  The LCD screen after years of the eye fatiguing CRT, had to wait for them for years to come down to a reasonable price. And generally the potential of home computer technology.
  
  The MP3 music collection downloaded free from the P2P network, (fortunately still legal, make the most of it)

  Very good satire, I liked the Gileadite part about reading the Bible in moderation since it refers to the early 80's reviling and expulsion from the org of Bethelites, by the GB for wanting to read just the Bible...instead of spending that time on a hobby.
  
  There you can see clearly the cultish nature of the org and a secret agenda.

  Just Because You "Feel" Something Is True Doesn't Make It So

  by minimus in

  it's interesting how some people "feel" and "know" whatever their gut tells them.

  some are making the outcry that michael jackson is clearly a child molester.

  whether he was acquitted or not makes no difference to them.

  We can't go just by gut feeling and reach decisions without any concrete information especially where it concerns other people because they may well be wrong, but we can use them as possibilities that to are be further investigated. Sometimes gut feelings are right.

  They won't give up their false opinion that the world is today much as it had always been, they still want to see in it signs of the end which is crucial to their control over the members. For them to prosper the end has always got to be near.

  I also use it in the summer to avoid skin irritation between the thighs during long walks in a hot and humid ambience.

  The shifting doctrines can't be from someone that God uses at all let alone as a sole rep on earth, it is a sign of charlatanism. Since when does the Holy Spirit give doctrine that has to be later scrapped as erroneous.
  
  Why does the GB fear open debate so much if their position is as strong as they claim? To date they have not dared to take up the challenge offered to them so many times, to face their opponents publically and especiallly on TV or radio, it goes to show that they are a scum, it would completely wreck their image and authority as they would no doubt get beaten to the ground and exposed. They send out the r & f to preach whereas they hide like cowards.

  Is the Disney company a Cult?

  by Nosferatu in

  me and the wife are heading down to disneyland in the winter.

  i've never been a huge disney fan, but she's a huge fan.

  i've just recently accidently stumbled onto some information that i've never previously been exposed to, and i'm finding it strikingly similar to the jw religion.

  They are not really a religion so they don't have that magical something that touches people's spirits so intensely.

  An idea [Postive Action].

  by jimakazi in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  having only recently discovered this site and finally having at my finger tips [the internet is great] compelling evidence that the jw doctines are nothing but the work of men i feel a need to take action.

  people i care about are still wasting their lives.

  [1] i would like to see some "ready made" resource's that have factual evidence, well articulated, and formated ready for printing that we could use to help current jw's see what is going on.

  Could search the net with google and bookmark all relevant websites and then organise them in the different aspects of the JWs that they deal with eg doctrinal flip flops, early history of the org, scandals etc
  
  Can also pick out and recommend the best ones.
