  Avoid doctrine at all costs. This will trigger the cult personality.

  Steve Hassan has some great suggestions in his 2nd book, on how to get cult members to think for themselves. Once they begin doing this, they can see through the mind control.

  COMMENTS YOU WILL NOT HEAR AT THE WT STUDY Nov, 24-20, 2008

  by Mary in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i told blondie i'd do the comments this week to help give her a bit of a break.

  this week's study is all about resisting the spirit of the world.

  this is nothing new really-----they've been preaching this for decades, but it still unbelievable how hypocritical they can be......... the study article is in black, my comments are in blue and unless otherwise noted, all scriptures are from the nwt.. .

  WHY don't Americans realize GUNS are destroying their country?

  by Witness 007 in

  usa today everyone has a gun, why?.....to protect themselves...from who?

  other folks with guns!.....yes it's in your laws...but they were written when the british ruled you.

  one school gun killing every week does not happen anywhere else in the world....maybe you need more guns to protect your kids.....one in the lunchbox.....does anyone else see this.

  The Oberoi Group employs many plainclothes security officers in its hotels, but these are unarmed, Oberoi said. Obtaining a license for even a single officer to carry a gun is extremely difficult in India, which has tight gun control laws.

  Another Epic Failure in a Gun-Free Zone...

  Anyone else use a French press to get their morning dose of Vitamin J[ava]? Any tips or suggestions?

  They call themselves Christians, but they wouldn't know Jesus if they met him on the street. In fact, because he wears a beard, they would condemn him.
