WATCHTOWER GETS EVEN WORSE IN 2012 ABOUT
MENTALLY UNBALANCED EXTEMIST SHUNNING
The April 2012
Watchtower magazine issue for JWs only (not the friendlier seeming version given the general public) in a study article
says on page 12, paragraph 17: “Consider just one example of the good that can come when a
family loyally upholds Jehovah’s decree not to associate with disfellowshipped relatives. A young man had been disfellowshipped
for over ten years, during which time his father, mother, and four brothers “quit mixing in company” with him.
At times he tried to involve himself in their activities, but to their credit, each member of the family was steadfast in
not having any contact with him. After he was reinstated, he said that he always missed the association with his family, especially
at night when he was alone. But, he admitted, had the family associated with him even a little, that small dose would have
satisfied him. However, because he did not receive even the slightest communication from any of his family, the burning desire
to be with them became one motivating factor in his restoring his relationship with Jehovah. Think of that if you are ever
tempted to violate God’s command not to associate with your disfellowshipped relatives.”The clear-cut message
or warning to JWs is to put the organization over family, and also use shunning to try to force people to go running back
into the Watchtower organization. If you ever feel compelled to do so, then make the most of it by
going in, getting all the names and addresses of active JWs and then mailing then an informational letter about Watchtower
misdoings with the suggestion the readers stop giving Watchtower free time, money and energy. That way
Watchtower will be wishing they never had set up and used this unChristian extremist misconduct.
