The Witnesses

Firstly. Ignore RobMurphy review, he is probably a JW. Google the Australian Commision into JWs. Nobody really cares about the JWs. It's generally ex JWs who have seen the religion for what it is or have been abused that have an axe to grind. Others don't give a toss about them. If you want in depth look into the religion check out John Cedars on YouTube, an excellent source. Do what you want but don't cover up or fail to report child abuse, which it has been proved time and time again they do.

They have the two witness rule and now (only just changed) they will report it if required by law, for example I think in the UK you do not need to report by law or at least in a lot of states in The US.

Personally it is an appalling religion, notbthe people but the organisation at the highest levels teaching nonesense, controlling members, shunning, children dying due to refusing blood donations and applauded for doing so.

Within 10 minutes you will know this is not just apostate propaganda. They did their research and have a good understanding of how the organization works and the people coming forward do not have far fetched stories. Going out in field service alone with an older brother, and staying over other couples houses was a common thing. While witnesses will say that this stuff is everywhere and that this doesn't prove this is not Jehovah's organization, what is wrong is how the society handles it.

Being a former cult of the Jehovah's Witnesses member for over 35 years, I can tell you from experience being a former elder that this is all true. No Nazi party member has ever been more dedicated to a leader than a JW is to the head of the cult in Wallkill NY. I have seen and been part of many coverups over the years. I left after being in the cult for over 35 years and a 4th generation cult member. It is destructive and will destroy you one way or another. I have family members who live on social security alone because they quit their job at General Motors in the 1970s early when the cult said stay alive till 75 and told us to sell homes and put our full time in the preaching work because the end was soon very soon. I still have the Watchtower bound volume from the late 60s that said not to go to college or even worry about school because this system would not last long enough to use any education or in some cases of attorney law degs or doctors degs in medical would we be able to even finish school, it was that close. They lied to their members ever since CT Russell and his adultery and scams like the miracle wheat. Anyone who is even thinking about this cult should do an extensive google search on the cult. It will scare the crap out of you.

A well done and well executed documentary. Reasoned, well researched, and presented in a logical and clear manner. I image there will be a lot of push-back by the cult members, so I applaud the the victims for their bravery and thank the filmmakers for exposing this tragedy.

It is absolutely nauseating to see the pedophiles are being protected by this cult because they feel that they are above the law. I hope this issue continues to come to light and more lawsuits are filed until Jehovah's Witnesses apologize, change their policies and compensate the victims.

Everyone involved in this project of showing what really is going on within this religion did an amazing job showing facts and the truth. I think this week will be marked in history as the moment the cracks became so big, even the governing body can't lie anymore. Trey Bundy- kudos to you and your staff. Amazing
