Not bad. But the guy doesn't seem to have all of his facts straight.
Then, during my second visit to the Jehovah's Witness meetings, when I asked my friend why the Jehovah's Witness movement held Jehovah at the head of their church and not Jesus, she explained that they believe Jesus was just a man and that he was not Godly as other people believe. On that reply, I asked her to look at the scripture in her Watchtower bible that states how God the Father asks us to hold Jesus Christ at the head of the church in order to be practicing Christianity. (Christ-ianity) (Ephesians 1:20-23) (20) "--- he raised him up from the dead ---" (22) "He also subjected "ALL" things under his feet, and made him head over all things to the congregation, (23) which is his body, the fullness of him" etc. When I showed her this scripture, she didn't even look at it but instead, made the comment that she would ask an elder later, and she never did. I later gave her another scripture and again she completely ignored it. (Colossians 1:18) "and he is the head of the body, the congregation."
Try these two scriptures out on a Jehovah's Witness and you will see for yourself that their mind is not capable of focussing and realising what these words mean. Ask any seasoned Jehovah's Witness to read these two scriptures from their own bible and "IF" you are able to actually get one to read them, you will very easily observe that their mind is incapable of focussing on it enough to understand that in this scripture God our Father is requesting us to hold His son at the head of our church. Holding Jesus at the head of the church is what denotes Christianity, which means, Watchtower has deceived Jehovah's Witnesses into "thinking" they are practicing Christianity, yet they are clearly not. (This makes me wonder if it is possible to also sue the Watchtower organisation for false advertising which leads to death, as the blood transfusion belief is not a Christian doctrine, yet Jehovah's Witnesses are programmed to believe it is a Christian doctrine.)
Since when do Witnesses not believe Jesus to be the head of the Church? Perhaps I had it wrong the whole time, but I thought no one reached Jehovah but though Jesus Christ.

The J-dubs have no need for Jesus. Its God the Holy Spirit and the FDS. If you go back to some of their watchtowers and Awakes it says that only the Jesus is the mediator for the Annointed. I am not good and cutting and pasting..but I am surre someone can show you that altough the society from the outside looks like Jesus is their head...he really isn't.

Well, I never picked that up. I was raised in and left at 18.
Hmmm... how is it then that the R&F are told to pray "In Jesus Christ's name, Amen" if only the anointed have him as the mediator?

- A therapist using hypnosis must make sure the person being hypnotised, is well-relaxed, because if the conscious mind is excited or hyperactive, hypnotic suggestions cannot get past conscious judgment and reasoning skills, into the unconscious mind to create a totally overpowering hypnotic state. Watchtower puts out a song book with over one hundred songs that have words and music which create a slow subliminal tone to relax the congregation. Not one song in this Watchtower song book, has an up-tempo beat like the songs sung in the Orthodox Church. Every song they play induces relaxation.
- After promoting relaxation, a therapist using hypnosis must get the person being hypnotised to focus on something that causes the eyes to repeatedly move from left to right, which prevents a part of the brain that deals with judgment and reasoning, the prefrontal cortex, from focusing on the hypnotic suggestions being spoken, to do it's job of rejecting anything being said which the person being hypnotised, doesn't agree with, or believe in. In other words, getting a person to relax and causing continuous left to right eye movement allows a therapist to bypass conscious judgment and reasoning skills in order to program that person's brain to become so manipulated that you can actually change the autonomic functions of the mind and body. It is so overpowering that it can block out the excruciating pain of a major surgical operation, stop the eyes from being able to see one particular number or word written on a piece of paper and even take away a person's love for life and will to live, sufficiently to cause them to commit suicide. (You cannot possibly do this with basic brainwashing techniques used, for example, by football coaches who have their team repeatedly chant their mission statement before each game and each training session, to become devoted to turning up to practice and to focus fully on winning when they play.)The way that Watchtower has created this left-to-right eye movement, is to have the compere standing in the centre of the stage reading one paragraph of the story from the study book and the narrator sitting off to one side, reading a bible verse after each paragraph. As the congregation watches, not only do their eyes continually move from left to right which stops them from listening and examining the words of the story to reject what they don't agree with, but if they are not watching, their ears will hear the words spoken by the compere on the right and the narrator on the left.
- A therapist using hypnosis must also design a story with at least four hypnotic suggestions in it, catering for our four main emotions of reasoning, and, that covers the belief that you want the unconscious mind to become conditioned to believing. To further support the story, it is also necessary to give socially accepted reasoning to the story intermittently as you deliver it to the person being hypnotised. (As a therapist, I used medical research results and other therapists often use basic survey results, but Watchtower simply uses bible scripture.) This procedure is so powerful over normal mind and body functions, that you can use it to have a person eat an extremely sour onion and truly believe they are eating a juicy peach, without that onion causing any tears or allowing the person to realise that they are biting into an onion. It is also so powerful that it can make a person refuse a blood transfusion if their life depends on it, or even worse, make parents stop medical doctors from giving their young child a blood transfusion, when his/her life depends on it, thus causing death to their own child. This is the ultimate form of hypnotic mental takeover and the leaders of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society have applied it to their study procedures, in an extremely effective manner. The leaders of Watchtower have designed their study stories to have the four hypnotic suggestions within the story they want their Jehovah's Witness followers to believe in and have added bible scriptures after one or two paragraphs, in order to give the compere and the narrator their job to do to create left and right eye and hearing movement to produce the hypnotic effect. These study stories are so important to Watchtower to establish a hypnotic effect in all Jehovah's Witnesses worldwide, that they insist to all the leaders of each individual congregation centre in every country, that they must not stray from using the study story in every meeting or change the position of the compere and narrator or leave out the use of the usher for the all-important question time, held at the end of each story. Watchtower head office in New York, supplies every Jehovah's Witness meeting hall in every city of every country, with new study books each month, so that every Jehovah's witness world wide is subjected to this hypnotic process every time they attend a Jehovah's Witness meeting at any meeting hall. Even the Jehovah Witnesses who come to your home in pairs to study with you, are told to study from the Watchtower booklet sitting with you at your table, and one of them will read the story and the other will read the scripture, so that the exact same hypnotic effect is at work on you, in your own home even before you actually decide to commit yourself to attending the local Jehovah's Witness meeting hall as a congregation member. Jehovah's Witness followers are usually beautiful God-loving people who do not have a clue that this is going on, but I assure you, several managers at the very top of the Watchtower organisation in New York, are fully in control of this sinister deception that is killing more than a thousand Jehovah's Witnesses every year.) Reference for this statistic:- "Blood On The Altar" by author, David A Reed.
- When the therapist's hypnosis session is completed, at a time immediately after the left-to-right eye movement has been stopped, the therapist must ask a list of at least four questions which cover each of the four versions of the hypnotic suggestion story, so that the person being hypnotised, begins to think consciously about what was done during the hypnosis session, to bring the newly-programmed belief out of the unconscious mind and establish it as a fully accepted conscious belief. This last part of the session is essential as it joins the conscious mind with the unconscious mind to expand the brain's total acceptance of the hypnotic effect.
This task is covered extremely well by Watchtower's use of the questions supplied at the end of each story printed in the Watchtower study magazine and the usher who Watchtower has instructed to walk the isle to extend the michrophone to those who wish to answer the questions.

Good question....I suppose because thats what the bible says to do. And they have to make their prayers sound normal to the public....or maybe they are just praying for the annoited. I am going back to find an article or two on this topic.

No. You sound pretty sure of that. Its funny that once you start missing meetings, you start doing the things they have had pounded into your head, not to do. Question for ex elders: Were you told to sit to the left of all your bible studies?
