1:10:14Now PlayingThe Jehovah's Witnesses have millions of members and are well-known for their door-to-door solicitation and distribution of materials, such as their Watchtower and Awake! magazines. However, most people do not realize the authoritarian BITE Model policies that affect their believers. Former elder Isaac Carmignani, a friend and colleague, shares the critically important facts about the Jehovah's Witnesses. Did you know they have prophesied at least 4 times that Armageddon would occur in a particular year? Or that Bible scholars say their version is wrong? Or that they practice corporal punishment? Prohibit blood transfusions? Shun former members? Or that they have had a huge pedophile problem for many decades? They are very nice, hard-working people, but involvement in this group has caused much suffering and harm worldwide.
Are you a JW, questioning JW, or exJW, or even just curious about the organization? Although our course, the Recovery After Mormonism Workshop, with Dr. Steven Hassan and Dr. John Dehlin, is about the LatterDay Saints, those familiar with the inner workings of the Watchtower will find much of the material and the patterns of control hauntingly familiar, and, more importantly, the advice given is applicable and useful to survivors of the Jehovah's Witnesses.
