ABOUT ME: I’m a former Jehovah’s Witness who faded away from the religion around 2 years ago. I believe that current members of the organization deserve to be aware of the abuses committed by Watchtower. I am a big proponent of religious freedom and critical thinking, and invite my audience to be kind, open minded, and always stay curious.

“The governing body has decided”
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Could be literally anything at this point. What happened to "Jehovah directed us," or something similar. lol. They're not even trying now.
They have lost the plot
Someone should tell them God's name is not Jehovah
Roma locuta causa finita
Jehovas witness should just dissolve honestly. We’re all thinking the same thing.
The watchtower is fallling
Unfortunately, high control groups like this stick around for an indefinite period of time, as long as theirs people gullible enough to fall for them
@olivejewett literally all of us
Money counts for them and only money
I couldn’t agree more.
Whenever a religion is changing it s teachings/wordings it s a sign they getting too small and need more people (to fill their pockets)
What should the GB do, I ask you?? Work for their money?
@@Tabascofanatikerinwhy would they when they have all their sheep working for them and giving their own earned money, so sad
It's amazing that it only took Watchtower 70+ years to realise they'd been reading the text wrong!
Without an apology of course
They're uninspired 👈😡.That they'll admit but won't apologize. Arrogant pricks!
And they are saying they are making decisions thanks to the holy spirit ... but they can't get it right nonetheless.
@@PM-yc1rf or the Holy Spirit obviously can't know it all and has told them wrongly 🤷♀️
And Norway taking their free money away...
'How Jehovah has dealt with people who engage in serious sin.'
Well, Jehovah had someone stoned to death for collecting wood on a Saturday (hard, but fair!)
Bro also sent bears to maul children I think
Dude was totally asking for it!
Jehovah also sent a bear to maul a few kids just because they called one of his prophets bald lol
Oh and Jehovah had Abel give his daughters to soldiers so he could hide an angel in their home
Jehovah rewarding Cain for killing his brother by allowing Cain to SHAG his sister.
The governing body in court: We don’t control our members.
The governing body to their members: We’re updating who you’re allowed to speak to.
🥴
"GREAT NEWS: You are now allowed to say a brief 'Hello' to disfellowshipped persons! This is what the Governing Body has decided!" 🤡
So kind and merciful of Jehovah to change His policy to comply with Norwegian Law! As it was written!
This cult completely destroyed my family for 3 generations, starting with my great grandmother. My parents were all ex-communicated after realizing that Jesus was the only way. I am now an adult and married. Please pray for restoration within our family due to the generational damage and psychological abuse done by this JW cult. 🙏
same. Literally sounds like we could be from the same family
So you left one cult and joined another one congratulations.
@@DanaTheInsane fr
@@DanaTheInsaneChristianity isn’t a cult.
@@Batnoodlesfundamentalist Christianity is most certainly a high demand cult.
I’m not even ex-JW, I just like the gossip 🤭🤭🤭
Same 😂
Fr it’s just interesting to see how other religions function to me…
Same
Right! I Christian myself but seeing how JW runs, I know I would never become one. I just can’t see how they feel comfortable to shun their family.
Me too 😂
I was DF at 15 for being a victim of a sex crime; this led to me attempting suicide within the following weeks. My parents didn’t allow me to keep in contact with my “worldly” extended family, so the congregation was all I knew when it came to family and community. I know of a lot of elders’ children that have done a lot more and receive no punishment. Idc if the shunning is over, there needs to be a formal apology for bs that should’ve never happened. It’s child abuse
I'm sorry what the FUCK
wtf
This stuff be making my blood boil man I can’t stand this cult
I’m so sorry you had to experience that 😢
They don't study the Bible, they study Watchtower publications.
But the Bible you study from is missing some verses. It is taking away from God's word. Very deceptive.
If they studied watchtower publications, they'd be honest about the pyramidology used in the original 1914 'prophecy' which wasn't even 1914 anyway......or that the worship of Yeshua (Jesus) was on the books till 1999. Or the mistranslating the Greek word for worship only when applied to Yeshua.
