""Beth am not familiar with B.I.T.E . What is this technique?

There is a cult expert in the USA with the name of Steven Hassan. When he was a young man he survived the Moonies cult,,,just a little about him.
Anyway,,,he is a cult expert who wrote 3 books. A little bit about the B. I. T. E. model. It is an acronym.
B - behavior conntrol
I - information control
T - Thought control
E - emotional control
Mr Hassan' studies on cults. He outlines perfectly you control group think by regulating cult members by controlling their behavior, information, thought and emotion by manipulating these 4 techniques by cult indoctrination. By what they watch, read, regulating sleep, regulating friends & through everything they do in life.

"JWs often try to justify their religion as being the only true religion. Questions like
Which other organization is doing this or that? Here is one from a JW. You may have others. "
That's one of the ''thought'' stopping techniques in the B. I. T. E. model. Thought - stopping techniques. We are right, everyone else is wrong and us vs. them.
One tool of the Borg's arsenal to shut-down people's thinking and questioning abilities. It disarms someone's ability to question and/or give a rebuttal to the Witness.

kingdom halls will be the thing of the past.. conventions (mini assembly halls will still be going on) but will charge for attending and parking and always a donation.

elders will play a much smaller role since csa.

cart preaching will replace door to door.

Of course. Of course. My bad. Sam Herd on the G.B. recently outlined on one of his talks that ''any day now'' the great tribulation will be here ushering in the big 'A'.

as a jw, did you ever know of totally unchristian behavior ( boners) by some "fine" witnesses?

i know of more than my fair share and will reveal some.

""Since I left a few years ago now I have been told of things that went on in local congregations, some of it from members of my own family. Yet they portray themselves as being so unlike the outside world. ""
That's just the ingrained us vs.them mentality which they are conditioned to believe in. It's almost tragic.

""Disillusioned JW Most JWs are not gonna abandon watchtower. Many in organisation are born in. Whole family is in. Is like does that hade to flee destruction of Jerusalem. They hade to abandon friend's, Family and business. Most JWs are not gonna be capable of that. They don't even read their bible anymore. Just thing's that come from GB ""
All PIMOs understand or believe what GB says or does is 'gospel'. They listen to the GB more than follow or read their bibles.

Where is Jehovah

during the massacre of many witnesses at a kingdom hall in germany the other night, where was jehovah's holy spirit ?

This is perfect double - speak.
The claim Jehovah protects his people. But when violence happens to ''His'' people it proves the times we live in.
Cognitive dissonance kicks in.

This ''1995 thing " has been talked about many, many times. And,,,,it will be always talked about. As a "key focal" point of many " wake-ups"" At first....it didn't really hit,,,until months & years after prolly around 1999-2000 or so. It was then , with the advent of the internet era,,, that I realized the Borg has been controlling and scaring good people with end of age,,fear-mongering propaganda since it's inception. Just making-up rhetoric as they go along....as people are scared into working for free.
