    When I left the cult I was born into, the JWs weren't allowed to seek outside help such as life coaches and therapists. The elders pretended to be experts at that. Those quacks hurt so many vulnerable people. As Miranda's parents tried hard to keep her under their control, they hired a therapist and it backfired. They wanted her to feel weak and mentally unstable to trust the Botchtower's external guidance but the therapist taught her how to empower herself by trusting her gut and putting herself first. Watchtower's Kill, Death and Suicide themes are global culture that doesn't cause JWs to budge. What spineless dysfunction for a global society!

    On my journey out of the JWs, I was a mess and wanted to fit in with "the world" fast. Not good for mental health. Lol During that time, I remember telling my therapist that I threw the baby out with the bath water and I shamed myself for doing that. My thoughts on this now, if you are leaving a cult, maybe there were some things that seemed to be beneficial when still in but at the same time, a cult is a cult is a cult and cults are controlling, harmful and unhealthy for anyone's autonomy and right to think for themselves. My thoughts on community and cultures....there have been sooo many things that have broken down the sense of community and deeply rooted cultures. Colonization, the Jesuits, Catholicism, wealth, greed, propaganda which has influenced capitalism, politics, our food supply and so much more. I personally believe if you want to truly influence change, you have to start with you and your family and your local community, then branch out from there. And the other way to influence change for the better is through education. Such as this conference. Those are all things that start healthy communities. I love your work Scott and all that you do. And all the efforts of everyone else trying to change the way we handle cults and movements that are harmful. Thank you!

      Today I was interviewed on another podcast and the host brought up that her conclusion after getting out of an extremely controlling cult was that autonomy is the first value to uphold in society for a healthy community and society. I just re-read your comment here. I find it interesting that you specifically pointed out autonomy being at risk from. Thank you for commenting and I really appreciate the compliment. I feel that everyone who learns these hard won lessons adds much value by sharing their insights in any way they can. Most people never learn what we learned by direct experience from being pressured, coerced, and successfully navigating the situation to finally see the world with our unique skill sets. It's a pleasure to share and communicate on the topic.

    There's so much in this, thank you Scott, really fascinating points. I've been out of the jdubs for 30 years now & I'm still piecing myself together. I was an angry atheist but gradually have gravitated toward spirituality but it's a minefield! Are you aware of the work of Joanna Kujath? I believe she is a New Zealander & ex jw. If you haven't already, she might be someone to connect with.... On community, I think a strong community is made up of empowered individuals, whereas a cult seeks to take your energy in every way it can. I haven't really been able to sucessful join any group or form one, as my cult detector radar is probably over developed!! As for government, since the lockdown era, more than ever I see them using the F.O.G method & am dismayed. Some people think Wim Hof is trying to be a cult leader but I actually think he's genuinely trying to get us all to discover our innate inner power. Kind of related to that & something else you mentioned about the lack of white culture - I was glad to hear you acknowledge the destruction of our 'tribal' roots way back. I read a book by Sigrid Undset, a Norwegian writer, I think called Lavransdatter (or something like it) which refers back to the time when the church systematically disconnected the Scandinavian people from the old ways. Sorry for the long message! I really appreciate the work you're doing. I'm respectful of any ex jw's stance on belief & get it but the missing element (from my point of view currently) is a spiritual connection to the universe & a discovery of our sovereignty. Enjoy NZ! ☺🙏

    In your dreams - "They Not Like Us" The witnesses are the only ones that do the preaching work, follow The Model Prayer and Jesus' New Commandments and remain separate from this wicked world. The only ones who honor God's name, restored God's name in their Bibles, and do what the Bible commands us to do. Organized religion hates God's name and his people and have removed God's name from their Bibles 6,828 places and only worship the son, sports and holidays. They have made themselves enemies of Jehovah God, along with you! Christians is not the name of God's people. Guess who's going to heaven and who's going to hell? If you hate God's name and his people, it means that you are wicked!!!! "You are my witnesses," is the utterance of Jehovah, even my servant whom I have chosen. There are no other witnesses other than Jehovah's Witnesses (who are called by his name). Isaiah 42:8 I am Jehovah. That is my name. Isaiah 43:7 Everyone who is called by my name, And whom I created for my own glory, Whom I have formed and made. Isaiah 43:10 "You are my witnesses," is the utterance of Jehovah, even my servant whom I have chosen. - This scripture is very clear that the witnesses and Jesus Christ, both belong to Jehovah God. Isaiah 43:11 I am Jehovah, and besides me there is no savior. Isaiah 43:12 So you are my witnesses,” declares Jehovah, “and I am God. Revelation 1:5 and from Jesus Christ, “the Faithful Witness,” - Even Jesus Christ was a witness Ezekiel 3:19 If you warn them and they refuse to repent and keep on sinning, they will die in their sins. But you will have saved yourself because you obeyed me. Revelation 14:20 And the winepress was trodden outside the city, and blood came out of the winepress as high up as the bridles of the horses, for a distance of a thousand six hundred furlongs. Revelation 19:21 But the rest were killed off with the long sword of the one seated on the horse, which [sword] proceeded out of his mouth. And all the birds were filled from the fleshy parts of them. Psalms 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God. Psalms 37:20 For the wicked themselves will perish, And the enemies of Jehovah will be like the preciousness of pastures. They must come to their end. In smoke they must come to their end. Matthew 7:14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. When the wicked enter hell - that will REALLY fix their thinking!