They will be going to Hell because they deny the dirty of Christ. They believe that the "Governing Body" speaks for God. They practice shunning and cover up reported cases of Child Sexual Abuse. That is NOT of God. They are leading many AWAY from salvation. I feel sorry for them but they will answer for their sins one day.
LMAOOOO
As someone from Norway, all I can say is, WE GOT ‘EM BOYS! (Ladies and gentlemen, we got him.) End this cult!
Wow they are getting desperate to hold on to the members they have left. I bet birthdays are on deck next
The government $$ is what they are desperate for. All those funded dollars .
Surely that's next! No JW can explain why they don't celebrate birthdays without sounding ridiculous - no biblical reason whatsoever. 🤪
It's always breadcrumbs the GB grant...wearing a beard, wearing slacks (MODEST!!), saying a brief Hello to disfellowshipped JWs...I guess an update regarding birthdays will have the same dimension.
For example: "you may say a special prayer to Jehovah, thanking for your birthday. And a slice of cake is fine as long as you don't have a party."
I feel tatoos are the more natural progression. Even tho there are bible verses condemning tattoos, knowing the gb, they'll definitely find a way to reinterpret that verse as something different. A lot of the rules put in place happened when Rutherford came into power, and he wanted to set himself apart from Russell. Not only thst but certain rules make hws stand out from other religions, which is exactly what the leaders want. Not to mention that it makes certain members feel special that their religion is the only one that does certain things or doesn't allow certain things.
I don't see holidays. I see the blood issue. They are being sued and that one kills people. The government has been taking their kids away to give them blood for decades now. But this group who knows right! And breadcrumbs exactly!!
I love how the jehovah witnesses take a verse out of the bible without knowing the context behind it...
Or just straight up ignoring it under the excuse of "just wait"
So much for bible studying 🤔
From which of the numerous "bibles" they wrote themselves in order to fit their understanding/desires at that time.
I know we just love a of lack context don’t we.
Which was translated out context in the first place. 😂
So, all this is is a going out of business sale. Last throes, no reporting time, beards, ladies dress pants…. They are hemmoraging too many people and this is a last ditch effort to keep them in. This cult isn’t the same cult I grew up in…. The light isnt getting brighter it’s freaking changing colors.
love the last part: The light isn't getting brighter it's freaking changing colors...lol You got that right
At this rate they may even celebrate Christmas by december.
Yes. Before that, it will be birthdays. You are now allowed to celebrate your family members' birthday as long as it is done in a dignified way.
@@nurhanedizboyacioglu3040 NO BIRTHDAY CAKES, because birthday cakes weren’t ever mentioned in our bible. We will now allow presents, but the board of Jehovah’s witnesses has decided that God doesn’t want the value of the gift to be over $50.
Not likely JW’s will celebrate holidays
It's possible. I got my elder brother to admit that if there's no decorations, no christmas music (I make my parents turn it off cause I can't stand it anyway), we don't say merry christmas, he'd come over for dinner. He already gets together with friends for dinner with non-traditional x-mas food that day anyway cause they're not working. I told him the only reason we even bother having dinner together that day is cause it's a guaranteed day off from work.
@@kilroy107They can easily say the light got brighter and they reexamined the scriptures and that Birthdays are now allowed to be acknowledged.
Tony Morris: "We definitely won't be doing that."
2023-2024: Tony out. Beards allowed, relaxed punishment. Pants allowed by women.(Tight pants?), talk to DF at meetings, etc.
Wow
My dad once did a local need's talk because some people had mouthed "hello" to a disfellowshipped lady at the memorial
These changes however small are no joke, they have tossed out more than a centuries worth of rules and dogma. If I traveled to 2010 and said a bearded governing body member was giving a talk about women wearing pants they would immediately deal with me. Thats how crazy it all is, I can only imagine whats next LOLL.
Soon enough they’ll actually read the damn book instead randomly opening a page, pointing at bible verse and taking more rights for no reason!
