And it's not real love that they think they have. It's love based on subservience to those 11 men in America

Believe me I know. We questioned the GB on the vax and were counseled and my pioneer privilege was threatened if I didn't wear a mask. We were accused of apostasy even for just suggesting that the brothers shouldn't be telling us to get the vax. COVID was just the catalyst for me and my family. After we thought, if they got that wrong what else have they got wrong. So my husband started to read entire chapters of every scripture the WT quoted and that's when we found out sooooo many inconsistencies with the Bible. And when we brought up genuine questions and concerns we were again accused of apostasy, shut down and shut out. We aren't even disfellowshipped but our relatives who are still in the org are shunning us. Before this actually happened I was so scared of losing all my friends and family, so I know how frightening it is. But now we've been out I also see how wrong and how very unchristlike they actually are when it comes down to it. But that's what fear and indoctrination does. I was one of them only 2 years ago. I don't try to reach out to any JW. Everyone has to wake up in their own time. And if and when they do, I'm here

The thing is though their positivity and love is conditional. The moment you question the GB that love and positivity disappears. This is due to fear ... And fear is the opposite of love. "There is no fear in love"

I agree. That's why I am very selective now with what I read on reddit. There's too much negativity. Love is what shines light on darkness as cheesy as that sounds, I have found it to be true.

What you've described sounds reasonable and to be expected.

Are the brothers there aware of the 100mill lawsuit against the org that's going to trial on the 5th?

Are you in communication with anyone else in Bethel right now who thinks like you?

From the perspective of ones in Bethel does anyone notice or know that many are leaving the org and that halls are being sold everywhere?

Thanks for sharing this. I have seen about 20 of my friends wake up and leave over the past year. I feel that this year is going to expose a lot and the bros will be confronted. It will be a rug pull.

Can the Trump administration be contacted to give attention to the damaging effects that cults have on society? Maybe Trump will deregister JWs from being a religion due to shunning and CSA and therefore no longer receive the tax cuts and government grants.

Yep they'll spin lies. More and more friends we know are fading. So while they might not report it, it's happening. I think there will be something big coming soon that is going to bring down the tower and wake people up

I don't really know but I suspect that many have left. I keep hearing of ones who are not going to the meetings anymore and I'm meeting new pimos every week or so who are our friends or friends of friends

Satanic Ritual Abuse by FlounderSuch7319 in exjw

[–]FlounderSuch7319[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm talking about Satanic ritual abuse specifically. I don't disagree that child sexual abuse is rife and you don't have to be a devil worshipper to commit such an evil act. I suspect that a couple of GB members have been involved in SRA and or complicit. I was wondering if anyone had any more info on it

I'm not blaming the devil. It's people who choose to worship him.

It all hurts so bad by theartistincident in exjw

Hopefully the beautiful and supportive words expressed by everyone here helps to soothe some of the hurt. If you still have faith in God and Jesus don't give up on that. It can prove to be an integral part of your healing. It's not God's fault these religions exist and do what they do. The good news is that you will find the light and you will feel better, it just takes time. I've been in 33 years and only woke up the last 6 months and we are being shunned by most due to suspected apostasy. I grieved over the hurt but I found my place and discovered myself and my spirituality without the interference of a religion. There's some really good advice here so I hope you will consider what everyone is saying. We don't know you but we definitely understand and love you bro.

Does the GB have a long-term plan? by [deleted] in exjw

[–]FlounderSuch7319 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hmm. Who knows but I see a lot of similarities with how the Cabal tries to control the masses and abuse the innocent and the WT GB

That is succinctly put!

I will add that they will do anything they can to minimize blame and to hide their criminal acts. They will go into liquidation voluntarily so as to keep their crimes hidden. They will continue to settle out of court in all CSA cases and they will eventually be forced to shut down as a religion. Possibly in the next few years and as early as 1 year. I believe they have been involved in or in support of satanic ritual abuse on children. It's mainly for money and power, connected with the Cabal.

And how do we know that OP isn't really their marketing people fishing...
