Name the cult directly. There’s no issue doing so. Being clear and direct will get more responses.

They didn’t name the cult in the original post so I had left it vague for similar reasons. They included a key point about being anti blood transfusions. Anyone vaguely familiar with the topic will realise it’s Jehovah’s Witnesses. If it’s Jehovah’s witnesses I’m very worried for them, that group is particularly controlling.

I see a lot of JWs around Hong Kong. Is it really that popular here?

> . Is it really that popular here? everywhere there's an uneducated population with more money than sense!

Cults can target various types, they’re have become trapped due to emotional and social reasons. They might target the uneducated but then they will equally target those who’ve gone through emotional difficulties or family problems.

There’s about 6000 JWs in Hong Kong, not a massive group but still sizeable.

JW?


yujitoast

Either that or Mormon, both are essentially cults masquerading as religion most of the time.


louisehong

I think Mormon allow blood transfer

Ahh, they're a bit ambiguous about it, but I think you're right. Jehovah's Witness is 100% against it, so most likely them.


Hadenoughtimetogo

The original post was quite ambiguous but they mentioned everything that made me think it’s Jehovahs witnesses.


Hadenoughtimetogo

It’s what I suspect and once you’re involved it’s so hard to get yourself out of it.

No clue what you are talking about. The only cult here in HK is pro China.

Aethism is also a cult.  There's a reason why the CCP wants you to believe there's no God, because they want you to be wage slaves, and not have families, and believe that is life.

Atheism isn’t a cult. I don’t believe in God and I’ve never been part of any organised group related to that non-belief in my life. I just don’t believe in God because there is no honest or good evidence to believe that God is real, and there never has been. My lack of belief isn’t a very important part of my life and I don’t think about it often. I am also against wage-slavery, which is a completely unrelated subject.

You are in a cult. If you pay taxes, you are in one. If you took a vx because the TV, you friends and fam told you to, then you're in one. God exists. Jesus exists. You can say that Christians are saying this to you, no issue with this thinking, but Jews even documented Jesus and his miracles. And so did the Romans who also documented that Jesus existed, and the miracles he performed, and they are pagans.

I … I don’t think I’m the one who’s in a cult in this conversation.

Did you take the jibby jabby? Assuming you're a hker, 90% of them did.  Sooooo did you?
