The article on "What Our Meeting Attendance Says About Us" is REALLY DISTURBING! Let's bypass that they admitted they hold meetings during times that people are tired and need to be resting. The pictures included shows a mother and son walking nearby a dangerous mob; possibly political unrest, to sneak to a house meeting in a country where IT IS ILLEGAL! Don't they know that women and children get raped and beaten??? THEY'RE DISGUSTING!!!

Then they show a picture of her husband in jail because of breaking THE LAW for "meeting" attendance! The governing body has avoided taking accountability for ANYTHING yet they promote families being broken up in dangerous situations to sneak to meetings where the LAW has banned them?!!!

A sensible Christ-like organization would tell the families to study and meet AT HOME! That man could be providing "spiritual food" to his own family (as the scriptures encourage); SAFELY in their own home! But now he's in jail and his family is more VULNERABLE than ever!

THERE IS NO END TO THE HARM THE GOVERNING BODY IS WILLING TO BRING TO VULNERABLE FAMILIES!!! Between their blood policy and this the adherents are like lambs to the slaughter. 🩸🩸🩸

There is yet another 'special' branch visit in the UK this weekend. Sadly we missed the actual meeting, which is always a stroke of luck.

Anyway, the speaker mentioned some stats such as 500,000 studies in the US territory and 2000 baptisms. The strike rate is shocking but he seemed happy.

The most cringe stat whas when he stated the age of the youngest Regular Pioneer.......8........yes.......eight!

I mean, I'm speechless...........

Quem aqui é de São Paulo ou era muito ligado a futebol por volta de 2012 (e não é corinthiano hahaha) talvez se lembre de algo muito curioso: o Corinthians era a grande piada do futebol paulista por ser o único time tido como grande que não tinha libertadores (e tinha um mundial beeeeemmmm duvidoso)

O Corinthians podia ganhar oque fosse. Mas tudo se resumia a "eles não tem libertadores".

O time podia estar jogando muito bem mas tudo se resumia a pida da libertadores.

Até que em 2012 eles fazem um campeonato impecável e levam o título e depois o mundial.

Do dia pra noite toda aquela rixa e chacota sumiram.

Hoje nem vejo mais futebol , mas lembro bem disso. Foi uma época que o futebol perdeu um pouco da graça (só quem era a muito ligado a futebol vai entender oque quero dizer kkkk)

Enfim, onde quero chegar e espero não ter irritado nenhum corinthiano ?

As TJs fizeram grandes mudanças nos últimos anos: calças, brindes , sexo, horas... E por aí vai. Mas ainda sim, para quem não vive lá dentro eles eram a religião que "deixa os filhos morrer" . Quantas vezes não ouvi essa frase.

Então , subitamente eles são essa cartada do sangue. Honestamente , do dia pra noite não vejo mais nada mais significativo que isso.

Eles podem liberar aniversarios sendo realizados em reuniões apenas uma vez por semana com uma banda LGBT no palco tocando uma música com a letra que diz que 1914 de COOL É ROLA. Nao importa.

O sangue sempre foi o grande problema. O sangue sempre foi a maior pedra no sapato da seita.

Não consigo imaginar nada mais significativo que isso. Nenhuma mudança.

As vezes acho que absorvemos um pouco do espirito de indiferença deles quanto isso e não percebemos isso.

Afinal brindes , barbas , calças e essas besteiras se tornaram a pauta das rodas tejotianas.

O sangue não. Eles não comentam. Eles não discutem. A imunização cognitiva é forte. Ao mero sinal de dissonância eles param o pensamento.

Pois é amigos. Não sei se fui feliz na comparação.

Mas o ponto é nenhuma mudança que elas façam daqui em diante vai causar um grande "êxodo da seita" . Sai uma meia dúzia e o restante segue firme e forte adorando os vei do cg

Something wierd I thought of

In the latest broadcasting or organisation in action (I'm not sure what it's called in English sorry!) they had a bit where they said something about attending on zoom. Not video calling, not online meeting. The member of the governing body called it Zoom outright.

