If Jehovah's Witnesses Follow a God of Love; Why Do They Shun Family Members?
Mr. Prado said: "It is important to remember the importance of family, relationships, and humility. God is love."
As a former Jehovah's Witness, I couldn't agree with his statement more. A loving God would not expect a mother to shun her daughter for 25 years simply because she didn't want to be a Jehovah's Witness. I committed no sin and yet I have paid the price to have the same freedom that my mother was afforded (to change her religion from Methodist to Jehovah's Witness) the day Jehovah's Witnesses knocked on her door.
This Watchtower-imposed shunning has transcended and adversely affected more than one generation. Not only has my family shunned me, they don't know my 17 yr old son, and I have never met my sister's three kids (because she and my brother shun me as well). Mine is not an isolated incident. There are literally hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people being shunned because of their brief association with and exodus from the Watchtower/Jehovah Witness cult.
The Watchtower organization is responsible for family genocide. Buyer beware!

To even vocally question the teachings of the Watchtower will result in complete cutting off, with family and friends usually being forbidden to talk to them. The Watchtower is a truly Orwellian world.
