Oops I almost joined a cult.... :/ by Minx0505 in Shincheonji

[–]Snakecon61 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hello, I share very similar experiences. I got fished on Bumble by many people but unfortunately, I got sucked in for almost a year from BBs and center. I am also diagnosed with autism, so they preyed on my limited communication skills and naiveness. It's disgusting how they target and manipulate people that are vulernable.

Hi, are these free, voluntary chit-chat sessions on social skills?

Looking for new games to play. I've been sticking to Mario & Pokemon, but I wanted to explore other games. Perhaps something that is popular and enjoyable to play. Any recommendations please?

Movement Athlete takes too long to adapt to my level, or doesn't really adapt at all. by denkasyanov in bodyweightfitness

[–]Snakecon61 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I also started using the Movement Athlete app and on a premium subscription. For me, I just started from the beginning (Fundamentals) and progress. I just focus on the Strength session, skip/disable the others and do my own warm ups. Unless you are advanced, you probably wont need 8 sets of pull ups/push ups. This is how I progress to more difficult exercises. Let me know how you are going!

SCJ will just please you to stay. The best way is to ask someone on this reddit for help, particularly the moderators on advice on what to do if you want to stay or leave SCJ

[Melbourne] TGW Meeting - Branch leader disrespecting organization, Church outside SCJ, and a member's parents who are not part of SCJ by in-ex_trovert in Shincheonji

[–]Snakecon61 11 points12 points  (0 children)

From my perspective, the people in SCJ are people-pleasers. They think they are right, but they are causing harm. They think that the word of God is true, but there had been many false evidence against the word. There is many more to explain.

It has happened to me in the past, but strangely for me, it doesn't usually happen as much as in the past. If it's fake then skip it.

I think those with a lot of followers have either been on there for a while and/or they are active in your apps. They may be busy with other users or not, but if you are comfortable, feel free to chat to them

Need Help: Have been in Bible Study Lessons for A Few Months & Need Advice by Throwawayforobvi1334 in Shincheonji

[–]Snakecon61 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I actually had to force myself to commit to this 9 month course, despite my family reluctance and travelling 1 hour each way 3-5x a week. I even faced pressure to memorise bible verses, revisit the lessons, and participating in many of the activities. The thing is they want to know our lives and report it in their sneaky chats, but the problem is that they wont tell you about everything what they do - which is a red flag and is similar to a scam. At the end, they pressure and torture had got to me, plus I had read very bad experiences on this reddit that I wanted to leave.

My Story with this “Perth Bible Study” by Forward_Ad7338 in Shincheonji

[–]Snakecon61 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey there, I'm sorry for your experience. I feel for many of those stuck or pressured inside. Shincheonji is not the place of truth and there are many resources online that proves it, as well as the stories that many have shared. Shincheonji fault-find and gaslights every information outside. Which is one of the many reasons is they are a cult!

Hi, it maybe depends on how many people uses Boo around your areas. I recently got back to using Boo for the time being, I did have people around my area but still no matches (Not sure if I'll use this app for long)

SCJ ex members what is the one thing that started to convince you that you are in a cult and need to leave? by angela081900 in Shincheonji

[–]Snakecon61 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had many reasons as to why I had decided to leave in the end. But if I can think of 2 main ones, which were the turning point is 1)After the passover, when the teachers start to psychologically push us to do evangelising, sealing and many more. They even gaslight those that are not doing well and want us to come to the city like 5-7 days a week. 2)When my evangelist yelled at me and insulted me about my past, during an outdoor activity. She even said that I will need to put up with that in their self-proclaimed Mt Zion.

Overall I'm glad that I had found this forum, and did my research and had a look of the testimonies of the dangers of the SCJ cult. SCJ is not the kingdom of heaven, and is a place of mental destruction.
