i'm currently visiting a psychologist/therapist to help me examine and work through my depression- i've had medical depression/anxiety all of my life.
i'm no longer anxious or excessively paranoid for the most part- that was a part of my younger childhood, probably from fears and nightmares of destruction at armageddon, and other childhood exaggerations and amplified fears.
but right now, she's treating me for a recent fall back into a depression.. anyways, for the most part, as you could guess, my depression stems from learning i have wasted my entire life (17 years) up to now in a cult, and pretty much my entire perceived world was nothing but an illusory concept.
I personally don't feel like it is your responsibility to educate your therapist. She should already be knowledgeable of such things.
I have to agree - although there is nothing wrong with doing some research on your own.
You have told her what you came out of, right?

It sounds like a reasonable theory, Jim.
a predatory jw paedophile micheal porter (uk) who has a 15 year record of abuse including the rape of his own baby but somehow evaded jail now is a member of my old congregation;wimbledon.
words fail me, to think of the years of shunning that these idiots have heaped upon me even by my own family and this piece of shit was seen a this years memorial laughing and joking with the congregation.
strange that this news story slipped passed me when it was broadcast by the british media in 2007..
Just for the record - how did he manage to get off with no jail time in the first place?
I think I can already guess how he managed to get off without being disfellowshipped.

Do the people in that congregation even know?
the watchtower september 1, 2010 11. .
the dangers of being deceived (page 10/11).
to deceive, says one dictionary, means to cause to accept as true or valid what is false or invalid.
Nothing new - they shamelessly published a long article on Jim Jones and The Peoples Temple suicides (back in the day) warning about the dangers of blindly following dangerous religious cults.
I kid you not - more than one fairly regular witness mentioned that this seemed a little odd, given that JWs did some pretty cult-like things.
What if someone needs a good swift kick in the ass? Got a thread for that?
TheMadJW has about a 20 pager going that qualifies -

OK, thanks St Anne - I have just been keeping up with whatever one is the last on current topics.
I would also be interested in knowing how this became such a sensation in the San Antonio local media.

You know, it would be very useful if some moderator could combine the three (or maybe more) threads that this thing has caused.
I for one would like to know just exactly how this guy came to be caught by the police. I somehow don't think he just confessed to them -
