All people want to be seen, heard ... and loved. The human ego is essential to a healthy life. However, with a quick look at their history, it's easy to see that the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses have found ways to manipulate the egos of over eight million people. How do they do it? We take a look at the subtle programming utilized by the nine guys in upstate New York.

Good one. I think we all remember the handful of brothers who were prominent at every convention and assembly, you know, the ones who read the accounts report, had key talks and never sat in the audience and paid attention. An experience I had was going to the assembly hall in Natick, Ma. for a memorial in 2013 where Sam Herd was giving the talk. First of all, it was an hour's drive with a 12yo who had to get up for school the next day, and second, Herd is a nut, a wacko. I had him for many years as a District Overseer and the off the wall stuff he would say was legendary. This memorial talk was no exception, typical weirdness. Anyway, after the talk several hundred people lined up like a receiving line to meet him and his wife. Such creature worship. I wanted to get in line to give him counsel for not being respectful and dignified by cracking jokes and going on tangents, but I was already feeling nauseous so I left😆

A smart sister would do well to find a mate with a good steady income. Watchtower titles and positions of authority do little to increase one's bank account. Marrying a man who lives in a trailer, owns two polyester suits and washes windows for a living should not be her first choice for a husband. Despite his standing in the Org.

Thank you, Stacey, for covering this topic. Even those of us who tried to reach out for the responsibilities without wanting the titles were affected by the Society in an adverse way. But, what really got under my collar was when you quoted from "The Watchtower" of December 2023 (just a few months ago, and, thus, still current) in the article directed at sisters. In pushing the idea of marriage, the Society told sisters regarding their prospective mates: 'Remember, you'll be submitting to their headship.' That goes to something I've been saying about the Society for several years now, to wit, that there is absolutely no place within that organization for the ERA. At this late date, for the Society to put such a sentence as that in print underscores the misogyny which permeates the entire organization. That fact is also emphasized by your example of how the Society refuses to tell the life stories of sisters who are struggling to make ends meet while raising their children as single mothers and, consequently, barely managing to spend two hours each month in the field service. It's sickening to say the least. But, I'm glad that I'm not the only one who recognizes that. Thanks again, Stacey.

Welcome back from your coffee experience, lucky guy, I would like to recommend to you if you see it, a yellow bag of Cafe Duran, Panama's finest. Having taken a tour of a Panamanian coffee plantation it was awesome. But anyways on the lines of ego, Wow, watched the week a brother was announced to be a new elder, his wife and children instantly stepped up on their own high platform and no longer greeted or shook hands to certain rank-in-file friends. Remember more than once getting my hand left out without a nod or say hello only to have them turn an walk away. When he lost his elders title because of his son being disfellowshipped, humble pie was served. When he got the title back the wife and daughters attitudes came right back on like a light switch. Also an elder in charge of outside cleaning once blew up on me after the end of Wednesday night meeting because I didn't remind him of the Saturday cleaning. Did it matter, it was always my son, myself, a different elder and two dedicated sisters. The rest were in high-an-mighty mode. The use of mowers after all, is grunt work for the most basic publishers. Not those who are sophisticated an doing the life saving work at the local donut store.

Yes scoffers always existed! And Jesus flipped over tables when leadership got out of line too! ....and we have our Whistle-blower PIMOs doing the same by leaking all the injustice so it can be spread it to the masses so no other innocents get caught up in the lies of Watchtower slave labor corporation! 🙌 TABLE FLIPPED!! 😅

The only reason the first 9 fathers have other sons and daughters is to avoid people claiming the world that drowned was ten men and their wives. Since we all come from three sons, it ignores Noah had 100,000s descendents who all drowned in the Flood for not building arks nor getting on his. That also goes for those three sons having children before the Flood. Further 7 calendars verify the birth of Arpaxad in the 2nd year as 2368bc April 4 (601-7-01) which means he was conceived on the grounded ark 600-10-01. So also that WT lie of saying they waited until AFTER armageddon. Shem's wife walked off the ark at 3 months pregnant and descended at 5 months pregnant (4m 26d).

dasight? Freud? ahhh daMIrror? I'm looking at the man in the mirror the JW singer who loves kids as Jesus did and said to, but Lett says call them little enemies while MJ says goose them with the duck and let them know your duck jusice is love juice. BTW another depth study, Canaan tied a string around grandpa's duck to walk it, and Shem & Japheth wouldnt look much less touch it and take the string off. Moses uses it as reason to take Canaan, but allothernations also did (Assyria, Babylon, Persia, Greeks, Rome, Moslems, Catholics). The woman said to the woman. She concluded despite the snake crawled away. So Adam should have said well you lost your evidence crawling away so i'll wait 24 hours to see how you poop or vomit. Adam hated Eve because he hated himself having acted against his own knowedge that crab apples (groves) are ignored by animals for a reason, and the yellow apples (groves) were awesome for the stomach. And Jah does not create swords of metal to kill, the swords of fire were lava rivers circling around after the wind or volcano explosion pushed them out. Moses is confused because he describes the river Pishon as the one across Arabia from west Red sea to east mouth; a river destroyed by the 1514bc plagues of the comet impact on record in China and Maya who came from Harappa India. Like i said you want depth, contact me. Armageddon is here exalting the temple 144,000 and destroying the watchtower for her sins. The 9 cannot rule 7000 younger brothers of heaven /actually 6991; and the 137,000 in heaven say so. Want to know what Popes will say when resurrected on Earth (?) the same as any GB who doesnt wake up in heaven, and so get questioned by the other sheep just as Judas will.

Does it ever mess you up that when you think about how Christianity works you realize that God is punishing all of us because people who didn't even know that good and bad existed yet ate an apple? Don't don't even think maybe the knowledge of good and bad exist would be necessary before you could punish every single descendant? LOL

Agreed! I've often thought of that. In addition, they had zero social skills, no concept of humanity outside of only two of them, no concept of death as a punishment, and no concept of labor pangs as a punishment. That the account was written by men is so obvious.

Constantly. For decades. I try to be balanced for any believing Christians listening in....there are many, many problems in this concept.... most of which point directly at God's character.

it's hard to buy into the "the apple incident" when you read this. Ezekiel 18:20 The soul who sins is the one who will die. A son will bear no guilt because of the error of his father, and a father will bear no guilt because of the error of his son. The righteousness of the righteous one will be accounted to him alone, and the wickedness of the wicked one will be accounted to him alone. 🤔

​@@yenbbc8840 Ezekiel 18.20 is talking about SOULS. JESUS differentiates between BODIES and SOULS in Matthew 10 . 28 . Thru Adam and Eve , then , Our physical body may die , But not necessarily our soul. The SOULS of Saints are seen. In Heaven in Revelation 6 .9 .

Hi, I enjoy your videos but your biblical knowledge is a little immature. Maybe that come from being taught by people who dont know the Bible. The snake in the Garden of Eden is not satan. The texts never identifies it with satan, rather it is one of the beasts of the field that God made.
