Lost Cultures: Living Legacies
On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

For over a century, the Watchtower has kept followers focused on this limited number, creating pressure, confusion, and division. With the memorial season bringing in record numbers and a heavy push to recruit old contacts, it’s time to call it what it is: a number game that’s gone too far.

Send us a text Paranoia isn’t just a passing fear—it’s a powerful tool used to control people. In this episode, we’re diving deep into how paranoia is woven into the teachings of Jehovah’s Witnesses and the lasting psychological impact it has on members. Jehovah’s Witnesses are taught to fear the outside world, believe that Satan is lurking behind every corner, and view former members as dangerous. This constant state of fear isolates them from society and keeps them loyal to the organization. But here’s the good news—paranoia is learned, and it can be unlearned. Join me, Lady Cee, as we break down: 🔹 What paranoia really is 🔹 How Jehovah’s Witness teachings foster a culture of fear 🔹 The emotional and psychological toll on members 🔹 Steps to break free from paranoia and reclaim your trust in the world If you’ve ever struggled with fear and mistrust after leaving a high-control group, you’re not alone.

Jehovah’s Witnesses have a long history of failed predictions—Armageddon in 1914, then 1925, then 1975, then “the generation that will not pass.” But instead of admitting they were wrong; they just keep moving the goalposts. And now? Many Jehovah’s Witnesses justify it by saying, "Well, it was the closest thing to the truth. But is close good enough? In Hidden Figures, astronaut John Glenn refused to launch until he had the exact number—because his life depended on it. Yet the Watchtower has convinced millions to quit their jobs, avoid college, and never save for retirement based on wrong calculations.

1 Jehovah's Witnesses, We Have a Deficit - Where's My Money? 15:27
15:27 나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요15:27
나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요Send us a text In this video JT focuses on his personal experience with the the financial aspects of Jehovah's Witnesses' circuit assemblies and regional conventions. JT also discusses the lack of transparency in the organization's financial dealings, particularly at higher levels. Key Points: 1. **Always in the Red**: JT mentions that circuit assemblies always seem to be running a deficit, something he questioned even as a child. He didn't understand why until he became an elder and was responsible for circuit assembly accounts. 2. **Per Publisher Rate**: The organization charges a "per publisher rate" for every circuit assembly, guaranteeing a certain amount of money will be generated. For example, if the rate is $10 per publisher and there are 1,000 publishers, the assembly starts $10,000 in the red. 3. **Lack of Transparency**: While local Kingdom Halls and circuit assemblies provide detailed accounts of their finances, this transparency is not extended to district or regional conventions. The organization has never disclosed how much money is collected at these larger events. 4. **Accounting Practices**: At the local level, two people are required to count and sign off on the money collected, adhering to good accounting practices. However, this level of scrutiny is not applied at higher organizational levels. 5. **Money Makers**: JT points out that these assemblies and conventions are significant moneymakers for the organization. Despite this, there's no clear accounting provided to the general membership about where this money goes or how it's used. 6. **Personal Experience**: JT shares anecdotes from his time as an elder, including the pressure to meet financial targets and the lack of questioning among the elders about keeping some money in the account for future needs. 7. **Change in Policy**: Due to instances of "borrowing" (essentially stealing), the organization changed its policy to require two people to count and sign off on any money collected, even at the smaller book study level. The video aims to encourage critical thinking about the financial aspects of being a Jehovah's Witness, questioning the lack of transparency and accountability in the organization's handling of funds.

Unfortunately, the advice given by the elders in the congregation left him feeling helpless and hopeless when they begin encouraging him to regular pioneer. After taking the advice of the elders, Ryan chose to regular pioneer but quickly realized that he was unable to pay his bills. He was just struggling to survive. Fortunately, Ryan woke up and began to reexamine his situation. Perhaps you have had a similar experience where you gave up dreams, goals and aspirations to please the brothers in your local congregation.

That's right they are celebrity Jehovah's Witnesses. And now we have Serena Williams! For many years people ask the question is Serena Williams one of Jehovah's Witnesses because at the end of each game she would often make the statement "I have to thank Jehovah God", so people would ask the question, is she one of Jehovah's Witnesses? And today, we have the answer. She's a dedicated baptized Jehovah's Witness. You know there are people who will often look and say I can't believe that she became a Jehovah's Witness. Well, it's important to keep in mind what it's like to be raised as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. All your life you're told whenever you have a problem, whenever things are going bad in your life, whenever you get yourself together, return to Jehovah. And today, Serena Williams has retired from her career. She's married she has a child, and it often causes people to reflect differently on their lives. One of the things that we know that she probably didn't do, is take the time to do the research that we encourage everybody to do. We have found that many people leave the Jehovah’s Witness organization and will be gone for years and sometimes decades. They fail to take the time to ask critical thinking questions about what they learned about this religion. Instead, they simply come right back to the religion without asking questions without doing their own personal research. As a result, there are so many things that they fail to understand about the religion that impacted their life in every aspect of it. You know there’s something interesting that happens for people who are celebrity Jehovah’s Witnesses things that a regular Jehovah's Witness if they were to do would get them in a lot of trouble well as a celebrity witness is often overlooked.

