  Memorial 2008 Protest - will you join me?

  by besty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there's been a few threads about how to campaign against the wts - various suggestions including appointing a charismatic leader, (do they get appointed?

  i thought they just kind of appeared, self-appointed), printing a brochure(ok we're in the 21st century lets make it a blog, cheaper and easier to distribute), calling the bethel and boycotting a meeting.

  which all got me to thinking, what can i do, and what if everybody else (or a lot) could do the same?

  what do you think about the reduced time of the public talks?.

  i actually find it pleasant, it makes it a lot easier to tolerate some of the boring speakers.

  but what about the service.

  Did You Ever See this in Your Congregation ? Mind Control - By Hassan

  by flipper in

  1. jw

  in steve hassan's book , " combatting cult mind control" it states : " a famous experiment in conformity by dr. solomon asch demonstrated that people will doubt their own perceptions if they are put in a social situation where it appears that the most confident people in the group are all giving the wrong answer to a question.

  another psychologist , stanley milgram , tested people for obedience to authority and found that over 90 percent of his subjects would obey orders, even if they believed that doing so caused physical suffering to another person.

  milgram wrote : " the essence of obedience consists in the fact that a person comes to view himself as the instrument for carrying out another person's wishes, and therefore no longer regards himself as responsible for his own actions .
