator who had some thoughts on the subject, bringing out jw were not really christian, based upon their actions.

he made a pretty good case.
