  thanks to online media of movies and books i've recently been watching the twilight series.

  issues of quality aside i enjoyed it enough.

  i mostly wanted to see what the fuss was about and have the fun of seeing a movie that was banned from the platform when it came out.

  Watch "The Giver" with a JW and check out the awkwardness as they notice the similarities between the Utopian society and WT.

  So then Richard what should the board focus on about the JWs? The organization pretty much exerts control over every baptized member, everything they do or say comes from the top down.

  This website and forum is a disorganised cult

  No, it's a voluntary web forum. You can leave and we won't make your family shun you.

  Is it any wonder people aren't listening to JWs anymore? What an absolutely delusional scene! A 17th century sailor comes into the truth, shaves his beard (apparently beards will still be bad in the new order), and befriends a mandarin speaking Chinese man. LOL This picture sums up the new WT style, nothing is too ridiculous to say or illustrate. They are targeting those with child like intellects ready to believe anything and everything.

  Banned from the second school!

  i've been told by a jw friend that when her hall recently had a refurb that big changes were made to the second school.. one, a large sign has been placed on the door telling people not to use it and to sit in the main hall itself.. two,that all the chairs which used to face the large windows looking into the main hall are now side on to the window facing the wall instead.. this is because "so many people were sitting out in there!

  people were finding all manner of exhuses to sit-in there and the brothers want us to all be together in the main hall!

  " she said.. of course i didn't tell her what i really thought of this but seriously?

  This is a new directive from the circuit overseer so that the hall looks more full and everyone is paying more attention. Used to be some groups would get together in the back and socialize for most of the meeting. Well, we can't have that now, can we?

  Could you please do "Walking By Faith, Not By Sight" next? That is by far my most hated WT propaganda film. Loved you're review of this one. Basically true love means someone who is loyal to the JWs. If they're not "spritual" the relationship will fail. Of course that isn't true but that's how WT presents it.

  you are delusional.

  meaning that you believe everything that the wt says 100% without questioning it all.

  you believe there is no other source of truth or valid view points.

  You are insecure and need to be reassured that you are doing the right thing on a frequent basis.

  Never thought about it like that but it's true. They like to reinforce that it is not actually a waste of time, that all the answers make sense. They set up arguments that they can refute but never delve into the deeper questions that expose the whole thing for what it is.

  Loyalty...When Is It Right or Wrong?

  you will remember the frequent exhortations to "maintain loyalty" to jehovah..a thinly disguised instruction to never question the wts.

  wt (simplified) 7/15 2011 pp10-16.

  "8] no matter what false teachers say, we will not follow them!

  This organization has never disappointed us and always gives us an abundance of pure waters of truth from God’s Word

  This a very odd sentence, they are telling 8 million people how they are supposed to feel. How can they say that no one has been disappointed? Why do some leave if they aren't disappointed by something?

  This week's resurrection video, will it backfire on the wt?

  the resurrection is supposed to be a joyous occasion?, if it ever happened!

  --well, this week's showing at the hall was the opposite, it was about death with violins playing in the background.

  a recently bereaved member, , full of tears, (like many others) could not contain herself.

  My wife couldn't watch it, got up and left. She didn't want to cry in front of people she felt were not supportive of her during her loss.

  1. You are delusional. Meaning that you believe everything that the WT says 100% without questioning it all. You believe there is no other source of truth or valid view points. Truth is absolute and is provided by the WTBS. These delusions make you content because you know in your heart the reward of everlasting life is coming...soon.
  2. You have many companions. Notice how I said companions and not friends? That's because these spiritual friends know that they would have to dump you at a moments notice if you had an original thought. That's okay though because at least you have gatherings to go to and people to talk to about superficial things.
  3. You don have any personal ambitions. Giving up a huge chunk of your time to organizational activities isn't really a big deal because you have no personal ambitions or desires anyway. Get a better job? No thanks, too much stress. Hobbies? That's a waste of time. Reading? Only the WT for me!
