  "as to the old testament name of god, certainly the spelling and pronunciation "jehovah" were originally a blunder.

  (the bible in living english, 1972, p.7, watch tower bible and tract society of pennsylvania) .

  family business.

  an element of the shunning practice of jehovah's witnesses.. .

  if a former jehovah's witness group member has any assets or influence that a current member might want access to, the huge conglomerate that issues their behavior instructions, the watch tower corporation, has provided them a corridor to that influence or to those assets.

  To forgive is to pay

  to forgive is to pay.

  the issue of the offended as well as the offender belonging to the same high control religious group and both seeking their own justice and pardons from the same weighted tribunal has rightfully attracted the attention of the national and local medias.. based on my experience and research, the jehovahs witness's hierarchy takes a course designed to reinforce the facade, often not to the best interests of the principles or to the other group members.. the high control groups are a context owning content.

  that means the jehovah's witnesses are a society, like a small town or a small country.

  elements of misrepresentation

  the elements of misrepresentation: .

  evidence of concealed history, willful misstatements, false promises, inability to perform, and misrepresentation by omission.

  if my religion had been a used car it would have been a lemon and the dealer that sold it to me would be in prison for fraud.

  Control religion

  by garybuss in

  2. friends

  control religion and you control the people.

  the way to control religion is to control the sacred writings.

  the easiest way to control the sacred writings is to write the sacred writings and declare them inspired or divinely directed.
