  UBER-WITNESS: THE ELITE FORCE . . . a study in how a fanatic is created

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  at what point in the average person's life does he/she reach a crossroads between purposeful pursuit of a life's goal and mad fanaticism?.

  we have all known these automatons; these uber-witnesses.. we might even have been one ourselves!.

  the uber-witness can make an excuse for any watchtower mistake at the crack of a whip!.

  What an excellent post Terry. I always enjoy your writing but this particular article got my attention big time.

  Though I was an elder and PO, I never considered myself uber only because I knew that often times I was shoveling shit of some sort or other. (Just wouldn't admit it)

  Ive been recently asked why I kept doing it. I'm not really sure if it was peer pressure, stubbornness or sheer stupidity. It took some time even after the blinders were removed to fully admit to myself and others that it was all a pile of shit and even after being out for 7 years my spirituallity has and is still tainted. I have a hard time believing in anything.

  here is a personal question:.

  is it disturbing to you when an author jumps into the flow of history and radically departs in order to drive an important lesson home to the reader?.

  in this novel i have several watch tower leaders meeting incredibly violent deaths at the hands of --well, i won't give anything away.

  Am I a judgmental bastard or just one of the last sane persons on this planet?

  so, i happened to see a young lady.

  she's about 13 or 14, can't be more than 16 years old.

  fresh faced, rosy cheeks, and a little pudgy.

  ...when i told them i didn't believe anymore.

  they cried like i'd never seen before.

  my oldest, 10, pleaded with me that she'd do anything to get me to keep going to meetings ("i'll get a's on my report card!").

  What the writer of Revelation intended by his cryptic 666 mark of the beast reference.

  by Island Man in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it's amazing how simple the answer is and yet the watchtower organization seems completely oblivious to it.

  revelation itself tells you what the number is: "a man's number", "the number of his name".

  the writer of revelation spells it out and yet they don't see it!
