i hope they do a good job, my wife watches him every day.. hope steve hassan is a guest..
I get the feeling that a few of the posters on this thread haven't read the books written by cult expert Steven Hassan.
He didn't believe JWs were a cult either until he examined them closer.
Anyone who has had their family broken up by this organization can tell you how truly sinister the Watchtower is.
I agree with the poster who said that seeing tactics other cults use is a good way to see the JW religion for what it really is.

"paranormal activity", "the ninth gate", "the orphanage", "1408", and "the others" are a few i like to get the ball rolling..
I agree, Nugget, I'd rather be creeped out than grossed out.
i had to give a talk away today, which came up somewhat unexpected.
i had a couple days to get this outline together, and thats sufficient enough time for me, but i prefer knowing a week in advance.
at any rate, it all worked out.
If you're so jealous of a guy that you want to take his head off his shoulders then you probably shouldn't be standing in front of an audience advising them on how to live a peaceful, loving life.

some of my favorites include the beatles' "blue jay way", .
the beastie boys' "namaste",.

FlyingHighNow, when I started collecting the Beatles on CD years ago the very first album of theirs that I had to have was "Magical Mystery Tour" cuz it was so psychedelic.
Some time back a Beatles thread was started on this site, possibly by Flipper, I don't now remember, and I kept inserting Rutles songs into it. Funny stuff!

every once in a while there's a story so well told that it deserves lots and lots of kudos and plugs.

I really related to the author in so many ways, but especially on his situation with his JW wife. Thanks for sharing! And the elephant illustration is one I'll be reminding myself of for some time to come.

I can remember going on bible studies as a kid and Herbert Armstrong was often brought up by the householder.
I had no idea why there was an issue then, and only just now learned in the past few years.
I have so much respect for an organization that can admit its mistakes.
It is something none of us here have ever experienced.
