I used to think WT started out with good intentions and just turned to shit after a time through corruption and power struggles. Now I know it was conceived in caca and has been producing it and feeding it to the sheep ever since. Some people prefer a diet of caca and corruption - what can yah do.

"But WHY would you want to know those things??"
by stuckinarut2 ini ran into an older sister who has always been very sweet.. it was a friendly chat...yet she pushed for a reason why my family have been missing from meetings for some time.
the question was deflected, until it just had to be said: "well, there have been some troubling and disturbing issues about the society especially the way things were handled during the royal commission, as well as many other issues".. she quickly cut in and said "but why would you want to know these things?
its best not to research and look at those sort of things - so we don't get upset!".

Is reasoning with a JW the answer?
by Saved_JW inwhen i first left the watchtower society, i can remember being very eager to learn new information, especially information which pertained to discrediting the watchtower organization.
i called it "the cage stage" .
this excitement and newfound change in worldview completely rocked my world.

I do not think it possibe to "reason" with any indoctrinated cult member, not in the true sense of the word "reason" any way. You can plant seeds of truth while they are not looking, but full on reasoning with logic and honest and broad assessment of a subject that threatens their world view? No, they will mentally cut you off everytime, and, if they feel you have gone too far (easy to do with a dub) they will politely pretend to "look that up" and just avoid you like the spiritual plague in the future.
Truth seeding is the best way to go, if you have the time and the patience for it that is.

Did Freddy Franz receive secret instructions from a Jewish aquaintance?
by truthseeker ini recently met a sister who told me she heard of a story that the late president of the watchtower society, mr. freddy franz, received secret instructions on how to direct the organization from a jewish acquaintance.. is this a conspiracy theory or could there be some truth to it?.

Possible I suppose. Wasn't FF the one the others referred to as "The Oracle" ? If so, I always thought it an odd nickname for a supposed man of God. -

when you are fortunate enough to be in the presence of a jw penis you must take care to show the proper respect for it!

I like how it looks in other people but not for myself. A question specially for women.
by StarTrekAngel ini like how it looks in other people but not for myself.. this is a phrase i have heard often from my wife.
now i am to a point where i am trying to figure it out if this is something all women do or say.
i can understand how you would say this if you were talking about a type of clothing that doesn't go with your figure, except that you may add the disclaimer... "if i had that figure i would wear this".

Maybe she lacks the confidence to make what she sees as a bolder ie less conservative fashion statement. Some styles of clothing, jewellery, hairstyles, make up etc take a certain amount of confidence to pull off because of the attention and comments the styles will attract from others, both positive and negative.
Or, sometimes saying "that looks good on you , but I would never wear it" could be a polite way of saying "I would never be caught dead in that ."
