Rate JW's out of 10 compared to other religions.
by Essan inso most of us here have been jw's or have read enough to have a decent grasp of the religion.
while we were there we were told jw's were the happiest, most righteous, best dressed, most polite, helpful people and our religion the purest and most accurate for of christianity in the world.. most here now would say all that probably wasn't entirely true.
lol.. if you have had exposure to other religions before or since where do you rate jw's overall compared to these religions?

This is interesting but difficult. I've been around a number of religions that I have good memories of, but I never learned anything. On the other hand I was never exposed to high control measures that acted to prevent learning. It was mostly just about doing good, enjoying the music and $$$$. The dubs woke me up to that nonsense of the other denominations, but kept their own nonsense hidden. So in some areas I rate them very high but in others very low - even in minus territory as has been suggested.

This isn't a topic about replacing paganism. It's about Christianity.
Looking at the map, the most violent places seem to be hotbeds of islam and whatever they do in Africa.

Psychopathy and Corporations
by Aussie Oz ini remember seeing a documentary a while ago about how legally, corporations are a 'person' and as such demonstrate a psychopathic personality.. the author of the book it was based on profiled criminal psychopaths and corporations and found them to be of the same mentality and motive of operation.. anyone else remember this?.
i feel it goes a long way to demonstrate why the watchtower corporation(s) has become the monster it is and why acts as it does, why it matters not what any individual or group thinks and why it will stomp on people to stay in its power.. the articals are pretty long but the links should start you off!.
i am really interested to know what others think.... http://www.cqs.com/psycho.htm.

I used to work for a man who was fond of saying, "The only thing that matters to me is how much money I can make today."
It was like he wasn't human. The only thing that mattered in his pursuit of wealth was whether something was legal.
But he had no more concern for customers or the people worked for him than I have for cock roaches.
The only thing that mattered was whether they could contribute to his bottom line.
And that's what corporations are in business to do. They have no conscience. They only have Mission Statements that give
lip service to all but major shareholders and that have nothing to do with what's best for employees.
That's why they've got "Human Resourse Depts." I think they ought to be called "Human Tool Depts,"
But that wouldn't go down very well. They have to act like "We Care."

"High-Control Groups"
by Consfearacy inhttp://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/similar-religions-to-jehovahs-witnesses.php .
"it is important to understand that in most bible-based cults, although the member is aggressively taught doctrine, it is not the doctrine that holds him in the group.
it is the sense that the group is god's true people, a feeling cultivated by techniques of mind control.

I'm not sure what the point of this thread is except that there are many groups who consider themselves exclusive. But there's a statement in the Declaration of Independence that states that established governments derive their power from the consent of those being governed. That is an absolute. People who feel that there is some benefit to their governance continue to go along with the abuses and hypocrisy until it reaches a point where they rebel. And there's not a dub who doesn't see it. But since organized opposition within jwland is impossible, that in itself is the defining evidence of its control and cult status as any opposition to official positions, stated or not, is ruthlessly eliminated. So thinking of some kind of reform is wishful thinking. It has to be destroyed in order to break the mental control of the "trojan horse" virus. But as long as they keep their numbers up - I agree that engaging them in Biblical issues is futile, because their understanding imposed by the trojan horse trumps reality. The only thing that can change it is a reboot of the individual's brain. But it's impossible at a group level any more than prison riots meet with long term success. Once someone has escaped, or if they want to be like a runaway slave they can be helped via the internet underground railroad. Just my two cents.

No I didn't wander into the wrong topic. I knew it would take a little mental flexibility - but the point is - what is going to happen to western civilization when Christianity has been replaced - by muslim and libertarian/liberally enlightened philosophies that choose a morality of their own liking that needn't feel bothered by anything called a conscience which Christianity and the Bible have upheld and taught about the consequences for it's wilfull violation on personal and cultural levels, with one example after another. And the decent to those depths of depraviity that result from not having a biblically trained Christian conscience is in free fall. And the end of the road is completely predictable from the pages of Scripture.
Col 2:8 "Take heed lest there shall be any one that maketh spoil of you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ:" ASV

Why conservatives are abandoning the 'gay' issue
Posted: August 17, 2010
1:00 am Eastern© 2010 WorldNetDaily
"Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?" – 1 Corinthians 6:19 NKJV
Sex is sacred.
For millennia, this biblical principle was the bedrock moral value of the Western World.
The mysterious portal through which human beings enter this world, sex was to be reserved exclusively for a man and a woman joined permanently by marriage vows, and all other forms and circumstances of sexual expression were forbidden – locked away, as it were, in a sort of Pandora’s Box, heavily guarded by the sentinels of Judeo-Christian Civilization. Confining sex to marriage was universally seen as essential to strong marital unions and secure families, and thus to the very fabric of civilization itself.
However, this strict but divinely inspired and life-protecting moral code – after enabling century after century of dazzling societal evolution in the Western world – has unraveled in our own lifetimes.
The change first emerged into stark public view during the 1960s under the banner of "sexual liberation" and "gay liberation." While the public was distracted by colorful spectacles of youthful rebellion, psychedelic drug use and the rock "invasion," just below the surface a full-bore assault on Western institutions and values – particularly traditional sexual morality – was taking place.
As I show in "How Evil Works," the well-documented leftist infiltration and subversion of virtually all of America's institutions during the last two to three generations has included, front and center, the sabotage of traditional morality and religion. After all, from the Marxist perspective, if you're serious about transforming America – from a land of limited government and individual liberty rooted in a transcendent, faith-based moral code to a population of compliant, needy people dependent on a god-like government – you simply must separate the population from Judeo-Christian values and morality. As John Adams put it: "It is religion and morality alone which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand."
Today, a half-century after the tumultuous '60s, what began then has evolved to heights and depths of sexual anarchy and depravity simply unimaginable to previous generations. It's as though some of us sneaked up to Pandora's Box, killed or seduced the guards, broke the locks, opened the box wide and blew up the lid. And the sexual genie, once restrained but now liberated, has penetrated virtually all areas of life and conjured up an ongoing societal transformation.
Find out how corruption and tyranny are being packaged, perfumed and gift-wrapped – and sold to Americans as though they were wonderful! Read David Kupelian's culture-war classic "The Marketing of Evil" and his just-released sequel, "How Evil Works."
We've progressed way beyond free sex. News reports today showcase an epidemic of school teachers having sex with their underage students, teen "sexting" and rampant middle-school "hookups," transgenders marching in parades proudly displaying their surgically mutilated bodies, and ever-increasing tolerance of adult-child sex.
Perhaps most troubling – at least in terms of its potential to shred the fabric of Judeo-Christian civilization – is so-called "same-sex marriage." The God-ordained union of man and woman, the wellbeing of children (who need both father and mother), the soundness of the family as the basic "cell" of a strong and healthy body politic – all this vanishes when the sacredness of marriage is violated and mocked.
As I will shortly explain, if same-sex marriage becomes the law of the land, moral confusion will dominate our culture, polygamy and other aberrant forms of "marriage" will quickly follow, traditional Christianity will be essentially criminalized, and much more. In a word, America will become unrecognizable............."
