A former Jehovah’s Witness has lifted the lid on the brutal isolation he faced as a child after being cut off from the world.
Owen Morgan, originally from Connecticut, appeared on a recent episode of the Cults To Consciousness podcast.
He described his experience as ‘oppressive’ and ‘destructive’ as part of a religion that ‘ruined people’s lives.’
Owen even went one step further in his expose as he claimed kids within the religion were regularly shunned by their own families and thrown out of their homes if they ‘stop believing.’
Owen, who was born into the religion, told host Shelise Ann Sola: ‘Jehovah’s Witnesses very much attempt to separate their members from everybody else because of one Bible verse that says you should live in the world but not be a part of it.
‘So, of course, they take that opportunity to interpret that in the most extreme way imaginable and try to separate their members any way they can.’
He continued: ‘When you’re little you don’t fully realize how negatively this is affecting you.
‘You don’t really realize it until after you exit and you see the world for what it is, you see what other people are doing and realize that you’re missing out on a lot – not just missing out on fun but missing out on a piece of culture that you live in.’