Just pull out the original Greek and Hebrew on them that’s what I like to do. I’ve actually had quite a few experiences with Jehovah witnesses and explaining why there doctrine is heretical. Ive noticed that the Holy Spirit works in Ways I can’t completely put into words. Like I used to work at Home Depot and I was explaining the Trinity to one of my Jehovah witness coworkers and these people were coming by trying to steal from the store and they saw us discussing the Trinity, like the full on Nicene council and decided to go put the stuff they were planning to steal back. Also I think it opened up my coworkers eyes to the trinity and to the massive theological and accuracies within the Jehovah witness heresy.
@@Caligulashorse1453John 1 is my favorite to go to because the NWT butchers those verses so bad.
Murderers child abuserers are accepted with a warm hello, but so called apostates who point out to the TRUTH are the worst people on earth.
Craziest talk I ever heard: they are bleeding and yet they want to show that they have control over biblical interpretation and how to dress
They just started allowing beards because they themselves want beards
Because its accepted now and and every man and his Schnauzer has one
@ClovisPoint in the Bible, makeup was a no-no, because it reflected immorality
However, many witness women wear makeup
When I studied with the witnesses, I often attended meetings
I noticed many of the women wore eyeshadow and lipstick
To be fair, I did too
But, I wore way less than they did
Crazy they just keep on changing trying to hold their customers 😂
They want that tax exempt money
At last, something you said is true! JW is going down the pan, and the damage it'll do to all those who still don't see the cultist behaviour, that's who I worry for.
That's very culty!
When they first got backlash for the shunning policy, they were steadfast in saying they wouldn't change for some government. It's God's way and they can't just change it on a whim!
It's truly amazing how quickly they then seemed to get this *totally coincidental* revelation that they are changing the shunning policy
That's what happens when governments are more real than God. One of those will have consequences that hurt more than the other.
I’m late to the party. All you minors out there that know this is bs just play your role. Get a job at McDonald’s. Long hours. Save up. And fade. Or wait til 18 and bounce. Good luck guys. You can do it.
This is disgusting . They think that changing DF so u can say hello and they think that's going to make a difference? It's just to get people coming ba k. 13:45 omg what the hell. It's just to get money again . I just got a message from my elder brother just invited me to the memorial this moring just before I saw this video.
Right. I’d rather people continued ignoring me if i ever did step foot in a hall again, this just shows how fake the people in the org are. Id be pissed if the same people who treated me as if i has horns growing out my head all of a sudden came up to me to say hi all cuz of what these fat @zzess said
Lol I can see all of the JW women wearing pants and the men not wearing ties or suits. Even the women will let their beards grow out just to feel some sense of freedom.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol
They have something against the woman looking hot and having sexy body
Your attention to the Norway flag detail is admirable! Which makes me wonder that the governing body is a board of wicked vampires that think of their propaganda to the slightest detail...
In my opinion, yep they do. You can see it in the way they so carefully choose their words. It's crafty and very intentional, they know exactly what they're doing.
Sounds like the dog went back home to New York with his tail tucked between his legs.
Mark Sanderson's NORWAY FLAG TIE is so very subtle and subliminal that many would have missed it - Not!
Pathetic
Your reaching kinda
They are getting better and better at subliminal images...
The Governing Body telling grown men and women, whose bills they are not paying, when, how, and to whom they can speak, also what they can wear and when is just ridiculous.
Keep the elders away from your kids
My Nigerian brother; what the hell? 😂, random but dude there’s only been 1 case of a elder Doing something ton somone and that person was a apostate
@@TheMRWELLS
Lie.. elders are known to be kid touchers
@@733t0ne-yd6qf what R you yapping about. Mabye your elders in your religion but not ours. Lol and there’s no proof and no cases so keep talking pal 😂
@TheMRWELLS
You asked for it..
I'll start with two legal situations You currently have in the US alone. And I'll add a extra as well.
1. The JWs have been paying out the ass because the California state government wants access to your internal crimes database. You know the system I'm talking about. You are being fined daily for not handing over the crimes in the congregation.
2. Illinois had to pass a law. Forcing your elders to undergo yearly training on SA because it's so prevalent and your elders cover it up so much.
