      Unfortunately Jehovahs witnesses were not the only religion to refuse to pay redress..Christadelphians also (only about 4 congregations out of about 60 Australia wide have signed onto redress scheme) They are laying low and so far have not got the press that JW’s did. Smaller numbers yes but pain is pain.

    I live in the UK. I have my own RUclips channel, which I started after I left the Organisation in 2022.
    I was in The Organisation for well over 30 years.
    On my channel, I expose many things that are not covered widely on other Ex JW channels.
    I have a video on my channel called ‘What happened when I discovered there was a paedophile in my congregation’
    As a young single mum, I was informed by the elders that I was in close contact with a known child molester in my congregation.
    I also expose the trauma of leaving the organisation, and many of the false teachings and links to the occult.
    Thank you for your work in exposing what really is going on behind the scenes of this dangerous cult, and keep up the good work you are doing, warning the general public of the dangers lurking within this organisation.❤

    Great video! I was raised a JW. I faded two years ago. As a child I was constantly bombarded with the threat of disfellowshipping. I knew a few people who were DFd and I never felt right about not speaking to someone who I was supposed to love. We were always told that those who got DFd chose to leave Jeh. In my adult life I found out that I have CPTSD. Not only from trauma at home but also from religious trauma. My own children despise the religion. I feel horrible for the children that are still being abused in this religion. It needs to be exposed openly, everywhere!

    Our family adopted JWs in 1965. Mum had an interest in it before we left Holland. The mental gymnastics that had to be done was very intense. I questioned as a young girl things they could not answer, I never stopped. My dad,brother, husband, younger sister were all disfellowshipped or ostracised , I also works the emotional brunt of all that. Then I started to do some serious questioning of the beginnings of the ORG. The interesting things that I found about CTRussell threw a lot of light on why it worked so well . When you find out why it was done, it explains why it worked so well in a medical sense NOW, with the pandemic. You might want to check that out Anusha ! It will explain a LOT. ❤ To everyone.

    Here are some important fact that most people do not know. The 6 Corporations, also known as the organization of Jehovah's Witnesses, created their own customized translation of the “Bible” in 1950, which included the New Testament. The King James Version (KJV) they were using before caused them many problems, after they changed their doctrines so they had to stop using the KJV and create their own customized made bible, which includes significant alterations to support their core teachings.
    Over the years, they created many New Revised Editions, one of which was the first complete New World Translation (NWT) that included both the Old and New Testaments in 1961. Since then, newer revised editions have been released. Here are the remaining revised editions in order: 1970, 1971, 1981, 1984, and 2013, all of which included more and more and more drastic alterations, such as verses removed, words altered, new words added, punctuation moved, verses restructured, and parts of chapters removed in order to support their false doctrines.

    As a faded JW myself of many yrs, the "two witness" rule to act on alleged sins or crimes was ALWAYS going to be VERY, VERY problematical for things like child (sexual) abuse. By its nature CSA is secretive so its a very very rare occasion that a perpetrator will get caught red handed by a "second" witness. So this blind adherence to this "rule" is going to get them into serious trouble - which it has. On the aspect of shunning is not only a thing JWs do, others do it as well. Its a childish practice but some groups use it as a form of punishment .But on the broader matter of behaviours, what about scrutinising the Muslims? Or are they untouchable for fear of their propensity for violence? Lets dive into Islam and expose the lack of human rights- especially that of women- in the countries that practice this vile idealogy. But no, we cant do that because the muslins will destroy life and buildings to show their indignation.

      2 Tim 3:1-5

      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).
