  Today, I was hanging out with my girlfriend and we were bored and cold, so we went over to my mom's Kingdom Hall just to show her what a cult looks like. I was demonstrating to her how the witnesses use vague, emotion driven speech to try to conjure up the strong feelings in their members so they could control them easier, but I didn't pick this tiny tidbit up. We kind of listened to the beat of the Kingdom Melody and we noticed something very odd.... The Kingdom Songs' cadences are the same rythmic cadences a hypnotist would use to hypnotize a person.

  Is a cadence out of tune still hypnotic?

  Are these the NEW SONGS advertised in Revelation that they are singing out of the new books now?

  So there's a new song called "Dog sin o' miss"?

  cadence means "rhythm" or "flow"

  There was a great post on here a coupla years ago about how the whole public talk and WT study is one big group hypnosis session.

  Until I read that post I never realized that there are NO uptempo songs in the songbook. This is use to soothe the mind and soften it for the hypnotic session

  This is a great point. One of the first things I noticed when I first attended an Advent Lutheran service was how much more upbeat the music was; instead of lulling you to sleep, it actually woke you up.

  Also, I noticed how Jesus is praised and God is actually worshipped in other churches....whereas the JW's songs are all about obediance, the F&DS, preaching, etc, etc.

  Also, remember the song "We Are Jehovah's Witnesses"? Why on earth are we singing about ourselves when we should be giving glory to God? That song was haughty and boastful.
