It is my pleasure to give you a warm welcome to JWWatch.org. This website has been launched to give voice to millions of Jehovah’s Witnesses around the world who would not normally have the opportunity to say what they really think about the Watch Tower Society, or the teachings and practices of the Governing Body.
If you are a Jehovah’s Witness, or a former Witness, you will be aware that the opinions of rank and file publishers (and even elders) are rarely sought by the Society. The small number of men making up the Governing Body have declared themselves the “faithful and discreet slave” of Matthew 24:45, thus claiming sole control over the organization’s teachings and policies. These men are most certainly NOT interested in the opinions of the “silent majority” of Witnesses under their authority. If they are, they have a strange way of showing it!
This website historically sought to redress that balance by means of an annual survey that was conducted anonymously throughout the world. The first survey was taken in 2011, and immediately attracted the opinions of 1,118 voters before closing at the end of the year. The results were posted to the Governing Body for their attention and review but, predictably, they never replied.
The following year, 2012, the survey received votes from 1,488 current and former Witnesses, most of whom expressed their concern at various Watchtower teachings. The remarkable events of that year (the Candace Conti case and the “new light” about the faithful slave) certainly seemed to get people talking.
Subsequent surveys have allowed in excess of 6,000 per year to express their true feelings about the organization and its leadership, and we are optimistic this number will only increase as JWsurvey grows in popularity.
As we move into 2021, JW Survey has become JW Watch. The John Cedars YouTube Channel has become the Lloyd Evans Channel.
These changes represent where we are as a unified team, dedicated to accurate, non-sensational news about the activities of Jehovah’s Witnesses and their leadership. You will see content that represents investigative reporting, documentary, and occasionally opinions about the state of affairs of more than 8 million members of the Witness faith.
A website for all
This website has been created and made available as a free resource so that anyone, whether they are a former or current Witness, or in some way associated with Witness friends or relatives, can give their honest opinions about Watchtower and the increasingly cult-like direction in which it is headed.
We adopt a strictly non-religious viewpoint, meaning we refuse to promote any belief structure in particular. For this reason, we cannot be accused of trying to “draw off followers.” We are merely interested in garnering the views of ordinary Witnesses and reporting on the facts.
The Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses has not authorized or sponsored the survey, and it is run entirely without any influence or input from them. However, we genuinely feel that the brothers who serve on the Governing Body, having assumed such overwhelming responsibility, should take note of how ordinary Witnesses and the general public feel about their leadership, since millions of lives are affected by decisions they make at their private weekly meetings.
Who started this website?
My name is Lloyd Evans, and I am the founder of this website. I set it up in October 2011 with the help of a fellow activist while I was still one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, writing under the pseudonym “John Cedars.” Eventually, I left the organization for conscientious reasons. You can read my story on this link.
I first had the idea to begin gathering the opinions of Jehovah’s Witnesses and their associates around the world because of a variety of issues that continue to be of real concern to me. I believe that ordinary Witnesses who devote their entire lives to loyally serving Jehovah, through what purports to be God’s spirit-directed organization, should have some say in the decisions that are made on their behalf.
It is my belief that not all is well within the organization. I don’t consider many of the teachings and practices encouraged by the Governing Body to have been formulated with the best interests of ordinary Witnesses at heart.
An unmerciful practice
For example, take the practice of shunning or “disfellowshipping.” The Apostle Paul’s words to the Corinthian congregation were as follows:
Clearly the Apostle Paul was delivering this admonition for the purpose of keeping the congregation clean. But to what extent should these words be applied? By saying “not even eating with such a man,” Paul indicated that his words weren’t directed against family members (who would daily eat with one another), but against other brothers in the congregation with whom one might consider sharing a meal.
There is no reason to insist that the word “anyone” should be applied arbitrarily to “everyone,” irrespective of age or circumstances. Even Watchtower publications acknowledge that there should be some exceptions where family members are concerned. For example, a disfellowshipped husband is not to be shunned by his wife or children, and parents are not banned from speaking to their disfellowshipped children if they are not yet old enough to leave home.
But why should it end there?
Many share my opinion that there is scope to extend even more mercy in applying this scripture than is currently encouraged by the teachings of the Governing Body. Jesus said the following to the unrighteous pharisees:
Jesus identified mercy as playing a crucial role in the extent to which laws and principles should be enforced. Many do not think it is merciful that older teenagers, many of whom were baptized at an extremely young age (sometimes as young as 9), are forced out of their homes by their parents and then cruelly shunned, often for the rest of their lives, through a mistaken and abhorrent interpretation of the Apostle Paul’s advice.
The Society’s publications themselves warn that “no one should be forced to… choose between his beliefs and his family.” (July 2009 Awake!, p.9) However, they apply this reasoning to every religion but their own.
