This is a cult.
I was born into this organization and have experienced anxiety and depression as well as PTSD from being raised within it. All of my friends experienced the same. It’s a harmful doomsday cult that entices vulnerable people in by giving them the false hope of living forever on paradise. I am fine if someone wants to believe this, but their hateful views on LGBTQIA+ people, their teaching that everyone you know who isn’t a witness will die in Armageddon, their standard of shunning once you leave or do something “wrong” and get disfellowshipped… these are actively doing HARM on real people. Thousands will never speak to their family members again because they have been slowly molded into this group and conditioned not to ask questions, look outward for any other information, and to disregard anything speaking negatively about them as “apostate material”. 0 stars.
