📑 Mi historia como testigo de Jehová. #JW⬇️

🤚Antes debo aclarar que hay mucho mas que contar, así que tendré una versión completa para publicarla en otro sitio en el futuro.

Por ahora, tratare de compartir o mas importante.

Disculpas por los errores ortográficos. 🤓
Mi primer contacto formal con los testigos de Jehová fue cuando tenía 16 años de edad.

Aunque de pequeño veía las ilustraciones del historias bíblicas.

Empecé a recibir estudio con una pareja de misioneros.
Ellos llevaban más de 40 años en mi país.
Yo vivía la mayor parte del tiempo solo, nos habíamos mudado de la ciudad a un pueblo más pequeño y mi mamá seguía trabajando fuera, lo que no le dejaba tiempo para estar casi en casa.

Todos los testigo de Jehová adoctrinados presentan argumentos y razonamientos parecidos. ¿Por qué?

Ellos se sienten orgullosos de poseer "la verdad", "hablar el lenguaje puro de la verdad" y "vivir en un paraíso espiritual".

¿Qué hay detrás de esta convicción?

Abro hilo⬇️
Cualquiera testigo creerá que sus creencias están bien fundamentadas, pues creen que la Biblia contiene la verdad y no tiene errores.

Llegan a esa conclusión gracias a todo el compendio de publicaciones de la sociedad #watchtower.
Ejemplo el testigo es convencido para que deseche su pensamiento critico, por ser poco confiable o "imperfecto".

¿En quien confiar entonces?

The natural response here is, "let's give the victims some space, so they can stabilize."

Instead, there's a herd of obsessive, psychotic people who migrated from a religion that called down fire upon gossiping while having the most gossip-riddled religion on the planet.
I get it... the religion with a vulture complex and ambulance-chasing spirituality ingrained a sense of reward in running about standing next to worse people so that one doesn't have to put forth any real work to be better.

And if a wife and child get's traumatized, so what?
"How about giving them some space."

"I'M CALLING OUT INFIDELITY"

That's a lie. You're gossiping for clout because in #JW world, gossiping was currency and how women leveled the playing field in a misogynistic faith where they will never be in control.

Some of the most important legal work in defense of constitutional limits on federal governance is being conducted by @JudicialWatch, led by @TomFitton.

True enough that I'm biased ... #JW's work has helped to expose @HillaryClinton's and @BarackObama's secret state.
I just finished reading a decision in one of their long-running FOIA lawsuits, #JudicialWatchvUSDeptofState. You can read the decision here:

The decision is by Judge Royce Lamberth, who serves as a federal district court judge, after he was confirmed to that position with the US District Court for the District of Columbia during the Reagan administration.

To #JehovahsWitnesses: it seems that many feel @LeahRemini's show was an attack on their religion. Understand that not once was any criticism of their doctrines called into question. People can believe what they want. The POLICIES are the problem. #exjw #jw #jworg /1
A policy that results in the separation of a person from their family is inhumane and wrong. It is nothing more than emotional blackmail. It is a tool of manipulation. No scriptures IN CONTEXT support this practice. #exjw #jw #jworg /2
A policy that results in the LOSS OF LIFE over the embellishment and misinterpretation of a dietary restriction does not show respect for life. Let that sink in. Suicide is not respectful of life. Neither is allowing you minor child to die. That is murder. #exjw #jw #jworg /3

A thread about #gratitude (with a twist) - I hope you’ll like and share...

Many years ago, when I was a young eager Jehovahs Witness, I travelled to South America. It was the biggest adventure I had ever been on, and I was prancing with excitement!!
#exjw #JW 1/
My companions were my #JW boyfriend (later husband), his brother and their one weird friend who I never knew whether to laugh with or call the police on. Anywho, we were together, and off on an incredible South American adventure /2
We landed in La Paz in Bolivia, the highest capital city in the world, 4000 ft above sea level. I remember feeling like I had been transported to another world. I was only 19 and this was totally foreign to me. And then the altitude sickness kicked in.... HARD... /3
