Cult of Apostates
by Victor_E in
1. jw
2. friends
the cult of jw apostates is a worldwide phenomenon that keeps growing.

unlike their counterparts it takes very little to recruit new members.

while the jws spend thousands of hours in making a new convert it only takes a moment to get someone to open their eyes and wake up from the social hypnosis the jws induced upon them.. there is no legal vow an apostate needs to take.

over the last 20 years i have seen christians make the same mistakes over and over again.

they think that all they have to do is preach and xjws will respond .... doesn't work!

i have seen very few xjws who have become christians immediately and stayed that way.

social psychology and group dynamics.

studies have shown that todays cults use a stronger form of control than those of 50 years ago.

the advent of new psychological experiments in the 60s and 70s have produced the modern methods of mind control which are far more sophisticated than the behaviour modification techniques and thought reform developed by the chinese.
