this fellow is unique.
he is a relatively young man who is in the adventist church.. he is smart, personable and intellectually honest.. he comes from a balanced attitude without rancor.. he is very very good at debunking the watchtower.

which professions have the most psychopaths?
the fewest?eric barkermarch 21, 2014. ceo is the profession with the most psychopaths.. but first off, psychopath doesnt just mean someone who cuts you up with a chainsaw though the majority of people who do things like that are psychopaths.
Pfft. Confusing sociopaths with psychopaths.
thw wts likes to play games with their statistics.
one interesting but truly tragic is the number of jwhovah's witnesses who commit suicie.. now i suspect that if a person commits suicide shortly before or after they are disfellowshipped then the elders would say that person wasn't a witness or that they had done something so terrible that they were too guilty to admit it and by their action of committing suicide they pretty much declared they were no longer a jw.. yup fancy talk to make sure any crap didn't fall on them.. so my question.. do you know of cases like this?
if so then can you answer a few more questions.. had this person been dfed or in real danger of being dfed or whatever the equivalent is if they were never baptized?.
I know of two, both leaving young children.
Is there are hard data to show whether suicides occur more amongst JW's than in general society?
i'm off work today and its a monday morning.
a male and female jw just knocked on my door, i opened it, the guy just handed me their latest website promoting tract saying "hi, were just leaving these with people today", and then he made to leave.
i looked at the tract and then looked at him as he was turning to walk away and said to him "ok, thanks, but ummm you could've just left it in my letterbox.".
Good question Ding, I should have done that. They seemed in haste to get away, as if they couldn't wait to get off my porch.

They've literally turned JW's into leaflet distributing junk-mail delivery boys/girls except they inconvenience you by knocking on your door. It's like your local Pizza place or McDonalds or KFC staff knocking on your door and hand delivering their advertising material to you.
What is the point of doing this during the week when the majority are 'not-at-homes'? It's ridiculous.
Would they have put it in my letterbox if I wasn't at home? If so, why not just do that in the first place? What benefit is gained by knocking on my door and annoying me just to literally hand me the tract and walk away? If not, then what an absolute mindless and inefficient waste of JW's time and energy. But it's got to be the easiest most braindead way to clock up hours in field service ever, the pioneers must love this!
Idolatrous. They appear to be mimicking the numerous instances in scripture where Jehovah says "And they will have to know that I am Jehovah."
"The world will know...."
"And they will know that I am Jehovah".
IDOLATRY.

Superb, but it would help if the title of the article was proofread and corrected. Currently reads:
i obviously have an active imagination.... i can just see the parallels between "the walking dead" and the masses of witnesses hyped up during the august campaign!.
big crowds of slow walking witnesses with no logical brain function, moving en-mass towards non-witnesses....with only one combined thought "must leave tract".....as they mumble to each other......dragging feet......like zombies..... when one person in the community accepts a tract, they are then the target of every witness who smells their 'interest' and is swamped with more and more visits...big crowds pile on top of them, stripping away at their very individuality and being....until they become one of them!.
.
Nothing new..they are the borg after all. Spiritual zombie magazine and tract salespersons.
today i was at the meeting (i go there about once a month now).
in the service meeting they had a part where they interviewed the secretary of the congregation.. so one question was: "why are the service reports so important?".
our secretary explained that the reports are important, because the elders can see, who is spiritually weak.
I shake my head at how sad and pathetic JW's really are when I read accounts like this.
