  Expecting small children to think/feel/act/talk all Jehovahery at the KH and in ministry and around other witnesses and then do things the parent's way at home is NOT the answer. In my opinion that would only succeed in producing very mixed up, confused, damaged adults.

  The the only reponsible action to take against WT propoganda and indorctrination is to not expose your child to it.

  In other words stop taking them to meetings.

  No sane person would expose their child to white supremacist meetings and excuse it by telling the child in private

  "That's not how we do things in this family son, regardless of the meetings we attend"

  That's just madness!!

  How can this not be considered child abuse?

  Message to any who still take their children to meetings : Stop subjecting your child to this psychological abuse!

  My thoughts on the last WT study. Keep in Expectation

  by StarTrekAngel in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  so i sat thru another brain mushing session for the sake of family.

  it is no myth by now that the more time you spend awake the harder it is the accept that people just take all of this in without asking.

  a computer has more reasoning abilities than your average jw at this point.

  I had a sister tell me that people will only see Jesus coming with their "mental eyes" lol.

  I thought, yeah, you got the "mental" part right!

  I see what they are doing they are doing, (possibly)

  This is actually a new light adjustment to address the issue that statistically speaking conditions in the world have improved since 1914.

  The "signs of the last days" will now be an invisible sign that only true WT christians will know are occurring.

  So, no need for a "sign" at all really. They can keep this shit going indefinitely .

  Who Qualifies for TTATT?

  by John Aquila in

  when i first learn ttatt i started telling every one.

  ttatt will not help him, it will destroy him.

  all his family are jws.

  I have no idea how another person will react to hearing the ttatt, but I do believe everyone deserves to be informed of the facts regarding harmful teachings and then they can make up their own mind.

  Having said that, I don't believe it's my responsibility to go round bursting other peoples bubbles for the heck of it either.

  The whole concept of "qualifying for ttatt" is in itself a hangover from being in a cult

  What other Shenanigans can we expect to see in the next 2 years?

  by John Aquila in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  its been a little over 2 years since i left the watchtower.

  in that time the magazines have been cut, the birth of jwtv, jw-org.

  carts for preaching, removed district overseers, cut assemblies, demand all the money from the congregations, stop construction and layoff bethelites, change the format of the tmschool .

  Plus, I believe they make and plan their decisions well in advance of when they are officially revealed to the brothers.

  What I haven't figured out yet is where this is all leading.
