@RaleighFrance Because snake oil salesmen rarely ever mean the things they say. They're just very good at telling people what they want to hear.

Don’t imagine this means shunning is going away anytime soon, as this talk was just released on JW org where Ralph Walls says the suggestion of staying in touch with a disfellowshipped relative is an example of “independent thinking” (=BAD).

In a move we could all see coming, Jehovah's Witnesses have removed their most infamous shunning instructional video from their website. Originally from the 2016 "Remain Loyal to Jehovah!" convention, the video was later released under the title "Loyally Uphold Jehovah’s Judgments​—Shun Unrepentant Wrongdoers". It has been reviewed at midweek meetings and featured heavily in critical media and documentaries and even served as official evidence of JWs harmful shunning practices in courts around the world. Most notably in the January 2024 trial in Norway. Here is the page for the video captured on October 8th 2024. The video can be played and downloaded from that page. #en/mediaitems/VODBiblePrinciples/pub-jwbcov_201605_3_VIDEO" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">web.archive.org/web/2024100813… The link on JW's website is now dead and has been removed from articles referencing it as shown in the current web page for the September 2017 Meeting Workbook. In the WOL version, the link now redirects to the homepage. wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp… This follows the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses announcement in March 2024 of changes to dealing with "Unrepentant Wrongdoers" including dropping the terms "disfellowshipping" in favor of "removed", and "judicial committee" to "committee of elders". Also announced were changes to how minors are now less likely to face a committee and simple greetings could be said to "removed" JWs at meetings or to invite them to a meeting. Previously in May 2023 2 new shunning instructional videos for that summers convention were removed after the first weekend of conventions. An emergency memo was sent to remove the videos from the program going forward. x.com/Ron_POMO/statu… Those videos along with PID media statements shown in a UK documentary the week of those first conventions can bee seen in this video youtube.com/watch?v=OgN6Rc… reddit.com/r/exjw/comment… Lets not forget Anthony Morris's last appearance in a GB update video. Down the memory hole it all goes. x.com/Ron_POMO/statu…

Jehovah's Witnesses are told to accept everything the Governing Body says without question, even if it does not make sense from a human standpoint. This would indicate that they have direct communication with a higher power, however, the GB has stated they are not infallible.

@ThyreonPisteos I assume (please correct me if I'm wrong) that you're referring to the resurrection of Jesus. Is the evidence for this event extraordinary? 🤔

@Jexit_2020 Christianity hinges on a historical event for which there is more and better evidence than any other ancient historical event. But it's impossible to prove anything to someone who denies or circumvents all evidence.

“Trusting Jehovah includes trusting his representatives”. Be ready to obey ANY instructions they provide. (I mean. What could go wrong?!)

In the October JW Broadcasting GB helper Troy Snyder tells #JW to not be shaken when they hear “lies” about Jehovah, his organization, and the faithful and discreet slave (the GB). Remain obedient and responsive, even when it doesn’t seem practical from a human standpoint.