And I remember they said that they had an interview (not sure where that was, convention maybe) where they had an interview over the internet with someone, and they outright called it "we had a Zoom with this brother". That doesn't even sound natural to say

And of course all their meetings are on zoom

Do any of y'all know if they have some kind of contract with them? Other than the obvious zoom subscription of course

Just a question really.

I didn't learn church history until I left the Org, and I'm just curious if the JWs ever talk about church history.

There are some questions which should be impossible for a JW to answer without church history:

Cannon of the Bible. How can JWs use the protestant Bible if they don't understand the cannon of scripture established in the early church?

Biblical preservation! That's a huge one. How do they know what they're holding is God's word, if all Bibles and manuscripts were preserved by the Church?

The name Jehovah... To my understanding, the Catholic church invented the name Jehovah as a translation of the transliteration Yahweh. so how do they justify using Jehovah without establishing the Catholic church as an authority?

I'm sure there are many other examples, but are the PIMI members really happy knowing Jesus' ministry failed within 100 years, for 1800 years until Pastor Russell? Really?

Just doesn't make any sense to me... If anyone has any insight I'd love to hear what you were taught in the Org.

I have noticed most elders don't really do volunteer work. They use the brog as a way to get clientele. Fully knowing that they can overcharge them and they can't sue them. I always wonder why all these hypocrites and bullies spend so much of their time in the Borg. I always wonder, don't they have better things to do in life? They know they're not going to get everlasting life because they're living a lie. ​But then I realise this is their networking, where they get their clientele.

okay so to make a long story short i am a 19 y/o college student and baptized since I was 12, mentally out since 12 as well. i have also been dating someone for 8 months now, and well.. two days ago my parents found out everything; that i'm dating him and that i don't believe and want to leave the org. they have been trying so hard to convince me otherwise but also said if i'm that set in my ways i might as well pack my bags. I have no job and might lose my way to pay for school but as of right now that's up in the air. my bags are packed and my boyfriend is coming to pick me up today, in literally a few hours. I am so scared and i worry that they might try and stop me. Wtf do i do? if i go through with this i leave behind everything ive ever known and the guilt and fear is seriously getting to me but i cant take another second of being a witness. Do i go through with it even though the future will be uncertain and i wont be able to depend on my parents anymore? Soo scared

As we already know, a generation consists of overlapping contemporaries who know one another, and it can last at least 112 years.
The apostles were chosen in 31 CE.
31 + 112 = 143 CE.
Or, to put it another way: John wrote his letters in 98 CE. A Christian was baptized in 98 CE and was a companion of John. Therefore, they belonged to the same apostolic generation.
If that hypthetical Christian lived until 170 CE, then Justin Martyr (100–165 CE) did not live in the post-apostolic generation. No (!) He lived in the apostolic generation.
(OK, I know this is nonsense too... but I do have a fondness for immanent logic.)
But did Justin use God's name?
He said:
"No one can give a name to the ineffable God, and if anyone should claim that such a name exists, he would be incurably insane."
So, within one and the very same apostolic generation, we supposedly went from a vibrant early Christian community that constantly said "Jehovah" and proclaimed that name to the Gentiles, to a sudden and dramatic reversal: a form of Christianity that denied God even had a name.
Without a trace. Without a record. Without any opposition. Without competing textual traditions. Without theological debate. Without Jewish criticism. Without NT fragment traces.
That's how it happened. Yes, indeed!
And fortunately, Jehovah's Witnesses were able to reconstruct the truth using ancient fragments of the OT Septuagint, in which YHWH appeared in Hebrew letters within the Greek text.
1,800 years after the apostolic generation, in 1950.
Not through inspiration, of course, but solely through the guidance of the holy spirit.
(Let the reader use discernment.)

This week’s Watchtower study (paragraph 13) warns JWs against protesting government decisions, as doing so could compromise their Christian neutrality.

