  Cult or High Control Group?

  by MillennialDawn in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i see this phrase a lot: "the indication of a cult is what happens when you leave.

  " i'm not sure where that originated, but it is a faulty categorization.

  "cult" is almost always used in a derogatory way.

  The JWs could be potentially a lot worse with their harmful and abusive policies.

  I tend to think its the laws of the land which prevents the Borg from implementing more harsh and severe disciplinary measures for its victims,,I mean members

  When you see such eronious passages in the Bible,,it begs the question;; How can people put their lives on the line? Especially when it comes to a deadly blood doctrine?

  When the life you are experiencing right now,,this very day is the only guaranteed life you have.

  As opposed to something perpetually '''soon"" or ""near"". Something which may happen someday.

  It just baffles me how the vast rank and file JWs cant realize all of this.

  Suicide pacts carried in your wallets and purses? For yourself and children?

  Thats an interesting way of looking at it.

  Hailstones?

  by NotFormer in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when i was interested in things jw two decades or so ago, i never came across these mentions of hailstones.

  it crops up so often now that it's almost a meme!

  when did it become a thing in jw speak, and what does it refer to?.

  Should the Borg move with this hailstone message and go with the judgement message,,,they're stuck with it. There's no going back.

  After months,,then years then decades go by and no big 'A',,,they're stuck with the judgement message.

  Thats why the constant ramped-up anticipation of the big "A",, to keep the victims on edge.

  Theres NO going back after the judgement message.

  LHG:

  I do believe that the mindset of JWs,,is on parallel with the Jonestown.

  Its evident with how they practice.

  I cant see 8 plus million people drinking poison-laced kool aid all at once.

  But the mindset is there. Minds held captive to these 9 grifters in New York hanging on every word they say.

  An observation from this video.

  In Deuteronomy,,Moses passes away and I believe he doesn't make it to the "promised land"

  The NWT,,or it is claimed Moses wrote the pentateuc or the first 5 books of the bible.

  If this is the case,,how can Moses talk about his own death? And talks about where he is burried. How can someone talk about their own death and where they're burried?

  Since the Borg claims the Bible is Divine inspired,,,this is where the headaches from cognitive dissonance kick in.

  Before you lay your life on the line,,,,like for a deadly blood policy,,,consider,,is this from a Bible which is Divine inspired?? Or just from a bunch of grifters making man-made rules as they go along?
