Jw upbringing and retarded social growth.
by AK - Jeff ini was raised a jw, by an inactive jw mom.
looking back, and reflection on my childhood, causes me to wonder.. i honestly did not miss the holidays, for example.
i never had them, so nothing was taken away in that regard.

If the Bible was written more clearly, would there be a need to preach?
by easyreader1970 inpart of the reason there are so many divisions and opinions and versions of the bible is because, quite honestly, alot of it just doesn't make any sense.
it's full of symbolism, metaphors, allegories, parables, and even some of the narratives conflict with themselves.
the book of revelation makes no sense at all.

book recommendations?
by Switch inmissinglink and i read steven hassan's combatting cult mind control.
it appears that the moonies and other cults use similar lingo to the jw's like truth and worldly people, etc.
and shunning, recruiting new ones and many other concepts are comparable.

WHO is authorized to pronounce judgement? Those WITHOUT sin?
by Terry in"let him who is without sin cast the first stone.".
the above statement by jesus was directed at a throng of men about to stone a prostitute in accordance with the law of moses.. jesus did not say the law of moses was wrong or that the men should not carry out the judgement against the prostitute.. jesus did single out a qualifying eligibility which stopped the execution by an appeal to conscience.
"let him who is without sin....".