Send us a text n this video, we will discuss Jehovah’s Witnesses and cart witnessing and how they believe that this is one of the best career choices you can make. Because the Witnesses believe that the world is soon to end, there is no need to spend any time pursuing a career in endless pursuits. Instead, they believe that trying to convert others to learn the truth as outlined by their religion is what God wants them to do. You will learn how the Watchtower leadership misappropriates the term career by insinuating that if their members take up the task of cart witnessing, it somehow equates into a meaningful career choice. https://www.npr.org/2017/02/19/510585965/poor-education-leads-to-lost-dreams-and-low-income-for-many-jehovahs-witnesses Please consider supporting our work on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/exjwcriticalthinker Check out our videos on why we left the Why We Left the Jehovah's Witnesses https://youtu.be/rqYUCV4FHI4 https://youtu.be/bLaSB9P2MEE Visit us on the Web at http://www.exjwcriticalthinker.com Support the show…

It is interesting meeting so many devoted persons, seeking to find the truth and live genuine lives. Harriet is one such individual. You will enjoy learning about her experience as she states how she got caught up with the Jehovah's Witnesses and their love bombing, thinking she was joining a group that had good integrity, love and concern all to find out it was superficial. She leaves the organization without reservation and 43 years later returns to the group thinking they have made major changes. All to discover that it's a different time period but the same ole tactics packaged in a different box. You've got to hear her story as she relates information about losing her child, and writing about her personal experiences to assist and comfort others.

Send us a text 00;00;20;07 - 00;01;00;13 Speaker 1 The patient was diagnosed by a psychiatrist as a paranoid schizophrenic after ten years, he was pronounced incurable and was able to stay out of the mental institution only by taking three pills every day. And then one of Jehovah's Witnesses calling from house to house managed to start a Bible study with him. After eight months, the man needed no more pills, and four months later he was pronounced fully cured. 00;01;00;18 - 00;01;39;00 Then there was the woman in Michigan who for many years had received regular psychotherapy shock treatments and had spent $5,000 on drug treatment. Yet she still kept threatening suicide. After studying the Bible with Jehovah's Witnesses, she was able to discontinue taking drugs as well as quit smoking. She found her psychiatrist to tell him that now she felt better than she had ever felt before, and what accounted for it? He replied that he wished all of his patients could find a cure like that. 00;01;46;04 - 00;02;23;16 The two experiences that you just heard, they came from the April 22nd, 1975, a week magazine. These types of articles form the foundation and the basis for the type of culture that exists among Jehovah's Witnesses. For decades, and that is people who are struggling with mental health issues. It is because you are spiritually weak. And so by citing examples of someone who had an incurable situation in their life with schizophrenia, that by reading our magazines they were cured. These types of articles were used by elders, circuit overseers and speakers all around the world to tell the Jehovah's Witnesses just read our magazines and your problems will be fixed. 00;02;38;28 - 00;03;07;19 Hi, this is Lady Cee. Welcome to the critical thought. In the upcoming episode, we're going to be talking about Jehovah's Witnesses and mental health awareness. In fact, we have a series of videos that we're going to be covering under this umbrella, talking about mental health awareness, because a lot of people, they may be experiencing these issues in their lives, but they don't realize it. And we also teamed up with a mental health professional who is going to weigh in on this matter. 00;03;17;03 - 00;03;40;25 There is still a stigma when it comes to mental health. Individuals perceive mental health as, you know, that something is wrong with me. You know, I'm flawed. Know there's a deficit. I think we are addressing that stigma by taking more of a strength based approach to addressing mental health. Not what's wrong with you, but what's right about you. Maybe. Maybe we've forgotten what was right about me. Through whatever circumstances. Of situations that. I've I've gone into in my life. In the mind is interesting. We can get so focused on that algorithm of negativity, too, where we only see what we believe and then. 00;04;11;07 - 00;04;23;06 Hi, I'm Daniel. I am JT and the purpose of this video is to speak to you about how the Watchtower creates mental health issues for its members. Okay, JT, let's start. 00;04;23;09 - 00;04;32;11 Speaker 2 Yeah, that is something that you will find in this religion is the mental health concerns that people will end up finding themselves dealing with. 00;04;33;00 - 00;04;52;06 Speaker 3 Mm hmm. Well, a few weeks ago, we released a video, and we made the point that the Watchtower, the governing body, the witnesses and the society as a whole basically were the modern day Pharisees, but they were the modern day Pharisees because they were creating manmade mandates. Do you remember. Support the show…
