The Mental Health of Jehovah's Witnesses

The function of religion in human society is complex. The part played by religion in psychiatric disorders is even more obscure. Previous literature and theories are divided into two groups: one school believes that intense religiosity is a symptom-complex indicative of psychiatric disorder, while the opposing view is that religious belief in some way acts as a defence mechanism protecting the individual and his psyche.

The present study of 50 Jehovah's Witnesses admitted to the Mental Health Service facilities of Western Australia suggests that members of this section of the community are more likely to be admitted to a psychiatric hospital than the general population. Furthermore, followers of the sect are three times more likely to be diagnosed as suffering from schizophrenia and nearly four times more likely from paranoid schizophrenia than the rest of the population at risk.

These findings suggest that being a member of the Jehovah's Witnesses faith may be a risk factor predisposing to a schizophrenic illness. Further studies would be interesting in investigating whether pre-psychotic people are more likely to join the sect than normal people and what part (if any) membership has in bringing about such a breakdown.

all of these scriptures also appy to the so called Jehovah's witnesses:

2 Corinthians 11:13
For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ.

1 John 4:1
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

2 Peter 2:1
But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you,

John 8:44
You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

Matthew 7:15
Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.

Titus 1:16
They profess to know God, but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work.

2 Timothy 3:13
While evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.

Matthew 7:15-20
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. ...

1 John 4:1
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Matthew 15:8
This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me;

^^ false jw's hearts are with each other

truly most dum one, matthew is not talking there of false jw's paranoid liars and blasphemers etc.,
you are habitually confused:

vinnie said: "You Guys are PASSIVE and DULL these days"
and your reply was: "You're really intoxicated with envy"

you people cannot ever stop lying, can you, you are of the devil:
Joh 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, that is his natural way of speaking, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

1Jn 4:1  Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 

the so called Jehovah's witnesses spirit has been tested over and over again in these forums
and over and over again they show themselves to be habitual liars, they cannot stop lying,
they have the lying spirit of the devil

yes many false prophets have gone out into the world

no other group of people lie repeatedly as the so called Jehovah's witnesses do
and of course habitual lying is a sign that they are not of God but in fact of the devil, john 8:44

false jw's:

Joh 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, that is his natural way of speaking, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

Mat 7:16  "You will know them by their fruits.

^^ you will know them by their fruits; Christians stop lying or at least are working at it < good fruits
so called Jehovah's witnesses are the opposite, they are of their father the devil, lying like hell < rotten fruits

you mockers are so dum aren't you


and post my acting/laughing like a hyena, and post the lies that you say i peddle, oh liar and false accuser like your father the devil

you false jw's can never stop lying of course:

Joh 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, that is his natural way of speaking, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

Rev_12:10  Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, he who accuses them before our God day and night.

Rev_20:15  And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire

Christ Jesus is the only means of salvation so if you don't associate with his team in preaching zealously and industriously teaching about the Kingdom of God i pity you!

lost false jw mad max

truly, liars, the paranoid, blasphemers, etc. are not His (Christ Jesus) team

Joh 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, that is his natural way of speaking, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

MaxInDHouse:
The Beroeans love pure worship and they're willing to do whatever it takes to continue with the God of Israel so when the Apostles (Jews) approached them using the scriptures they listened but due to skepticism they went back to make their own research to know if all what the Apostles and disciples of Christ Jesus said about Jesus being the Christ! Act 17:11
So they never gave up on pure worship so it's difficult for anyone who refuse to associate with an organized religion to claim he or she is like the Beroeans!

lost false jw mad max

there is nothing pure about; lying, paranoia, blasphemy, etc.
you do forever fool yourself

Joh 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, that is his natural way of speaking, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