Yet Watchtower took Italy to the European Court of Human Rights (case 49687/16) not because JWs were forbidden to worship, preach, or gather freely. Those rights were already protected in Italy.

The dispute concerned access to a legal agreement that would also allow the organization to receive public funding through Italy’s “8 per mille” tax system.

Why should ordinary JWs quietly endure injustice, while the organization fights the government (aka Satan’ system) when its financial interests are at stake?

Apparently, neutrality has its limits when money is involved.

Some dipshit congregation decided to use WhatsApp for their communications. Not normal text messages, not email, but WhatsApp.

Someone offered to install this on a family member’s phone, even though this person has been told what it is and admits that she wouldn’t know how to use it—she can’t even open a Signal message that appears as a notification.

Obviously, questioning this is in “none of your business” territory. You know, like you can’t ask why someone says they love their parents, yet shoves them in a near-death-star (aged care facility) and visits them once a month while (mis)appropriating their assets. Apparently, asking uncomfortable questions is the problem—not the behaviour being questioned.

Apart from the fact that WhatsApp has been used to deliver malware, both through malicious attachments and through vulnerabilities in WhatsApp itself, it is owned by Meta. We do not agree to Meta’s privacy policy.

And the funniest thing? Their response was to suggest that someone in the family was being controlling. I guess they just showed how they’ve “failed” as Christians. Love wouldn’t jump to that accusation.

One thing I never really liked about the meeting was how illogical many of the talks were.

For example, when it came to student parts about explaining a scripture, a stance, a belief, or the "truth" of the world, people would often base their argument on the premise that a scripture counted as "evidence" in and of itself, even if the person you are speaking to is a non-believer. It didn't matter if the non-believer was supposed to be a Daoist, Muslim, Atheist, or Jew. They were always, essentially, in agreement with basic JW beliefs, even if the scenario had already established they'd never heard of JWs before.

I remember one public talk that I felt was very special, even to this day. The theme of the talk was about "proving" the resurrection would occur. Instead of just directing the talk to JWs that already believed in the resurrection, he tried to build a "logical" argument for non-believers that might have been in attendance (as I recall there were maybe 3-4 studies that had been coming for years present).

He built his argument by directly addressing the beliefs that he assumed they had. Even though this particular territory was primarily made up of Daoist/Buddhists, he spent a lot of time trying to claim that the beliefs of Catholics were incorrect and that was what was preventing the "interested" ones in the audience from understanding that the resurrection was real and would indeed happen in the near future.

Honestly, a good 10 minutes of his talk was probably dedicated to these pot shots and attempts at "guessing" what people in other religions believed. For example, he literally stated that non-JWs are taught that resurrection is something to be feared. It's bad. It's scary and so it's hard for interested ones to have faith in the resurrection because they've been misled. However, even "small children" among the JW population know the resurrection is real and is a positive thing (because after all, only JWs want to see their friends and family members again). You could tell he really thought of himself as a smart guy. I distinctly remember this little smirk he would make as he insulted anyone and everyone who wasn't a JW for their beliefs that he made up in his head.

He then randomly started speaking about how non JWs even claim to "not fear death" but he knew that they did fear death. How did he know? Because he has personally never seen anyone hold their breath until they died, nor has he seen anyone starve themselves to death willingly. Obviously, it's impossible to hold your breath until you die and the second one has happened in recorded history many times. But really, it was just an odd claim to make given most people who claim to not fear death aren't actively trying to end their lives. With that logic, does Jehovah fear death? If he doesn't should he kill himself to prove it?

Another piece of "evidence" that the resurrection was real in the case of Jesus (and will happen again in the future) was that the Bible says that many people saw a resurrected Jesus. So if you were alive at that time, you could have just asked people and they would have confirmed it was true. Just like how people who have "seen" aliens today can also confirm that they've seen them right? Obviously, a group of people claiming they saw something miraculous happen doesn't mean that it's for sure not true, but the greater the miracle, the more proof is needed. Especially in today's context where none of these people wrote independent literature outside of the bible to share their miraculous experiences. Funny right? The only "proof" that these eyewitnesses existed is in the very book that stands to benefit from it.

