    Think about it...in what area of life does ANYONE do what they do...?

    I'm talking meddling in your "personal" matters, inviting you to the "backroom" (wtf?), discussing how you've "stumbled" someone, tell you you're not doing enough, dictate your clothes, your speech, want to know "why" you weren't at the meeting or FS, need to know the "intimacies" of marriage...to keep the congo clean..., label everyone either "weak" or "a pillar", want to know if you "beat your meat"...(but beating your kids is OK)..., have you been having impure thoughts, help you choose a "spiritual" (ugly) mate, why you bought a (gasp) 2-door car, whether you attended the meetings while on "vacation", turned down that scholarship to "pioneer"...actually got us to sell everything and move to Timbuktu AND STAY....

    Gawd we actually put up with this crap?

    If ANYONE else (cept the Dubby's) was even remotely this "controlling", they'd be shot.

    u/d....there's plenty of cults out there we have never even heard of who controls their followers. The witnesses are one of the most succesful however and most well known for their oddities.

    Are you sure you don't want to go back to them............ya bastard!

    *feeling spunky cuz I prolly ain't gotta work today class*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    See if the JWs fit Steven Hassan's BITE model for cults:

    Behavioral Control
    Information Control
    Thought Control
    Emotional COntrol

    It is so sad that the average dub believes the WT demons when they tell him/her how great it is for them to be in a spiritual pair-o-dice.

    The dubs mix what God wants and what men want...

    The average dub doesn't see the difference.
