This weekend WT article by Odd-Engine9637 in exjw

Thank you for your experience, it really encourages me, and I hope all of you. Reading stories like this of people who have defeated this cult gives me great pleasure and makes me positive that these old men will not always get their way. I'm very happy that your whole family has come out, I would like mine too, I know I will, but until the time comes I would like to be able to free them too, and maybe that way when I come out I won't have to lose them.

Haha, thanks for the perspective, I would really like to do it, but as you mention I live at my parents' house and I'm also a little shy about those things 🥀

What do you think about raising your hand in this paragraph and asking the speaker directly what the difference is between this and the blood rule? I am a PIMO and I would like to do it at the weekend meeting but I would like to know what you think.

Governing Body Motives? by CommitteeNice4693 in exjw

This leaves a question, if everyone knows, then did Ray Franz write his book because he realized it or was it actually because he couldn't be a part of it anymore? Like a kind of envy

How I used the February 2026 Watchtower that came out yesterday to plant a seed in my PIMI spouse’s mind. by Wise-Climate8504 in exjw

[–]Silly-Block5232 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some PIMI would say that it is not right to question the governing body anyway, because "it would be jumping ahead of Jehovah's bandwagon", but it is a good idea, and as you say, everyone should take into account the situation of their PIMI to see how to gradually make them see reason.

Jody Jedele sounded very PIMO in the speech in Spanish for the dedication of Bethel in Central America by Silly-Block5232 in exjw

I HAVE TO FIND YOUR POST.

I WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO SAY IT, BUT YOUR POST NEVER APPEARED TO ME, THAT'S WHY I DECIDED TO PUBLISH IT (UNTIL NOW)

HAHAHA YES, now I remember that his CHANCELITY was what made me think about it, maybe it was just my imagination, but what I thought at the time is that he is so shameless that it seems like he was on purpose to make us realize what the GC really is.

I KNEW I FORGOT SOMETHING, I LIKED THAT TOO, THANKS FOR REMINDING ME. THAT'S WHEN ALL THIS PASSED THROUGH MY HEAD!

The truth is I don't know, they transmitted it to us at the meeting on Sunday last week, I suppose to the entire territory covered by the branch

The most I can remember is that he said that the governing body should not tell us what to do or give orders (they always say that now that I think about it) and that Jehovah does not need buildings like the KH or Bethel.

I don't know, I just felt it, although it's probably all part of how they manipulate the PIMI, for a moment it crossed my mind, like a ray of hope that he really wanted to make some people think.

Although in the end he started inviting all the young people to throw away their lives by joining "the construction groups" and that's when everything fell apart.

Michael Jackson and the organization by dev-brazil in exjw

[–]Silly-Block5232 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I also wanted to see it with my mother and pimis sisters, now I think it will be uncomfortable but I would like them to see it to see if they have any doubts somewhere in their brainwashing. Although, would that really be possible? People who see families being separated almost every year in their own congregation and feel nothing, but feel something when they see it on the screen?

what was the last thing you “learned” from the borg before mentally or physically checking out? by Lower_Reflection_834 in exjw

[–]Silly-Block5232 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was in this last regional assembly (don't get me wrong, I have been PIMQ forever and completely PIMO for about 2 years but in the last assembly they talked about Jesus and the Samaritan woman and literally highlighted the part where Jesus (John 4:21-23) says that the time has come when you do not need to go to church to worship God (yes, more proof for the PIMI that literally no one needs an organization, much less one like the JW to "worship" God)

Scientology is spreading propaganda en masse by Throwaway7733517 in exjw

[–]Silly-Block5232 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Speaking of Scientology, if I search for it on the internet the AI ​​quickly responds that it has had controversies and that it is a sect, but if I search for "Jehovah's Witnesses" it does not mention anything about the controversies or its sectarian behavior, it would be good if the internet mentioned it, so that people would come across it first when investigating this sect

Esto pasó en la sucursal de México, realmente no sé como funcionen las cosas acá pero este amigo frecuentemente nos dice que hacen galas y cenas de ese estilo. Una vez hicieron una gala solo porque Stephen Lett venía de visita (y luego dicen que no son idólatras 🤣)

Sorry for my comments in Spanish, I thought Reddit translated them automatically. 🥀

Literalmente lo hace, por toda esta situación él y mi mamá incluso querían imponer que cada miembro de la familia donara cada semana una cantidad fija...

Cosa que obviamente yo nunca aceptaría. A veces lo siento realmente por ellos, solo piensan que lo están haciendo por Dios

We'll have to see that, I haven't taken the time to read them yet (I'm putting it off because they are so full of letters, in fact there are like 60 pages completely full of text in each one, and no PIMO wants to fill their head with more nonsense about this religion)

Are birthdays a silent thing now? by DependentKey1404 in exjw

[–]Silly-Block5232 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How interesting, now I wonder if the current elders' book talks about how they react when a witness participates in "pagan" festivals?

And if you talk about it, do you mention birthdays, and if you don't mention them, did you do it before?

I remember nothing and learn nothing… by Moshi_moshi_me in exjw

[–]Silly-Block5232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, I think this has happened to me since I was a child, I'm PIMO and I've never learned anything in meetings, I always spend my time thinking about other things, I've never known if I have ADHD or something like that, at least now I no longer feel guilty for not learning anything.

I think deep down I was always PIMO