The scriptures clearly prescribe “shunning” purely as a measure for maintaining the spiritual cleanliness of the congregation, and not for the purpose of breaking up families. To go one step further and insist that shunning should also apply to families is both destructive and deeply unmerciful. It also violates the principle expressed by the Apostle Paul at 1 Timothy 5:8 where he said:
These and other teachings of the Governing Body are increasingly becoming a cause of sincere distress for many Witnesses who wish that the organization could adopt a more merciful and loving stance. In particular, one can now be disfellowshipped as an “apostate” merely for disagreeing with the Governing Body over this or other issues.
Only human
It is my sincere desire that by means of this website, and its annual surveys, the Governing Body will humbly consider the pleas of both myself and like-minded ones around the world who long for the Watch Tower Society to be a more loving organization – one that truly reflects the need for respect and tolerance toward other people’s beliefs.
The members of the Governing Body are only human, and no matter how much they may pray for wisdom and insight, they cannot possibly be fully aware of how their teachings and directives are impacting the lives of their fellow worshippers on a daily basis. That is what makes this survey website so important. It serves as a constant reminder for them to show greater kindness and mercy in undertaking the role that they have assumed as the faithful and discreet slave.
I would like to thank you in advance for your support for this site, and for getting involved in our important work.
Warmest regards,

Abbie Chatfield has shared a very telling throwback image
of herself and boyfriend Adam Hyde, six months before they went Instagram Official.
The veteran presenter, 29, and the Peking Duk frontman went public with their relationship in June.
However another racy photo, taken before they became a
couple, captured Abbie and Adam waiting patiently together in a fast food line, with the presenter
looking absolutely smitten over the strapping musician.
Abbie had a huge smile on her face in the adorable picture, as she
gazed intensely at Adam as they chatted while waiting to order.
She captioned the picture: ‘One year and two days
since this iconic photo of me being in love with Adam.
‘Before we ever even slept together LMAO. “Nah, I don’t have a crush on him anymore”.’
Abbie Chatfield has shared a very telling throwback image of her and her boyfriend
Adam Hyde, six months before they went Instagram Official.
Both pictured
The podcast host was braless in the image, and her low-slung skirt showed plenty of skin.
Shortly after they went public with their relationship, Abbie opened up about her sex life with her boyfriend in a candid and
wide-ranging chat on her It’s A Lot podcast.
She appeared on the bonus Ask Me Anything episode
with Adam, in which they discussed their budding romance.
As the new couple fielded questions about their bond, musician Adam cheekily boasted about
the couple’s sizzling chemistry.
It comes after Abbie revealed the sexual act she would never engage in with her boyfriend.
She recently opened up about the launch of her ‘kink kit’ sex toys and
admitted when it comes to bedroom fun, it’s strictly a two-person affair.
The veteran presenter, 29, whose relationship with the Peking Duk frontman went public in June, posted a loved-up image of them to Instagram from November last year. The photo captured Abbie and Adam waiting patiently together, with the presenter looking

‘I have a fantasy about seeing my partner
f*** someone else,’ she told News Corp.
‘But I think I know in my heart that I don’t actually want to see it.
I just want to talk about it like, that’s something that I find hot.
But in reality, would I want to see that? Probably
not.’
‘Whenever we get to a point where we’re like, “let’s have a threesome!”, I’m like, “I don’t actually know if I’m gonna want to see that”,’ she continued.

>Discovering Your Authentic Self
Before diving into alternative fashion trends, it’s important to take a moment
to explore who you truly are. Understanding yourself and what makes you unique is the
first step towards defining your style. Alternative fashion celebrates individuality,
encouraging you to embrace your quirks and passions. It’s about standing out and
being true to yourself.
Discovering your authentic self begins with a journey of self-discovery.
Take the time to reflect on your interests, values,
and personal aesthetics. Consider the activities that bring you joy, the music that moves you,
and the art that inspires you. These elements can all play a
role in shaping your unique style.
“Fashion is a way to say who you are without having to speak.” –
Rachel Zoe
Alternative fashion allows you to celebrate your individuality and
express yourself authentically. It’s not about following
the latest trends or conforming to societal expectations.
Instead, it’s about embracing your true self and wearing your personality proudly.
A key aspect of discovering your authentic style is
celebrating your individuality. What makes you different is what makes you special.
By embracing your quirks and unique qualities, you can develop a
style that is as unique as you are.
Defining Your Style
Once you have a clearer understanding of who you are,
it’s time to define your style. This involves exploring different fashion aesthetics, experimenting with various clothing pieces, and discovering what resonates with you.
Start by drawing inspiration from different
alternative fashion subcultures such as punk, goth, grunge,
bohemian, or indie. Research iconic figures within these subcultures and see how
they express themselves through their style.