Now the extra. Kid touchers all across America's penal system know that JW is where it's at.. because you don't work with law enforcement and you have the 2 witness rule and the 3 council review. Your organization is LITERALLY the choice for kid touchers... and this is through your prison ministry..
I know so much more.. would you like me to stop now.. or...
@TheMRWELLS
I'm still here Bub.. still yappin.. you want to reply so the people can see how full of shit you are.
The fact my religion is even remotely connected to these fools anger me
If you don’t mind me asking, what’s your religion?
@@Sprigatito1234 I happen to be Jewish.
The thing is the governing body is saying that the elders meet with a with a child and their parents and the child is is repentant then the elders need to go back and check every few months to make sure the parents are doing a good job with their kids so they're basically CPS workers now
Right! It’s just one more role they are wholly unqualified to perform.
And the elders now also can be like 20 year olds, right?
And I bet the kid's "serious sin" is something like accepting a birthday present or getting a temporary tattoo lol
Probably making sure the child doesn't tell anyone of the sexual abuse they've suffered.
"We're certainly not going to change the way we practice our religion. Unless the old white guys at the top decide otherwise, and we'll let you know."
Disfellowshipped apostate here, while I have no interest in going to a meeting, I also no longer have interest in speaking to any of the JWs if I were to go to a meeting. After 20 years of disfellowshipping, believe me, I'm good. I've already dealt with losing everyone from my childhood (including some family members), and I've done all the necessary therapeutic acts to move past all this BS. Just because the religion suddenly adjusts their thinking (due to worldly government legal rulings), doesn't mean they get a pass for cutting off those they disfellowshipped for decades.
It should be forbidden for minor to be baptised PERIOD ! They are not mature enough to make this kind of lifechanging decisions..
Waiting for them to finally allow homosexuality🎉
Well they’ve chosen the right spokesman here if rumors are to be believed ..
The long-awaited cave update.
If it took like 100 years to allow beards when there was no scriptural basis, and havent allowed blood transfusions based on a HYPER dodgy bad interpretation of a single verse, they wont ever allow what its strictly taught against
I'm gonna start my own cult and not change the rules and be homophobic and transphobic and keep woman in there proper place
Anyway, I'm not returning
It’s crazy that they don’t understand that allowing people to only say “hello” to those disfellowshipped underscores that they’re a cult.
I’m so happy about the pants I won’t feel as dysphoric at the meetings, that way I can hold out longer until I can move out
That's awesome! Good luck and stay strong :)💪
Sending you so much love and strength!
They should have done this earlier. My father was disfellowship and was obsessed with getting reinstated. Being an alcoholic in which there was no cure for him, he drank himself to death
My mind is still stuck on the beard thing. I grew up on _Beards are BAD because _*_Jehovah!_* and now... 😵💫
I was so embarrassed as a kid when my dad attended the memorial with a BEARD. Everyone stared at him 😂 Jehovah was not ok with beards. I can't look at that Mark Sanderson guy.....it's all wrong 😂

NEW LIGHT JUST DROPPED 💡💡💡
Has anyone ever had a subscription that automatically renews itself after the initial trial period and when you choose not to renew you get bombarded with "one time only deals" and "offers too good to pass up" so they keep you hooked and on their books...kinda like Columbia House back in the day...
Are they offering any apologies to those who have had their lives ruined by shunning? This feels like a kick in the teeth
I doubt that, they think apologizing is like confessing the crime in court 🤡😭
One would have thought that the almighty (?) "Governing Body" would have come to these "conclusions" a long time ago. 🙄
Its amazing how quickly bible principles change once money is involved.
9:07 The warmth! The sincerity! Reminds me of a family reunion at an orphanage.
The cringe is real!
I took a shot every time he said “governing body has decided” and I ….🤮…🥴
Panda, you were the first person I looked for when my mother in law showed me the broadcast.
They cant even warm up to the df'd or lead with an appropriate apology. Not an invite to dinner, straight to the culty invite. They can use their bible trained conscience...or lack there of, to decide for themselvesish- Totally not a cult...uh
New cult update just dropped Woop Woop!