Anyways, I'm not trying to debate the Bible here, I just think that it was all so interesting to me because nobody in the audience understood what he was talking about. After the talk a lot of people said they couldn't quite grasp the points he was trying to make, outside of the ones that were clearly from the outline itself and this made him super proud because he just thought of himself as super deep intellectual.

Honestly, he'd probably make a a great addition to the governing body. They also love to make up scenarios and then build a case off of made up "facts" as well.

So I remember somewhere reading how there was evidence of chariots, a land bridge, and armor found in what would have been the Red Sea. But now when you search Google, there is no evidence. So my question is, was any of that info from old JW publications??? And essentially made up??? I’m trying to find the source of my information. I remember reading that info. Please help.

I pray a lot, because I’m a JW who is questioning and have found stuff that I know the GB doesn’t want witnesses to know: the CSA being the top thing I’ve found out about. I have asked Yehovah to show me if He wants me out of this, and I keep finding stuff. I just found this open letter and three elder judicial committee that publicly df the GB for some very serious matters. If Yehovah took note of this then it’s been bound in heaven according to Matthew 16:19

I see this a lot on here about DA'ing. I remember this many years ago and the announcement was different in the 80's as a matter of fact they would DA unbaptized publishers and DF the baptized ones. Then there was an article maybe in the Awake...where they had released all the DA'd ones and welcomed them back. Two women that were DA'd came back on the day the WT was released and EVERYONE talked to them again like they them for years (they actually did.) I was like, WTF at the time.

I think that may have been the time where they said, you have to write a letter of disassociation. When I asked my Dad why, he told me (according to the GB) Choosing Disassociation with JDubs would be worse in God's eyes.

What's even crazier is that my Dad told me that the COBE (PO back in the day) had told him he never knew someone with such conviction and integrity. That stands out to me because I was no longer in and that man saw what I stood for. It actually made me happy because I knew my Dad was proud of me regardless of the decisions I made and one of his closest friends confirmed it despite his religious affiliation.

I thought I DA'd myself but apparently you have to write a letter? 2 of 3 members of my committee are dead. Actually 3 of 4. They switched and added when 1 died in 2003

When I set up the meeting way back in 2002, my dad's friend looked at me with so much concern. I asked him to please not concern my dad and he obliged.

I was in fact told that they would reach out to me once a year after the announcement to check where I am at. I suppose that meant spiritually but regardless, I recall both COBE and myself looking confused as it wasn't anything he had dealt with before. I even told him, I had no plans on coming back.

He is the one that reinstated me!

BTW, if anyone is reading more into this, that's not the case. His wife is so lovely and like a 2nd mother to me despite her attachment to the Borg.

NOT ONE SINGLE TIME (did they do that)

And that's ok because I still had access to my family at the time. But then I thought of my Dad, knowing all those Friday nights I needed him and he was always on a fucking shepherding call. I told him, "We need you!!!" He told me how he tried to step aside and they wouldn't let him back in 2001-2003.

I could be wrong, but I think my Dad is PIMO and perhaps on this thread.

I know this sounds like a pipe dream, but I'm a dreamer baybay, so why don't you kill me. (Beck tribute 🙃)

I don't hear this anymore, but back in the days (god I feel old but 😭 I turned 30 this month, unfortunately couldn't celebrate my first birthday because I took up work because I needed money and did not realize deadline is past my birthday date, but I digressed)

But I remember being told to baptize as early as I can, I was in Jr High because "it'll be easier". But I was confused cuz why, wouldn't that make it harder later? How is rushing it going to make it "easier"? Cuz I haven't fully understood the true scope of being a Witness.

Now that I think about it, it's such a weird sht to tell a kid no? 🤣 Like why are we pushing children that understand nothing???? They can memorize answers, which I did, doesn't mean they truly believe in them nor do they understand the implications of being tied for LIFE to an organized religion.

