    Well, like I've said before; it's probably a pretty easy habit to fall into when you surround yourself only with people who can't disagree with you.

    One of the great values of the internet is that it gets you in touch with people who don't agree with you all the time and you get to see other points of view not your own.

    With that said I have to wonder just what type of internet experience the Governing Body are having with all this free floating sea of ideas called the internet? Probably very limited so as not to shake themselves from that Ivory Tower(God's Organization pipe dream) they live in.

    It's funny; as far as fundamentalist religions are concerned, that particular aspect of the internet is its worst feature.

    I think what they disapprove of is interaction with apostates on the internet. But, there are those who think think this is a generalization and it does not apply to them since they consider themselves "spiritually mature".

    They sure have. You should have seen the paranoia on my Father's face, in his body language, and the fear in his voice when I installed it at his house a few years back.

    There was a line in a magazine that said, "..and some familes have chosen not to have the internet in their home," which as we all know is code for "If you're a good faithful JW you won't use the internet."

    They definitely made everyone think it is evil.

    At some stage they depicted the plug from the modem (that goes into the computer) as a snake. - Vidqun

    OMG I laughed and thought you were joking until I read on down the page. Speechless at the psychological manipulation. Fraz mentioned on another thread that this organization instills phobias in kids that they use in later life to manipulate people. Wow, unbelievable!

    Found the link to the post by Fraz. I think this is really important if you remember the scene in the Sparlock vid with the snake. WT manipulation is very clever. They really have some experts working on this. Anyone have that picture of the snake in the Sparlock vid?
