Surviving Paradise

As Jehovah's Witnesses celebrate recent changes to 'god's organization' why don't they put more thought to the millions of people who came before them and were obeying teachings that were, in the least, wrong... and at the most, designed lies. Does 'new light' in 2024 make up for decades of how 'old light' negatively impacted the lives of Witnesses in the past? Are the Governing Body hoping everyone forgets?

The Governing Body has been asserting control over Jehovah's Witnesses since installing the disfellowshipping arrangement in the 1950's. Losing their religious status... and millions of dollars in handouts in several countries, has led Jehovah to pull the emergency brake on his chariot and change direction. We take a closer look at the 2024 August Watchtower and the changes to marking, disfellowshipping, judicial meetings and more! What could go wrong?

We reach deep into the Jehovah's Witness historical grab bag to look at how Jesus' handpicked guy in New York voiced his tacit support for a certain German dictator's ideologies, as well as a closer look at the first man Adam's journey from lonely bachelor, surrounded by animals, to his first date with Eve. There are a few 'surprises!'

Move over Ironman, Deadpool and Storm... Jehovah's Witnesses have the REAL superheroes. The 2024 convention season is here... and the real, invisible superheroes hovering above each book cart are back in the spotlight! We look at the long history of the winged, white males that helped Noah gather two kangaroos and guided that new unbaptized publisher in placing their first Watchtower magazine!

The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses invite themselves into your bedroom by instructing grown, consenting adults how they can touch each other. Their teachings on sex range from hilarious, to soul crushing, by claiming an ancient book filled with sexual depravity should be our guide when our clothes come off. Touching yourself is off limits, even demonized. Listen in as we look at their love for missionary... not the kind with the book carts.

Jesus Christ of the Bible invited people to seek him out for refreshment. What do we find when we examine the lifestyle of a Jehovah's Witness? Less stress? We take a look at the Governing Body's advice on managing stress... and how it impacts those inside Jesus' 'organization.'

The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses are the most 'honest' men in all the universe, just ask them. This week they produced an article entitled "Is Truth Important Anymore?" Taking a brief look at their history, should they be commenting on 'truth?' What do we find when we examine the organization they call 'the Truth?'

Do you love someone trapped inside ‘the truth?’ With all the recent changes inside Jehovah’s Witnesses, many wonder why they can’t see the obvious: the ‘organization’ is a man-made cult. The answers are complex. We explore several reasons why good people can’t see what is being done to them… and how we can help.

In a recent 'dramatic Bible reading,' on Jesus' website, the Governing Body is reminding world governments that Revelation is all about them... and that they're on notice! Despite 110 armed conflicts happening on earth today, world leaders are most concerned with nine guys in upstate New York, their book carts and their inauguration as kings. It's all in full color!

In Governing Body Update #3 Jesus directs his guys in New York to clarify his recent fashion changes... because the ‘Great Teacher’ has been struggling with clear communication lately. Not to be outdone, a Governing Body helper reminds Jehovah’s Witnesses that they are all ‘sheep’… without putting any thought to how a sheep’s story ends… or uh, did he?