Loving your content bro! I grew up in very intensely Christian Pentecostal environment, even was homeschooled with curriculum that tried to indoctrinate me with so many of the same lessons about wearing business attire to please God haha. I’m still Christian, but I hate all the bs from people like this. I’d love to see you cover more religions or Christian denominations in the future as there are so many common threads between them
The new direction is defunct.... When I wasn't disfellowshipped no one wanted to say "Hello" to me anyway. Least I could count them on one hand.
I've heard a rumor that they'll be dropping the No birthday's rule too and they'll be calling it something like Birth Anniversary...who knows anymore!
Really!!!! wow !!!!!
I never understood why they don't celebrate birthdays, God is love, and they would love you to be happy on a special day.
Man these guys are like game developers with their dropping of updates
Religion patch notes is crazy
MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, There on there KNEES now, begging!!!
They act like they want to be your friend. BS
Holy frick! I thought that beard was an edit. That's a real beard?!?! Damn this religion is totally different now. But to be honest, Mark looks much better with a beard 😅
But all these bursts of "new light" are just reactionary because of the consequences they are feeling from governments from all over the world. Funny how merciful God has become right after the verdict from Norway haha 😅. This religion is just getting so desperate now cause they feel the religion falling apart.
How is a dress or skirt more modest than pants? You can look up a skirt/dress WAY easier than pants!
It’s not really about modesty, it’s more about denoting them as lowly females. We were second class, always, with occasional pats on the head to fool us into thinking they respected us as equals.
In the story of Christ's prodigal son, modified by the Governing Body, when the prodigal son arrived at his Father's house, the Father said to him: Hi, it's good to see you here, and then he went to feed corn to the chickens, while the prodigal son stayed there. standing, with my mouth open, thinking, wow, after 20 years, I return to my Father's house and I only receive a hello, I wanted at least a hug and a cup of coffee, so the sad prodigal son left, two hours later the father meets him on the street, the son says to him: Hi Father, the Father doesn't respond and remains silent and thinking, the governing body only allowed him to say hi if the son goes to the kingdom hall.
I'm late ... are women allowed beards now?
😂😂😂😂😂
The w in jw stands for wishy-washy
8:55 'Can decide to use their Bible-trained conscience'''' - well I don't know about you, but my conscience doesn't wait for my decision; it tells me straight away what it thinks. You can choose to ignore your conscience, but you can't faile to hear it.
Ah shit, here we go again
JW women never had it so good... which is sad.
HYPOCRISY! This is what I hear! No member of my pack would be brainwashed…
I think the Watchtower is fixing to get rid of this fellowshipping. And this is just a stepping stone. The thing is if they got rid of this fellowshipping instantly JWs would be so indignant for having to shun they'd just leave.
I genuinely wonder how the governing body thinks about their own actions. How can they claim that they are loyal to Jehovah's word and doctrine when they can apparently just change the rulings whenever it fits them.
Man, this cult sucks ass.
And I'm my parents are a part of dem I just don't like the complete disassociation with former witnesses and smthims even people that are no a part of the religion
Imagine getting df'd or just stopped going to meetings a couple of years ago and they reach out and you decide I'll take a ride to the being and you walk in and dudes are wearing beards, with are wearing pants, dudes don't have ties on, and people actually come up to you to say hi. You'd be like wtf happened????
Going to my first meeting in close to ten years. I'm not sure what to expect lol
Don't worry y'all, not going back but my mom's talking to me again and ya girls going to win some brownie points.
Seen pandas vid and I guess this is why I'm invited.
Money money! Watchtower loves the money, money!💰
I wonder if they'll still keep these changes if Norway doesn't recognize them.
“Brother and sister can use their Bible trained conscious “
They mend: Governing body trained conscious
I loved the grimace that the brother & sister had when they were welcoming the DF’d lady to the KHall. It was like, “uuughhh, do we really have to do this?” Beard or not, Fuck Mr. Pork Sandwichson!!!!
That's why I won't even greet a JW.

@@mr.finger9877 What I meant is that I could have just ignored them, instead of my time with lunatics. Why do you care anyway?
