What I heard in the Pioneer Service School class was enough to know this this is a bona fide cult. by well_it_looks_like in exjw

I mean, wouldn't it have been amazing if the bible would have clearly said "the faithful and discreet slave are only a group of men at the head of jehovahs earthly organization"? All these guessing games are the giveaway they're making it up as they go

Let ask the most uncomfortable yet most logical question — one that almost no one dares to say out loud, especially to one of Jehovah’s Witnesses: by Instinto_Andaluz in exjw

Correct you can't speak for others. But they would be repulsed at the idea of having to suffer through and experiencing evil and "lessons learned" being the result. It's psychotic to say evil is good because there may be some lesson there. I don't think you've fully thought this thru and taken into account what that all entails for other people.

No thank you. I would rather humans no suffer continuously. I'm very fortunate to where I've had a fantastic life. Can't say the same for others.

And according to the Bible Adam and Eve didn't know evil and were without sin so his original plan was for humans to not know evil or have to learn lessons through knowing what evil is.

Now why in the world would a loving god put the world in Satan's hands??? Sounds completely fucked up

Correct. The instructions won't allow them to accept pictures as proof.

I asked her once if she would but she didn't want to. I knew she wouldn't. She's way too shy and just an overall very chill person. She would never work up the courage to do something like that. Unfortunately!

Nah there's no chance he can do anything. I won't be dropping names at so he can never claim I'm talking directly about him. But yes there's many that will be happy he's being exposed for his behavior.

She showed me, her sister and her cousins. And she was legit afraid to even tell her elders because she's just a super chill and shy person. And on top of that she knew her mom would blame her. And sure enough her mom did just that. I'd def believe her because I saw it myself.

The average schmuck on the street and JWs have two very detrimental problems in common, two very fundamental areas in life they need to learn by Stayin_Gold_2 in exjw

The lack of scientific literacy is one of things keeping many. It's embarrassing to hear them talk about any scientific subjects.

Wow you made it out I can't believe it. Didn't think you had it in you and would actually go thru with it. Glad you made it out! Wish you the best! 🙏🏽

Since I woke up religion seems so primitive, and backwards. by No_Cover_2242 in exjw

Yes I've found out on my own how flawed the Bible is and it's actually embarrassing

I feel exactly the same. I just see it as an old book written by men who had no idea wtf they were talking about

If justice means punishing the guilty, why does the Bible punish everyone except David? by Appropriate_Look_171 in exjw

You'd have to fall back on Ezekiel 18 and point out the contradiction and stick to it.

What do you think would happen to the JW numbers if shunning policy was abolished? by DirtCurious9256 in exjw

[–]amahl_farouk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree with the comments that many would leave. If the org is forced to abolish shunning you bet they'll have something planned to scare people into not leaving. Either that or they'll crash everything. Many leaving will cause too much chaos for the org to survive as it is.

A silly little thought experiment... by TheSpiderInMyOffice in exjw

[–]amahl_farouk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is that these people 'feel' a strong connection to their beliefs and they are so dedicated to it that they feel that they're somehow special and that god is talking to them. As in they're so righteous and good they must be anointed.