    I'm a Pagan Intervention Specialist - I warn the wicked of their pending doom! FYI I didn't watch this trash video, the title says it all - it screamed "PEOPLE WHO HATE GOD'S ORGANIZATION" We are to warn the wicked to turn around before it's too late. When you enter hell there will be no more confusion - Get it! Read below: But as for you, if you warn the wicked and he does not turn from his wicked deed and from his wicked lifestyle, he will die for his iniquity but you will have saved your own life.” Ezekiel 3:17-19. In this passage, God instructs a messenger to warn the wicked of their impending doom and to urge them to change their ways. If the messenger fails to warn the wicked, God will hold them responsible for the wicked person's death. However, if the messenger does warn the wicked and they still choose to sin, they will die for their sins, but the messenger will have saved their own life. The passage emphasizes the importance of faithful messengers in a world that often overlooks the seriousness of moral choices. Reference: According to the Bible, the wicked will be raised from the dead and face God's judgment. They will be turned into hell, cut off, and destroyed. They will be vexed, gnash their teeth, melt away, and perish. Their own iniquities and sins will capture and hold them. The Bible also calls the wicked to repent and turn to God before it is too late. If you hate God's name and his people, it means that you are wicked. Psalms 37:20 For the wicked themselves will perish, And the enemies of Jehovah will be like the preciousness of pastures; They must come to their end. In smoke they must come to their end.

Reference: According to the Bible, the wicked will be raised from the dead and face God's judgment. They will be turned into hell, cut off, and destroyed. They will be vexed, gnash their teeth, melt away, and perish. Their own iniquities and sins will capture and hold them. The Bible also calls the wicked to repent and turn to God before it is too late. As we read through these scriptures, we see that Jesus was also a witness - Jesus Christ, “the Faithful Witness" If you hate God's name and his people, it means that you are wicked. Psalms 37:20 For the wicked themselves will perish, And the enemies of Jehovah will be like the preciousness of pastures; They must come to their end. In smoke they must come to their end. Your relationship is with Jehovah God, not the elders, ministerial servants, pioneers, governing body, NO. If they are disrespectful leave and find a new Kingdom Hall that is kind and loving. It's that simple.

      "Must" seems a bit strong... "Christ is the end of the law." [Paul] That seems pretty clear that no one has to do anything that the bible says, especially christians. It's a Jewish book. The greek scriptures were written and collected by Paul after spending his first couple of decades as an adult hunting and killing christians. Are you going to follow that guy?

      @@bananaislandfilms Shunning is necessary - 2 Tim 3:5 "and from these turn away" The Bible warns us to stay away from the wicked, it's also known as (bad association) 1 Corinthians 15:33. 1 Corinthians 15:33 Do not be misled. Bad associations spoil useful habits. The Bible is very clear; stay away from the wicked (turn away). If they hate God's name and his people, they are wicked. 2 Tim 3:1-5 1 But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here. 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, self-assuming, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, 3 having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, 4 betrayers, headstrong, puffed up [with pride], lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power; and from these turn away. Job 9:24 The whole earth is in the hands of the wicked, and God blinds the eyes of the judges. If he’s not the one who does it, who is? 1 John 5:19 We know that we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one. Proverbs 29:2 When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: But when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn. Matthew 7:14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. Isaiah 12:2 KJV Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation. John 6:44 Jesus says, No man can come to me unless the Father, who sent me, draws him. So, we see the whole world lies in the power of the wicked one, and only a few are finding their way. Why would we want to associate with wicked people (bad association) when we have been warned and know nothing good comes from it. Instead, we want to honor and respect Jehovah God, his name and his organization so we will be far from the wicked and false religion (Babylon the Great). If we apply the counsel of the Bible; we won't be misled and risk the opportunity to receive everlasting life.

He told me they were told by headquarters to shred documents , and then the next time I was at the KH there were brothers in the back room with the door closed shredding, because one came out and I saw in the room for a second. And they didn’t clean all the shreds up

    Great video! They allowed my jw sister with a 3 year old daughter to marry an older creepy JW man who we feel sure they already knew had been reported on as a child s molesterer to his niece. She eventually took her own life. He then abused the 3 year old, also s abused his own children and physical abuse to my sister. They disfellowshipped her for making the wise decision to flee. I wrote a poem about it. She's still mentally affected to this day over 35 years ago. Ruined her life and the children and he's still running around in the JW kingdom hall.
