  Watchtower logical fallacies

  by RunningMan in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i believe that in order to effectively immunize a person against the disease of watchtowerism, it is necessary to bring them to a full, conscious understanding of their tactics.

  i am currently working on a document for my son that shows how the society uses faulty logic to make their points.

  the document lists several common logical fallacies and then provides examples from the societys teachings.

  Do You Regard This Place As A Rehab Centre?

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  to clarify:.

  on this site, and others, i regularly come across people who say they are "moving on", or "getting a life for themselves", or simply stating that they have "outgrown this place".. now, i'm not talking about people who have simply got bored with posting, or are cheesed off with someone else and decide not to post anymore.

  i'm talking about ex's who have come here purely as some sort of therapy exercise and believe that, once recovery is achieved, that "moving on" is a necessary conclusion to their re-adjustment back to normality.. in other words, like sandra bullock believed in "28 days", they assume that leaving is a sign that they are no longer operating dysfunctionally.

  What is the worst thing about leaving?

  by sleepy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  .

  everyone probably has a slightly different experience when leaving the witnesses.the worst aspect about this for me is the realisation that my enteire life has been lived and directed by a false premiss, and the effect past decisions now have on my life.. it can make me feel sick in the stomach on occation.. also the idea that friends and family think i have tuned bad or evil to have left jehovah is qute disturbing at times.

  by sandy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i was wondering as i have been lately; did i turn my back on god and am i wrong for turning my back on the organization?.

  are there any of you out there that feel like you have a real personal relationship with god with or without religion in your life?

  do you still call god jehovah?

  how does Jehovah rationalize Babel?

  by SpiderMonkey in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i'll try to keep this concise... this is an issue i never got an answer to, from the elders or any witness, on my way out of the "truth":.

  jws believe that god permits evil to answer the "age-old challenge from satan the devil," that man can't rule himself without god, correct?

  (please correct me if i'm wrong).
