I've just been told to place my grandmothers old camera in the shed. My JW mother gave it to me, but now she seems to think it could be demonized(uh huh). She has just come back from an assembly(big surprise).
After finally escaping (born into,not baptized) from JW's it sickens me to think of all those JW kids not getting any sleep. They are told that demons are REAL! and are looking to attack "weak ones".
Even worse that Jehovah(God) may take away his protection if they sin and are unrepentant!
I have two nephews and a niece that are in the "truth".
Enough of this crap!

Jehovah's Witnesses are not "paranoid about demons", and in fact are probably the group best-prepared to deal with those struggling from demonism.

You are probably going through a very tough time right now. Have you been disfellowshiped? Contact me if you want to talk. I'm not an ex-JW, but I have some experience here.
But to answer your question... I think they're taking things too far. They think that objects can be demon possessed. That's very strange, I think.

JW is banned is several countries because it is a cult. You warp people's minds so they don't even want to visit their families. JW takes all joy out of life, including holidays, family, etc.
Oddly, JW encourages you to be poor and unsuccessful. What a bunch of loosers.
The reason you seek to convert others is to mask your own doubts of your beliefs. The reason you can't get out of JW is because your "friends" will disown you. That's a cult.

I praise you for being able to see that religion is downright ridiculous. They're paranoid because that is how they were raised by their parents. You either have faith or you don't.

OK. *POOF* No more freedom of religion! Everybody believes that our ancestors were fish!
Thanks!
