Reply to comment by The_Brick_Is_Parrot in Why don't Jehovah's Witnesses celebrate Halloween? by crispilly

I love how casual you make this all sound. Oh yes, we don’t celebrate because we think they’re demonic. Why not spell it out, you all don’t believe in having relationships with outsiders because you think the entire world order is demonic, literally controlled by Satan. You all shun family members as an organization to emotionally blackmail them if they decide to leave while at the same time minimizing abuse of all kinds to preserve your so called ‘name’. If you’re a Jehovah’s Witness on Reddit you’re only purpose here is PR. The fact that you’re still a JW ‘after seeing crazy things’ is exactly the mindset that they encourage. Blind obedience, for Jesus said, be like sheep. Fuck Jehovah’s Witnesses. After being raised in it I lost my entire family and everything I knew at 19 because I decided to leave. My entire family and community shunned me and I had to rebuild everything on my own. To this day, 20 years later it’s as if they were dead. While living just an hour from me. If I show up they won’t even open the door. I’ve known others in my situation take their life because they were shunned. Young people pushed out of their homes as a means to get them to come back. It’s atrocious and anyone trying to minimize its negative and pervasive impact can fuck right off.