Wake me up when they allow women elders.
I remember a crumb of recognition they gave women who act as elders in their community, and I waited on tenterhooks for them to update their sexist doctrine, but of course they had to wink and laugh at how “of course these women could never BECOME elders…”. It felt like a little death. We are second class, with worthless words of thanks at how much women carry everything there. Many more problems than this, but this one hurt the most.
They arent giving up control like that. Maybe carry mics in a few years....
Get rid of scripture that says not even giving a greetings to such a person and then they turn around and say if they come in the Kingdom Hall you can greet him and say hello and see how they're doing what a f****** crock of s***
I’d rather they didn’t speak to me at all cuz at this point I’ve learned to not care anyway. This would just feel so fake
If I question anything the elders say, I'm an apostate. These people dont even know the meaning of apostate
Its Brother Santason fading off and Thanks Panda for a another good one 😅* cheers 🥂 all *
They’re aren’t saying oh we were wrong at all! They already made a previous statement that’s there’s no need for apologies !
Even if GB 'fixed' all the worst and most abusive policies, they would still deserve to collapse. Their past sins and the lives they have destroyed can't really be apologized for (not that they would).
Blood is next maybe reporting CSA to authorities? Get victims support instead of judgment? Etc?
they sound desperate. their numbers must be dwindling.
Commanding women to not wear pants or commanded men to wear suits and ties is such a weird flex because neither of those were really around during the early ministry days of the Disciples, Jesus made it simple Love God and Love Others everything else just falls into place after that.
Introducing: Shun Lite ™️
Next update: smoking weed is now allowed
I'm disfellowshipped, I don't want the elders coming around, telling a JW that I'm disfellowshipped and watching them run was my favorite thing
Wow!! Where were these changes when I was there 😂😂
”They crush people with unbearable religious demands and never lift a finger to ease the burden.“
Matthew 23:4
before he was just bald it was no problem now they have a beard they look like one of those charlatans from the old testament 😂
He actually do look better with a beard.
Yeah it hides his fat chin
Jehovah will soon give the governing body a new light to be able to wear wigs.😅
@@tedlee594 they always allowed wigs just waiting for the patch update were being gay is allowed
So they patched the not talking to disfellowshipped bug but there’s still complications.. this update sucks
There is a problem with this little disfellowship adjustments because still doesn't factor personality differences between their members. There will always be people who enjoy having small talk with others, and to some of them what seems like a lengthy amount of small talk conversation is to them a short enough conversation to acknowledge someone's presence in the Kingdom hall, but they are at risk to be judged for being too friendly when they're interacting with a disfellowshipped one. That's gonna be a yikes moment! and things would've been far better off in comparison when disfellowshipped ones were still to never have any communication whatsoever due to that instruction being clearer. I hope the JW members everywhere are physiologically equipped enough to handle nuances about such a very sensitive manner.
You’re absolutely right! They don’t adequately consider personality differences because the religion focuses so much on conformity. A lot of JW folks really do think that adherence to the religion simply erases most substantial cultural and individual differences. To some degree it works, too. I think that’s part of the mental health crisis going on in the org. Constantly policing and suppressing your every characteristic is a mental health disaster. Now they’re adding one more ambiguous rule for people to fret over and to possibly be punished for when they don’t even have a clear definition of what they’re supposed to be doing in the first place.
Dont worry, Elders will walk around with stopwatches to enforce the rules 🤣

If i were on the governing body id make up a rule sunday meetings everyone has to chew gum doing a head stand just because i could
Can't wait for the next balance change, the meta has been getting quite stale.
I will say Jw have there own bible and I know because when I was discussing theology with a Jehovah witness and explaining the Trinity to them, and explaining that it was in the Old Testament there translation of the Bible effectively didn’t have it in there. This is why personally for me. I return it to the original Greek and Hebrew because English as a translation struggles enough plus with people twisting the word to make it say what they want is not OK. Heresy is no joke, especially the Jehovah witness heresy.
Here in Brazil men never did use a tie and jacket in the field. I think is due to the heath.
