  Cold Reading and the supernatural

  by Dogpatch in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i just finished doing a consultation with a woman who is still struggling with guilt and manipulation left over from the watchtower, and i introduced her to the concept of cold reading.

  i think its good for people to understand this subject, something very important in exit-counseling, when people feel that a group or leader is right because they know so much that seems otherwise unknowable.

  i thought i would share this article for some of you who aren't familiar with the subject.randy.

  This Greber 'coverup' is disgusting, Isn't it?

  by AK - Jeff in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i had proven to myself, with help from ray franz and others, that the 'truth' was not the 'truth' about three years back - so in most cases i have paid little attention to further proof.

  once proven, always proven, right?.

  then this week, i began to do a little research into the greber thing - i typed in greber watchtower to my google seach.. 465 hits - and started to read a few of the websites.

  MOve on!???

  2. friends

  ok so i am a ex-witness,(disfellowshiped) i have posted here before...but i must say why have'nt we moved on?

  come on i mean if we all really thought that the jw sect was just that then why are we not trying to forget it and let life go on as it has; and try to be true to ourselves and our neighbor and read jesus words as recorded in the bible?

  i have been reading my bible on lunch breaks at my work, as well as reading in the dhammapada.

  Sort of morbid question

  by unbeliever in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this came to my mind after i read 24k's would you go back thread.

  just say when armageddon came jehovah gave you one last chance to repent of your apostate ways and live for eternity with jw's.

  would you take jehovah up on this offer or ask him to strike you dead?