Take note of the elements that resonate with you and incorporate them into your wardrobe.
Remember, defining your style is an ongoing process.
Allow yourself the freedom to explore and evolve as your tastes and interests change
over time. Your style should always be a reflection of your authentic self.
Celebrating Individuality through Fashion Choices
In alternative fashion, your clothing choices become
a powerful tool for self-expression. Each outfit you put together tells a story, conveying your personality, interests, and values without
uttering a word. Whether you opt for bold prints, unique textures, or unconventional silhouettes,
your fashion choices let your creativity shine.
“Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak.” – Rachel Zoe
Alternative fashion encourages you to think outside the box and break free
from conventional fashion rules. Experiment with mixing and matching different pieces, combining unexpected
patterns or textures, and creating visually stimulating outfits.
The key is to embrace your individuality and showcase your unique style.
Embracing the Journey of Self-Discovery
Self-discovery is an ongoing journey, and so is your fashion evolution. As you continue
to grow and evolve as a person, your style will naturally
change and adapt. Embrace this fluidity and allow your fashion choices
to reflect your personal growth.
Remember, the most important thing is to stay true
to yourself throughout the process. Celebrate your uniqueness, express yourself authentically, and let your alternative style be a reflection of the incredible individual that you are.
The Fashion Language
Alternative fashion is a language through which you can express yourself without words.
Your fashion choices communicate a story about your personality
and values. Whether you prefer combat boots, alternative joggers, or flowing
skirts, each outfit is an opportunity to let your creativity shine.
Alternative style encourages you to think outside the box and break
fashion rules.
Every fashion choice you make is like a brushstroke on the canvas
of your personal style. It’s a way to convey your unique perspective
to the world. The clothes you wear can be a powerful expression of who you are,
what you believe in, and what you stand for.
“Fashion is the armor to survive the reality of everyday life.”
– Bill Cunningham
With alternative fashion, you have the freedom to experiment, innovate, and let your personality
shine through. It’s about mixing and matching unexpected pieces,
juxtaposing different textures and patterns, and creating looks that
are truly one-of-a-kind.
Alternative fashion is not limited by societal norms or trends.
It allows you to embrace your individuality and showcase your unique perspective.
From gothic and punk to bohemian and vintage-inspired looks,
alternative style empowers you to be true to yourself.
Building Your Wardrobe
When it comes to alternative fashion, it’s not about filling
your closet with countless items. It’s about finding unique
pieces that truly speak to your individual style.
Quality over quantity is the key principle to keep in mind.
Investing in well-made garments not only ensures they look good, but they also stand the test of time.
To discover one-of-a-kind pieces that align with your alternative style,
try exploring thrift stores and vintage shops. These hidden gems are
treasure troves of clothing waiting to be found.
Thrifting is not only a sustainable way to shop,
but it also allows you to discover unique, pre-loved items that
perfectly fit your alternative fashion aesthetic.
You can stumble upon vintage band tees, statement jackets, and retro accessories that add a distinctive flair to your
wardrobe.
But why stop at thrifting alone? Upcycling is a creative
way to breathe new life into old pieces and make them truly your own. Whether
it’s turning a vintage dress into a skirt or adding
custom patches to a denim jacket, upcycling empowers you to express your creativity and showcase your
personal style.
Don’t be afraid to mix and match high-end pieces with budget-friendly finds.
Alternative fashion is all about self-expression, and there are no strict rules to follow.
Experiment with different textures, patterns, and styles to create unique looks that reflect your
individuality.
Advantages of Building a Quality Alternative Wardrobe
Long-lasting pieces that withstand the test of time
Unique finds that express your individual style
Sustainable shopping practices that reduce waste
Creative opportunities for upcycling and customization
Freedom to mix and match different styles and price points
By prioritizing quality over quantity, embracing thrifting and upcycling, and mixing and matching different pieces, you can build
a wardrobe that truly represents your alternative fashion identity.
Let your imagination run wild and create looks that make a statement.
Dealing with Critics
While alternative fashion allows you to express your unique style and personality, not
everyone will understand or appreciate it.
Handling criticism is an important aspect of staying
true to yourself and embracing your individuality.
Instead of letting the opinions of others define you, use these
moments as an opportunity to educate and enlighten.
“The greatest threat to our individuality is the pressure to conform.” – Unknown
When faced with confusion or judgment about your
alternative fashion choices, remember that there’s more
to style than meets the eye. Take the chance to educate
others about the different forms of self-expression and the diversity that should be
celebrated. Show them that alternative fashion is about breaking free from societal norms and celebrating personal creativity.
Emphasize that fashion is an art form, and just like any other art, it can vary
greatly from person to person.
Alternative fashion challenges the status quo and opens up
opportunities for self-discovery and exploration.
