I have a friend who is a Mason.....BUT he doesn't know about this board....He is a very nice person, but of course he is very low on the totem pole of Masonites. Personally I know next to nothing about Masons. My friend doesn't talk about what goes on behind the dark curtain, and I don't ask.

Brainwashing/Mind control
by Evanescence indo you think the jehovah's witnesses used any brainwashing or mind control techniques on their members?.
what brainwashing techniques do you think they used?.
what do you think works best on jw's to get them out of the mind control?

its more like a hypotist and his subject than a brainwasher and his victim.
the methods for keeping people under the spell may be cooercive, but that were put under by their own consent.
I see it as a kind of hypotist propaganda also. Reading their books and mags, I notice over and over and over and over again the WTS compare their organization and the GB with events and characters in the Bible. Like they are the modern day equivalent of Daniel or Isaiah. I wouldn't, couldn't see it that way.

Abraham and Solomon, To Kill a Child as a Test
by VM44 inhas anyone considered the similarity in the "tests" that abraham and solomon were involved with in the bible?
abraham was "tested" by god to see if he would sacrifice (that is kill!
) his son if told to do so.. jehovah, who could read what was in hearts and so really did not need the test in the first place, let abraham make the preparations to kill his son to see if abraham would really do it.

This is why I don't believe any of this malarkey. I don't need to waste my time on a blood thirsty, murdering "gawd".

religion
by roymond inthroughout jesus' life, the only thing he ever reacted to in either a judgemental way or angrily, was religion.
he got angry enough with the people in the temple, whowere persecuting the poor and stopping people coming to god, that he whipped them and kicked them out the temple.
indeed there are plenty of examples where jesus calls people hypocrites, for demanding rules and not following them themselves.

Of Late Many Here Seem To Be Preaching Aethiesm..
by Qcmbr inwhen i first came here a while back there was plenty of discussion around and about jw topics and general chit chat but of late i've felt quite a sharp increase in posts that are: .
1/ preaching aethism (as opposed to putting it forward in a respectful way as an alternate viewpoint.
2/ vitriolic attacks on those who dare have another view ('damn those stupid heretical believers') .

"Do not put your trust in nobles, nor in the son of earthling man, to whom NO salvation belongs. (Why?) His spirit goes out, he goes back to his ground; in that day his thoughts do perish."
That is my favorite scripture...I shoulda , woulda, coulda put it in the thread for favorite scriptures. I can't find the thread now.

The new shoot to kill powers given 3 days before they made the arrest of those 9 suspecte terrorists was so obviously a ploy to politicise the situation. Stating that they needed the extra powers (which were already in place anyway) due to suspected terrorist activity in Aus. Low & behold a few days later the sh!t goes down (as planned), and all the ignorant nob heads pat the priminister on the back for a job well done. This current government (and the opposition mind you) make me sick...vote green people! damn shame "gods kingdom" was sucha farse:(

Why do you think God's Kingdom is a farse? Jehovah's Witnesses might have been wrong about the dates but that doesn't change what God has to say about setting up his Kingdom on earth when the time does arrive.
