Found myself almost getting reassimilated as I listened to a public talk yesterday. I was surprised at how much 'insider doctrine' was being spouted in a public talk--the need to obey the Governing Body (not God, the Governing Body), mentions of 1914 (though of course, explaining how the heck we arrive at that belief is not mentioned, the public would be mighty confused--oh, right, that's when they'll ask for a Bible study), and the need to stay close to the organization (not God, but God's organization...), justification for the unscriptural practice of reporting field service time (in harmony with DOUBLETHINK, God doesn't care how much time we spend, but the 'slave' just collects your time to keep an eye on your spirituality...oookay, so...if time isn't a measurement of our spirituality before God, then why are you keeping tabs on it?), etc.
I realized that it's fear-mongering--keeping the R&F on edge is vital. Still, it's powerful, especially when you feel scared and lost, like me ever since I found out the real deal. It felt right being there...so easy to go back even though I'll be DF'd sooner or later. My lady friend wants me to give a public talk someday..she doesn't what she's asking. She's asking me to make her a single mom again and devote my time to the Borg. I could become one with the Borg again. We could. All of you will be assimilated as well, soon enough.
Anyway, they mentioned a huge jump in earthquakes since 1914. The above article shows that by and large, (1) earthquakes are not on the rise and (2) our ability to record them has improved, and that would probably be the only reason for higher numbers.
I know plenty have posted on this before. I just needed to remember that this is not real. Grateful for the Internet. Got to post next time my crazy theory on 1914. Who watches the Watchtower? We do.
