Jehovah's Witnesses or Watchower's Witnesses?
by biometrics ini've often thought about it.
are these people witnessing jehovah or the watchtower.. in the abscense of solid proof that god is backing the watchtower they are only witnessing a group of men who beleive they have god's backing.. .

Jehovah's Witnesses 'a cruel cult'
by biometrics infrom a local newspaper site in australia:.
christian sect the jehovah's witnesses - with 64,000 active 'disciples' in australia - are a cruel religion with no soul, according to melbourne cultbuster raphael aron.. his warning comes as the federal government considers tightening the definition of a charity to prevent some cults and quasi-religions keeping their tax free status.
independent senator nick xenophon has renewed calls for a national cult-busting agency.. mr aron, a psychologist, counsellor and director of melbourne's cult counselling australia, said the jehovah's witnesses had a policy of "shunning" members who left or wanted to leave by cutting them off from family members who remained.. "i am still waiting for a justification for someone to be able to rip away a five or six year old child from their extended family because mum or dad have decided to leave the jehovah's witnesses," he said.. advertisementformer members say shunning can involve bullying, threats, harassment and stalking to lure the 'apostate', or lapsed member, back.

Are you now ashamed of how gullible you were as a JW?
by biometrics innow that you realise how idiotic some of the jw beliefs are/were, do you feel ashamed of how gullible you were to believe them?.
if anything my past as an adult jw makes me understand how easily manipulated people are by the people and environment around them.
and that even intelligent people can be influenced beyond what is rational..
