    Yes Jehovah’s Witnesses are a cult and if your friend joins they will stop being with you or around u till u join them ! I was In for 20 years left 4 years ago so I don’t advise it at all !

      I wouldn’t mind at all :) and if it’s already hard to talk about it , it only gets worse , unless your married they will keep advising her to not be with you or she can’t be a baptized JW , idk if it’s your friend or GF but yeah it’s club and your either in or not a part of they’re personal lives , my own family doesn’t speak with me since I left , I just turned 30 and it’s not the easier thing to deal with but I like to think for myself and not what a group tells me to think , and once your in that’s how they keep u in , bc if you leave your shunned by everyone you’ve ever known , for sure if your born into it

Wonderful website helped me wake up and to see all the FACTS ! They say god doesn’t changed yet they change rules and call it new light lol like an elder one of the leaders I know who kicked me out for smoking pot lol has been a elder for 30 years who’s ruined who knows how many likes by disfellowshiping members who’ve sinned just came out he’s been buying prostitutes and cheating on his wife the whole time lol but yet he’s got light from god lol and worthy to be a leader of the sheep lol they kicked him out to know so that’s the only plus but still things like that , and Aton of child abuse reports that they don’t report to anyone except headquarters bc it’ll make gods name * Jehovah * look bad

        It surprises me that in this day and age, that people still join up to religions like the JWs. 5mins on the internet should raise enough reasons to question it more.

I was 12 myself and 30 now and didn’t even realize at 12 I signed up for life to never question anything for myself ,it’s just really sad , and yes most are born into it or they come to u when your the most broken in your life like losing a husband or wife etc and ask would u like to see and be with them again ?! Ok well show you how ! And then there you go