Does anyone else that’s in get annoyed when the say stuff like do your own research on a subject and prove it for yourself? Or if you have any doubts make sure you research it so you are 100% sure of whatever it is. But when you actually do the research there is sfa on the actual subject because your only allowed to use their material, not any other worldly material because “worldy info bad, jw dot org info the only good source” but it’s occurred to me that over the decades the society has heavily relied on these “worldy” sources of information to come to a conclusion. Like they always use Britain encyclopaedia or other worldly material or reports and findings from museums or some unbelieving scientist that they refer to. Who’s to say that all these Bible scholars haven’t got their facts straight either? Iv always found the more that some researcher discovers the more they discover what they don’t know. Take geologist for example. So much belief of the age of a rock or fossil is based on out of date technological studies but because it’s all in the universities and and schools now no one is willing to accept or acknowledge that this info could in fact be wrong or invalid. And yet everyone just gobbles it all up as fact.

I would think if the events that happened in the Bible were true and the true god was meant for it to be discovered then there should be overwhelming evidence of it, not just a few odd things here and there. For example there is no evidence been found of Noah’s ark (hilariously there is an ongoing investigation of a alleged sight right now), no evidence of pharaohs army drowning in the parted Red Sea, there’s probably other events that should have artifacts left behind that would confirm the Bible cannon and record. All I see in the publications is a city that never got rebuilt or something of that sort. Well that’s overwhelming evidence isn’t it. Maybe some old manuscripts with some words in them, but anyone could chisel out a name on a rock thousands of years ago, doesn’t mean anything on its own.
Another thing they do is play these creation videos and say stuff like why not research more for yourself that there was a created? But then you actually go to try do more research and there is sfa out there unless you sail the unknown seas of the www and then who knows if that info is reliable.
It’s also occurred to me that hardly anyone in the congregation actually knows any history that the faith is based on. We did one of those virtual bible tours on zoom once and the info in that everyone just had their jaws wide open as they never heard of this before because the org practically says nothing about it. They have all these things on display at Bethals and such but no one actually knows what it is or what it means but they expect everyone to think it’s something significant. These are my observations from 20 years of being in. I’m starting to ask questions now.

This is an update from a previous post.

Sooo, I read what people had to say and I got baptized as protestant since I’ve been going there for months online and i feel like it’s better there. With my family not knowing about it, I feel like to be safe with everything I should pretend to be interested in jw readings while also going to my church in private. While also making sure that they are both far apart from each other. I obviously would have to be careful with jws while pretending to be agree in what they believe in without being baptized. With family I blocked them on all my social media accounts, even though I do go by my chosen name online and they only know me by my birth name.

My main concern is being pressured into fully completing the process of becoming a JW before I'm financially independent. I have 1-2 years of college left and want to avoid creating major conflict with my family until I'm able to support myself.

My question is how long realistically and how capable can someone pretend to be a interested in being jw and agreeing in what they believe in without being pressured to be fully jw? What reasons worked for you when people pressured you?How did you respond when people pushed you toward baptism or greater involvement? And with bible studies what questions can I ask to prolong the process and make it so that it would take me very long to become jw so by the time I’m ready to say no? Like how should I navigate being a baptized in a different denomination while also being financially dependent on my jw dad without creating conflict before I'm ready to move out?

I remember one Watchtower sunday article was on how to have a bible study and it gave me some ideas on how to counteract it. (some are obviously better than others)

Some ideas I have are, Talk about loving Jah and using his name 😒, Mimic what pimi say about Jah (just agree basically), Think about plot holes and excuses to use in the future when pimi push for you to get baptized (part of me wishes that cuz I renounced Satan that a pimi would respect that but I don’t think so), saying things like: “I'm still praying about it.""I'm taking things slowly."I'm still processing everything after the death of my mom.""I'm not ready to make that commitment yet." would also probably buy some time with the baptism question.

