Chook - a tattoo of the logo on the arse is a great idea for the CO and GB at least then the brothers "reaching out" will know exactly where to plant their lips.

How smart were the ancients?
by Coded Logic ingrowing up as a jw, i always thought the ancients were scientific morons who knew next to nothing.
ashamedly, i used to run around citing isaiah 40:22 as proof of the bible's 'divine authorship' because it talked about "the circle of the earth".
as though this were somehow an unknowable before spaceflight.

It's a fascinating subject coded logic. I have just started researching this topic myself and have been amazed at the level of ancient technology, building and construction methods etc. I'd say much knowledge has been lost.

Sounds reasonable. Good to hear you hanging in there for the sake of your children cos it's probably going to be a bumpy ride, JWs can be sneaky and manipulative. Try to gather supportive friends or family to see you through this.

Jw mummies boys
by purrpurr ini've had the misfortune to encounter quite a few mummies boys in the cult.
men aged 20-40 who although in men's bodies think,act and behave like children.
their mother's had them tied to the apron strings tightly.

Speaking as an ex-sister who has encountered many many entitled elders sons/daughters and CO's wives etc, I think the programming can have different effects on different individuals. Some sisters retreat into doormat mode, some become super aggressive amongst other women.

Paranoid why the coordinator's wife is soft shunning me
by Isambard Crater infor the past six months the coordinator's wife has definitely been avoiding me, turning her back or walking away when i walk in her direction, giving me a stare at other times.
if i try to make casual conversation with her, she literally walks away or just looks through me until someone else comes to talk to her.. i can only think of one reason, which is that she may have seen me give a car ride to a disfellowshipped person months ago.
i mean, it would be totally random if she happened to spot me on this one short journey, but it's possible.

Don't let it destabilize you or weaken your "mentally out" resolve as it's just JW mind games, act like you don't give a crap, ignore her and continue on with your fade.

Let me start again so as not to offend and In the spirit of being an equal opportunity PC poster. I think, WT indoctrination has the potential to f**k up both boys and girls expectations of the opposite sex which can lead to problems as adults and in marriage - IM humble O only.

Cofty - Ok, active born in Jw men can be narcissistic man child - better?
I notice you didn't compain about the "princess programming" I said can occur with young sisters.
Besides, It was purrpurr that said it first, I was merely concurrcurring, along with other posters.

'Select all images with a' gone mad..
by Dis-Member into log in today i had to do the security image thing 16 times.. bug?.

I've noticed that occasionally the image you are supposed to be identifying is different for what is shown with no "skip" option. For eg it says to hit vehicles when it's showing signs. Sparrow says what the heck and hits the vehicle squares it verifies and goes on to next pictures of "signs" (vehicles) and also verifies and viola I'm in.
Who am I to argue with the AI.

Instructions to remove old WT information from kh libraries
by Half banana ina pimo friend (physically in mentally out) has just informed me that the cult has decided that they want to suppress all old jw org information by removing bound volumes etc from kh libraries.. in reality, all through their history they have claimed divine "new light" as a means of changing uncomfortable doctrines.
this however would mean that new jws, or more likely these days young jws, will be prevented from seeing the old light which had been held up as divinely inspired truth in the past.. truth which would get you through big a and which if you didn't agree with would get you disfellowshipped.. anyone else heard of this?
what might be the reasons (if true) for removing the old wts?.

WT would ideally like to see their entire actual true history to be wiped from the face of the earth and replaced with a fictional whitewashed version.
