Application of warnings or bans will be subject to moderator discretion. Feel free to appeal. If changes to the guidelines are necessary, they will be adjusted.


If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a group that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of any other group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you you will be banned on sight.

Provable means able to provide proof to the moderation, and, if necessary, to the community.

JW also, all the open spots for heaven have already been assigned. Everyone's going to hell.

I love the idea that God wants to welcome someone to heaven, they deserve it, they've been a good person all their lives, but...
Whoops, sorry, we're overbooked. Looks like it's eternal damnation for you, what a bummer!

I heard the JW’s had to hotpatch their lore. Now they just say that there are 144k leaders/elite who will be in charge of the others who get saved. The church membership got too big and the tithing, I’m guessing, was too nice to tell people they’re outta luck.

Not their first version update with breaking changes.
Originally they claimed WW1 was the biblical end of the world.

They've claimed to know when the end of the world is coming multiple times.

And after each date came and went uneventfully, they have become increasingly quiet about those predictions.

In retrospect, letting us reproduce past 144,000 individuals was probably not the best idea
