Jehovah and the Munchausen Syndrome
by Terry inwhat is munchausen by proxy syndrome?.
one of the most harmful forms of child abuse, munchausen by proxy syndrome was named after baron von munchausen, an eighteenth-century german dignitary known for telling outlandish stories.
a parent will induce illness or injury in their own child and then take the victim in to the hospital to be seen as the heroic savior.. typically, the perpetrator feels satisfied when he or she has the attention and sympathy of doctors, nurses, and others who come into contact with him or her and the child.. because the parent or caregiver appears to be so caring and attentive, often no one suspects any wrongdoing.. .

Slow to anger? yeah right(!)
by highdose inthe god of the new testement is descriped as being slow to anger, yet the god of the old testement is anything but.
in fact its a wonder any of the israelites got to the promised land considering how fond their god was of killing them off!.
please provide me with some proof of this slowness of anger or some reason for this contradiction?.

First century vs Today
by gutted ini was discussing doctrine with my mom, to try to get her to see things in another way.
unfortunately things got heated.
she obviously has doubts, but seems to be of the thinking of better not to question and just go along.. she did make a good point though.

I want them to see me as ornary, everyday normal.
First, I assume you mean ordinary rather than ornary. Second, I would rather die than be seen as normal. I can't for the life of me understand people who don't want to be unique.

"We must also be on guard against extended association with worldly people. Perhaps it is a neighbor, a school friend, a workmate, or a business associate. We may reason, 'He respects the Witnesses, he leads a clean life, and we do talk about the truth occasionally.' Yet, the experience of others proves that in time we may even find ourselves preferring such worldly company to that of a spiritual brother or sister. What are some of the dangers of such a friendship?" Watchtower 1994 Feb 15 p.24
"Just think what would become of you if you were to abandon the protective environment of the Christian congregation. Many, recalling their futile course of life before they accepted the truth, simply shudder at the thought. (John 6:68, 69) You can continue to find security and protection from the woes and misery so common in Satan's world by staying in close company with your Christian brothers and sisters." 6/15/10 Watchtower p. 8, par. 19

Planted a seed today... Update on de-program of my 16 year old son
by Aussie Oz inwell, some of you know that i have a 16 year old son who lives with his jw mother.
she has already mastered the art of guilt control on him.
i am most anxious that he not get baptized at all or at least unless he has really understood the whole truth, not just the watchtower truth.

by Elsewhere inthis is one of the most important concepts you could ever grasp.
unfortunately humans do not naturally understand this idea, so we need to throw in a bit of simple math to help us understand.. below is a series of videos that will help you understand.
yes, these are extraordinarily boring, but you will be a much better person for watching them.. .

So if a secular work is in favor of the JWs it's acceptable to do outside research. If a scholar called into question the reliability of the NWT (or any other JW publication or teaching) would your father read that or dismiss it?

New Video about Paradise Earth with a very Atheistic concept...
by Tuesday inhey folks!.
thought'd you enjoy my latest video, i've had it written for a week or more just getting away from the newborn enough to record it has been a super hassle.
a woman made a video about living forever on paradise earth and how she wouldn't get bored in it because there's so much she's wanted to do in this life that hasn't had a chance to do because of her "circumstances".