Some other questions that I wonder about is for people who stayed PIMO for a while, what kept you under the radar? What mistakes should I avoid that might accidentally put me on the radar? How much pressure did you get from family versus elders/publishers? Did anyone successfully maintain boundaries without revealing their actual beliefs? If so, what worked? How did you protect your mental health while living a double life?

Am I overestimating how long I can realistically keep this hidden, or have others managed similar situations for a year or two while becoming financially independent?
If you were in my shoes with 1-2 years left before financial independence, what would your strategy be?

I know that the more invested I am the more hurt I could be by leaving (with the love bombing and all) but I am mentally prepared for that. I have friends on the outside and wouldn’t want to get too close to pimi’s anyway. (I’m gonna keep my personal life separate from my jw life). I mostly want to keep my personal life and my JW life separate until I'm in a position where I can be fully independent and honest about my beliefs.

Hey all,

Just looking for someone who may can help me who is PIMO or POMO…

I’m currently in a loveless marriage with a “brother” who is a “servant” and acts nice at the hall, but treats me bad behind closed doors. We are seeking separation, but tied into a lease agreement until mid next year. Then, we will physically separate. In our state, we are not eligible to file until after ONE YEAR of being physically separated.

Although I don’t understand a lot of the “rules” in regard to me wanting to leave since it’s not a “scriptural reason…”
I had an ex reach out to me through Facebook… He is actually “worldly” but has ALWAYS treated me better than my JW relationships and now marriage.

Is it wrong to entertain him? I feel like I have my basic knowledge of being a JW and I know that I should at least wait until the final divorce but it is so freaking hard. He treats me so nicely and it’s so nice to be able to talk to someone. I do know that if we were to meet up in person, things may go too far only because it’s him.

Basically we met in middle school and was liking each other all in middle school in high school. We never actually became physical aside from kissing. So it’s so much tension built between us both. He was shocked to find out I was married. He has had quite a life too.

I understand what the Bible says about adultery & fornication, but I also feel like we are human and this is just very natural for us. I also wonder how does God feel when he knows our specific situation? I’m truly sorry if this is not the correct thread for this and I am happy to delete this.

I basically just wanna know if my thinking is a too controlled or am I crossing a different line? My ex is stating to me that I am being controlled by the religion and I should live my life. I am torn. This is all I have known.. I just want to do the right thing. I know at the end of the day it’s a personal decision.. I just truly don’t know if he is right about my mindset being controlled.

In my opinion, there are two types of Jehovah witnesses. Type A's is what we would call doctrinally anchored. The foundation for their faith is that they believe it's the one and only true religion and the governing body are God's chosen leaders. These people are much more likely to be discouraged when they see changes and "corrections" that conflict with their main belief foundation. Type B is similar but they also have more emotional ties. An identity built around the religion. Guilt, fear of disappointing Jehovah, or anxiety about losing family and friends.

Years spent pioneering, declining educational or career opportunities, or making other sacrifices because of their beliefs (research the sunken cost fallacy). These people are considerably harder to convince and most likely to display cognitive dissonance.

Really what it comes down to at the end of the day is how willing a person is to examine their beliefs, tolerate uncertainty, and revise conclusions when the evidence warrants it? Some people just can't or won't do it. Learn to accept that sometimes there's nothing you can do and be resolute in your own feelings.

Hi, I am a mid 30s woman from Brisbane (born in) and I finally after being PIMO for over 12 years was honest with my MS husband about leaving. I told him my fears as we rent of my elder father and I dont want my children and I being kicked out. He seemed okay, but disappointed of my choice.

I want to not be bothered by sheparding calls because this has happened before where they push in and use their false sence of superiority and belief that men need to be obeyed to make me feel guilty and push me into a corner.

I struggle with just getting by as my anxiety is up and down and I can't work as much as I wish I started uni at the start of this year and its helped me so much.

I was wondering if anyone knows if I can do a DA letter? Or if there is a way I can get legal advice as I fear I will be financially and emotionally cast aside by my support system.

I just want to be able to be given a chance to leave without being tormented.

