I am a Kultologist (the study of Kults) and conducting a study...
...and the grouping of people here affords a wonderful opportunity
to explore an area of research I've recently undertaken-
and that is the (growing) phenomenon of x-jWs who have ostensibly "left"
the Watchtower Kult, but continue to present with remarkable symptoms
of Kult Thinking and the Application of former Kult Indoctrination.
Here, we started our research in this thread with one individual
particulary infected and manifesting the pathological symptoms of Kult.
* http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.asp?id=25431&site=3
But we lost our "funding" and "access to this person who was in the process
of exhibiting the advanced stages of this condition"... due to the doors
of our "research lab" being pad-locked shut.
So, we shall try again and start all over.
Please allow our research to continue.
Most of here have known about the looong Hatred of any Religion/Faith
by jehovah Witnesses.
You could say, that the Watchtower is about the Most religiously Intolerant
organization on the face of the Earth, bar none.
The jehovah Kultists want the Watchtowergod to Wipe-Out All Religions...
and display their sick fantasies in their print propaganda as to how
they imagine this will take place, and the bonafide, active Kultists
seem to fairly revel in this pictorial disposal of all their "enemies".
They call this Kult symptom "Love", when most people would call it "Hate".
(a Most Interesting Dichotomy of the accepted understanding of both words)
The Watchtower Kultists say it is an act of "Love" for their god
to remove all the "mentally-diseased" non-Kultists from the face of the earth,
so that it will be "clean" and "pure" and "whole" again...
These are a couple of the most remarkable symptoms with which
the typical Kultists presents, and most of us with experience
inside the Kult know there are, sadly, many more.
But the phenomenon, which seems to be occurring here in this forum
in ever increasing manifestations, are former Watchtower Kultists
who continue to exhibit and apply the same negative Kult traits
they lived by and practiced when they were members of the Watchtower Kult.
Many, or more than a few of the ex-jWs here in this forum
wind up showing the same Intolerance of others as did their former Kult.
They display Violent and Destructive "Art" which is strikingly similar
to the Watchtower's very own Grotesque Illustrations.
We have collected a few Specimens here, for study and close examination:
* http://www.intrex.net/tallyman/WT_Evil.html
In their writings on this board, they, the X-Kult-Kultists use text
descriptions of the very same type of intolerance toward people of faith
as does the Watchtowerkult.
It is as if, they remain infected with the Kult contagion, and have not
purged the systemic poison from their minds and hearts, yet.
These former kultists seem to celebrate the deaths of "opposers"
to their way of thinking. They describe and display in graphic form
the violent destruction of religious statuary and icons such as crucifixes,
and even portray, as does the Watchtower "art" progaganda, the scary
Giant Hand coming down from the sky to smash those in opposition to their
"new" way of thinking.
We've been working with Watchtower "Art" lately, and the "art" displayed
in a "gallery" of sorts, has striking similarites with WT Kult Imagery.
The phenomenon seems to show that once some Kultists "leave" the Kult,
the Kult Indoctrination does not leave them, and they "recycle" it
to fit their "new" worldview... and lack of a belief system.
As does the WT Kult, they horribly disparage those who still cling
to faith in God or a Higher Power, which is not in agreement with whatever
thinking they manifest and a hold to be the ONLY "rational" way to think.
Some affected by this new phenomenon have gone so far to suggest,
nay exclaim, that ANY who express faith in God, are mentally diseased.
Many times they have you posted here that Religionists, or People of Faith
are "Mentally Ill" ...and especially that Christians are "mentally diseased".
Same MO the Watchtower has long used, to cast all earthlings who believe
in any G/god/desses Other Than their "jehovah-Of-The-Watchtower"
as "Mentally Diseased", and therefore only "Vessels Fit for Destruction".
The teachings of The Kult, although somewhat tweaked and modified
seem to live on in these ones affected/infected by this phenomenon.
This cause us to question, in our Research, what these X-Kult-Kultists
would have us to believe is the "cure" for this "mental illness"...
or IS there even a cure?
The Watchtowerkult "cure" is Extermination.

Please, those of you so inclined and would like to participate in this
study, please offer us your opinion of what accounts for this pitiable
manifestation of negative Kult conditioning on the part of those
who have claimed and are claiming to be "free" of Kult.
We have even seen here, a related phenomenon, though thankfully small as yet,
a form of "recycling" of Watchtower Kult training which is used to form
Secular Kults.
Your observations would be greatly appreciated as to what accounts
for this mysterious malady and inexplicable pathological behavior.
Please post your observations here for further study by the group,
so that a kind of brainstorming can begin.
Thank you Very Much.
