Because they are afraid to question the High Mucky Mucks the (governing body) and that is called being "browbeat" and controlled which is commonly called in today's vernacular a CULT, and if you don't agree with this its because your knee deep in the goop of that CULT. Jesus warned about those would brow beat" his sheep! Shane

Apostates? The Witness's are among the most prominent!
by PinTail inthe twilight zone" has its affect in this instance, granted apostate" means basically someone who changes sides; but for the love of mike the jehovah's witness's did the same thing with the "bible students" and then denigrated them to lower position than pagans, and then railroaded them to the way side through deception and greed.
lest ways the bible studens" stayed with in their own light more reasonably than they did.

Well here we go:
As a Catholic you were not really much controled, but once you become a Witness's trust me they will become the KGB and give you hell if you step out of line and they will scare you with Armagedon to keep you in line; and you better keep some friends on the outside cause there may come a time when they may kick your hiney out of the trooth then you won't have no body.

congregational cliques
by chuckyy init was my experience during my 13 yrs as a jw that congregations usually had a social clique.
in other words, there would be a group of people in a congregation that would only associate (and sometimes only go out on field service too) with people within that social clique.
if you were in the clique, fine.

Yeah me too it was a downer to not be invited to go with the elder who took most of the other teenagers on fishing trips in his cab over camper, they all would drink lots of beer and throw fire crackers and get real drunk.
I miss that old basturd, he was fun, he let me go with all of them once we had a bloody good time.

Thanks "Bone" that was a very courageous thing you did, thanks bud from a father of an abused daughter from the hall of those stinky JW's and their unreasonable policies. We should all send CBS such like letters, give us all the scoop on how to do so. Shane

Because like most Jehovah's Witness's they are agents of a large magazine and book publishing corporation, and if they do not spy and speak up for the company and maintain the corporate image they will be fired and then be shunned by other workers and department heads, until they can grabble also beg and crawl back to their jobs; which incidentally may be denied.

Help From Computer Gurus Please!
by heart2heart ini have a program that has the kjv of the bible, and it allows me to install other bibles to compare translations.
i want to install the nwt from the watchtower cd and i can't figure out the "path" for the directory, to tell this program where to find it.
also, does anyone else know of other "online bibles" that i could download?.

You have to instruct your computer to down load the program as soon as it reads it that is if it does not have the comands already on the disk to do so.
Now some programs will not let you down load the contents to the hard drive, mostly old ones, prier to 1994 or so.
