Avoid Going back to the JW's - Educate Yourself about Mind Control
by flipper ini've talked with some good friends on the board about this before and we seem to be in agreement : one reason ( among many ) that some disfellowshipped jw's go back and return to the wt organization is because they are full of uneeded guilt or uneeded fear because they haven't educated themselves about how the wt society uses mind control tactics to deceive them into thinking they have " nowhere else to go " .
i understand that some dfed ones may go back to the organization for family and friends- however- it's an exrecise in futility because once you learn the truth about the truth you cannot undo what you heard.
so some may just go back and live a fake jw life to appease family- but just think of how that can damage a person's emotional and mental health playing the fake jw game the rest of their lives !

THe latest theory I just read is that they're wondering why there were no cell phone calls placed from the passengers (like their was on 9/11), perhaps the pilot just headed straight for the ocean or something. I have to say though, when I read the names of the pilots, similar to those involved in 9/11, I have a feeling that it was intentional, but at this point no one will ever know.

In Pharell's song "Happy" there's a line that says "cause happiness is the truth". How many times do you think that line has been used in a comment or a talk by now?
As Bro. TwofacedElder gives his talk, "there's a very popular song out right now and there's a line in it that says "cause happiness is the truth", so brothers we must . . . . . . . . and keeps speaking ad nauseum.
Or Sis. PiousPioneer as she ends her comment in the WT study, "and even as the song says that's very popular right now "cause happiness is the truth". Probably making the others made because they wanted to use that in their comment.

Outlaw- Just the other day I was wondering if "Miz/George/Pure Worship" was banned from the board or he was just taking a break while he thinks up a new name.

I think you mean 47th Street and Ninth Ave, You're staying on 49th but on 9th Ave? Is that the Holiday Inn? Trying to place what hotel that is if it's on 9th.

Can't speak for a tourist trap like Times Square, but the usual places I see them with the kiosks during the weekday are empty on the weekends.

Over 7yrs as a JW and I just found out I'm not supposed to buy Girl Scout Cookies?
by Maat13 ini'm still in the matrix(the truth), but 'morpheus' and his team are valiantly working on a way to get me out.
in the meantime, everyday i am discovering so much about being a jw i never knew, like don't buy girl scout cookies, that i keep asking myself "what have i got myself into".. maat.
really lame for a first post, but i figure i should start some where.

My mother always bought girl scout cookies from her coworker for her daughter and from a neighborhhood girl, this was in the 60's and 70's, so when did the "noo lite" about GS cookies start taking effect?

Get ready for phone calls from Elders either this week or when the next CO visit happens.
by EndofMysteries ini got a call the other day, it looks like the gb is telling everyone to contact all inactive ones, let them know they are missed, etc, and to do it within a week.

So what is this supposed to accomplish, contacting those who have disassociated or whatever?
Nothing but more hours on the almighty timesheet!
Wow, they keep their blind followers running like those young, new college students who try to join the fraternity and are ready willing and able to do the most stupid things to look good in other "stupid peoples" eyes.

Hey Flip - My aunt will be 101 this year and she just got 24/7 care when she was 99, a neighbor stopped by and found her disoriented and that got the ball rolling. Seems to me as if the funds are there for care from what you've posted.. At this point I'm sure your dad could probably use some help with housecleaning, food, etc. Sounds like somebody needs to be appointed over your moms care. I don't know the law, but if your siblings are dragging their feet and you're the only showing interest it appears as if you're the best bet.
