    Hi,

    I just put a new article on my site called, "Who Molds Your Thinking?". It is about the Watchtower's use of brainwashing its members. http://www.towertotruth.net/whomolds.htm

    Hope you like it.

    My definition of mind control:

    Seperate people into a controlled environment. Positive reinforcement of orthodoxy in information presentation, only is allowed. Negative reinforcement of everything non orthodox in information presentation is de rigeure. Cut off external information and association. Use postive social reinforcement for orthodox behaviour, negative social re inforcement for non orthodox behaviour. Apply peer pressure within the group to elicit compliance and bombard with slogans, symbols and works reinforcing the polarities.

    Do they practise mind control?????

    HELL YES!!!

    I liked your article too. It covered the main point about the information being one-sided and from one source. It refuted well their initial statement.

    Great job, Tower Man!

    This is the kind of post that does the most good for current members of the JW's. Very unbiased, straightforward, and neutral.

    I appreciate your good work, and hope to hear more from you!

    Hello Towerman my Friend,

    Great article! Matt. 11:28 was KEY for me during my transition from the watchtower to Christianity! All of my life I was taught that I could not pray to Jesus. It would be false worship.....WHEN my eyes were opened to Matt 11:28, I cried with joy literally. Although still indocrinated by the wt....this was the beginning of the end of their false doctrines for me! I remember saying to myself, "Wait a minute.....how on earth can I "come to Him" if I can't pray to Him??? This was the start of my freedom in Christ! The road has been long but I've been spoon fed like a babe ever since............!

    BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    p.s. uh....do i know u? lol Love in Christ, dj
