Kinda like going out again with an ex who seems ok and we think maybe we made a mistake by leaving but then the little things that bugged us start popping up and we think "Oh yeah this is why I left this a**hole."
Why Do We Enjoy Being Baited By Pro-Watchtowerites?

It's morbidly interesting to read their pathetic retorts to established facts, their desperate attempts to defend an abusive, deceitful organization.
I kinda liken it to watching spider monkey's at the zoo: most of the stuff they do is really goofy and stupid, but its insanely entertaining to watch.

like GBL said, it's morbidly fascinating. it's like having a conversation with your old self. it's like a time machine.
that, and the fact that it's so damn easy to tear them a new hole?

Because it's like watching a TV series rerun.

...Because it's about the closest thing there is to going back in time and talking to an earlier version of yourself.

I like it because it gives the intelligent, intellectual and anger management folks here an opportunity to express themselves. Mostly I like it because it gives me a good needed laugh.

It just reinforces my reasons for having left. Most of the comments I hear from JW's now are very familiar, I used the same "reasoning" when I was one.
I remember once being at a door and the guy telling me that I was young and needed to "look into" my religion and see the reality. I used the same reasoning I hear JW's use now and he was just shaking his head. Now I know what he was thinking and how foolish I sounded to him. I realize now how I was just repeating what I was taught to repeat, and that in light of all the facts, it really sounded dumb. Listening to JW's now just reinforces to me how wrong and blind I was back then. -

I like it because it helps reinforce to me that the WTBTS is a wicked organisation and that the people in it are victim to a form of twisted thinking and lies.
