IW
reminds me of the famous "Blame the Victim" mindset.
It is very clear that this poster has done very little research on how High control Groups affect persons, while I agree that the fact i was constipated last year may have little to do with wt, the entire mindset of a sincere jw is influence in every way
this is why this post while funny and cute really highlights just how the wt has ingrained and programmed the avg jw to think and feel
and esp if you were like many of us, we were kids
but then again many who were adults were introduced to this poison at very low points in their life many times
loss of a love one, bad health struck them, money problem, living in a country where warefare has gone on day and night for the last 15yrs, no food, just poor living conditions , folks living in huts iwth dirt floors, etc.
and with conditions in ones life such as these, along comes some clean cut person with a BOOK CALLED the bible that many folks have been taught to love and cherish all of thier lives, yet they understood little
and someone shows them God's name and a few other text and , then invite them to a place where folks don't care if you are poor, uneducated, and have nothing and then tell you that YOU ARE SPECIAl
the person is LOVED bOMBED everyone wants to come to your house for your bible study, you are told that you are making progress, something that you have never been told in your life, you are startng to feel like part of a big happy family, your husband stop gettig drunk and now you are doing the will of god as a family , is it hard at times o yes but in the end you are told it will be worth any thing
you make life choices based on the fact that god will hook you up, you are told the david said he never say a righteous one bdg for bread
you too want to be considered a righteuos one and all you have to do is warn folks of the end,
when one takes in the entire context of who people lives are when they are introduced to the wt then it takes on a different flavor
i have always been amazed at how someone can be so FLIP-IT
about folks who made life choices based on the wrong info and then blame them
I certainly hope that IW never gets lost in SE DC and ask a clean cut person on the street for directions late one night, who decides that they just want to F#%K with someone this night and send her up a one way street and she runs into the "P Street Crew"
i'm sure that some one who reads about her being ganged rape and left for half dead the next day in the paper while they are sipping the "Star Bucks" coffee will say;
"she knew the rules of getting lost in the HOOD"