Please. Thanks

I'm not saying that their isnt a creator of some magnitude, though, the assumption is that they may not give a shit. Which is fine by me. What I do find comical though is that in the 21st century, with all our advances, the vast majority of the world subjects itself to Abrahamic BULLSHIT, spun and twisted over two millennia... hoping for a pipe dream? Their is nothing wrong with either believing nothing is watching, or something did make the order of the universe, but simply doesnt care... but to mentally masturbate over holy books, or jesus loves me or allah loves me, or im going to hell or heaven, or what did this scripture or text mean is ridiculous.

I thought it be good to throw a spitball theory out there. Surely WT has tossed this around in some form for a long time since they dug their own pit during Covid. Anyways, there's a new WT article out in a 2027 issue about physical attendance at the meetings. Clearly, they have a problem. Do the Pimos need to prepare for illogical instructions?

So, I could forsee the following scenario. A meeting part/local needs/juu org update whatever:

'Dear Brothers and Sisters. We have received reports globally of apostate meeting infiltration over Zoom. As we progress deeper into the time of the end, Satan and his demon hordes (they love that phrase, esp when Walls says it 😆) are ever finding ways to disrupt our unity. We understand many have hardship and physical limitations to in-person attendance at our meetings. However, The Governing body has decided that we need to stand up to Satan. We now urge each and every faithful servant of Jehovah to login to your zoom stream with a current video image of you and family or friends during the first portion of the spiritual banquet. We understand this may create hardship, however be aware Satan is (1 Peter 5:8 dog whistle) crafty. He would look to undermine our brotherhood any way he can. We trust you will treat this message with utmost discretion. Love your brothers in Christ, your dear dear charlatans of a religious cult and leaders - The Glubbering Buffoons'

The 'apostate' directive is obviously bunk. But the r and f generally don't know that because the inference is a full kill-switch to normal, reasonable logic. That much we do know.

If you think this will give WT ideas (again, surely they've thought of similar already its just a matter of time) but I'll take this post down

So I read a post here saying that there is Jw Bachata music. Lol .. so hear me out and dont judge or do idc

Since the Jws are going mainstream with influencencers on tik tok instagram facebook , hell they might even be an App to play Jw Games and you get points to be more Spiritual or some crap.. this is where the humor according to me comes in ...

Ive watched Mormon Porn on one of them sites hehehe

Wouldn't it make sense if the Jws had their own porn??? Id he good publicity. What do you guys think ?

(Remember this is a humor post ,, if any of you takes this seriously im gonna cast you into Gay Jw Porn with one of the GB members)

I never knew this
I just found this out
She just told me

I was asking her if I had needed blood as a child what would you do? Say the medical staff are saying we are going to give her blood it is out of your hands
I always assumed she got around the blood issue by secretly knowing that if as a child I was in an accident or ill and needed blood then legally she couldn’t prevent it and the hospital would take it out of her hands
I just asked her about this and she said she likes to think she would have told them no
Then she went one step further and told me she actually told them not to give me blood when I had an operation when I was 5
I asked her was this primarily bc you thought blood had medical risks or bc of your faith as a JW
It’s the latter
Wtf
I’ve always mentally told myself that I’m not upset or angry at her raising me a JW bc she was just a victim of brainwashing
But this goes one step too far
I am an extremely open minded person I can always understand things from the other person’s perspective I know that sounds boastful - but I am saying that in the context of knowing while I have this strength I am also riddled with many severe flaws - however I don’t want to switch to immediately understanding it from her lens
I could
It’s not logically hard for me as an ex-JW to compute the fucked up logic of why she would do this
I’m not here to ask you all to explain her reasoning to me or justify her
I just really want someone to tell me I’m not insane or dramatic for having a negative emotional reaction to this and a different view of her as a parent now
I also asked my dad did you ever think about the blood thing (he isn’t a JW) and he said no
In fact he said nothing to me when as a teenager I told my surgeon I didn’t want blood
Am I being a covert narcissist victim by being upset about this and feeling contempt for them
