When I was an "active" Witness, I was told that Disney movies were bad because the movies had *magic* in them, and, also, *bestiality* because, you know, Beauty fell in love with the beast, and they kiss frogs and stuff like that there. . .It's just wrong man, you see. . .Avatar has turned humans in to beasts. That's *bestiality*! Porneia! You see?

Four die out in service in Texas
by TJ - iAmCleared2Land ina real tragedy here yesterday; regardless of our feelings about the religion itself, we lost some good friends and genuinely nice people yesterday; these were some of "the good ones"--why is it always them??.

southlake four people died saturday after their car flipped over into a six-foot-deep pond in southlake, police said.. just before 11:20 a.m. saturday, the toyota sedan drove through the intersection of lonesome dove road and burney lane, crashed into a metal fence, hit a tree, and landed upside-down in a pond on the grounds of a mansion.. "they came through this stop sign and, from eyewitness accounts, they never slowed down," said neighbor byron copeland.. copeland said the residents of the property raced to try and help.

I remember a very elderly sister that would still go out in field service and she would DRIVE her old Volvo. She was a sweet, hilarious, and tough old lady. That being said, her driving would scare the hell outta Mr. Magoo! Whoo! She had no business driving. There are many Witnesses with health problems that should not be driving; but they feel like they have to get out there and make those hours. It's pretty sad. Whenever I hear things like this, I cringe for my own Witness daughters. What can we do or say? Nothing!

Mine's looks like a blob, with an elephant's nose, and a spider's legs, and some kind of alien antenna. I think it's road kill or something like that there or possibly Modern Art.

by MsDucky ini just wonder why so many want to go back or have serious issues about leaving.

Robdar, it's like you know that you're suffering but you don't want to question the authority figure for fear of death. It's, definitely, a dysfunctional situation.

“They weren’t bad people. They let me eat, they let me sleep, they gave me my life”
— A hostage from Flight 847
One way of describing this site would be “strange beliefs people have and how they got them.” A curious footnote that doesn’t seem to fit in nicely on any of the other pages is a phenomenon known as the Stockholm Syndrome.
In the summer of 1973, four hostages were taken in a botched bank robbery at Kreditbanken in Stockholm, Sweden. At the end of their captivity, six days later, they actively resisted rescue. They refused to testify against their captors, raised money for their legal defense, and according to some reports one of the hostages eventually became engaged to one of her jailed captors.
This struck some folks as weird, and as a way of coping with this uneasiness, as they started seeing more examples they named this class of strange behavior the “Stockholm Syndrome.”
Notorious in the United States is the case of Patty Hearst, who after being kidnapped and tortured by the Symbionese Liberation Army, took up arms and joined their cause, taking on the nom de guerre of “Tania” and helping the SLA rob banks.
The Stockholm Syndrome comes into play when a captive cannot escape and is isolated and threatened with death, but is shown token acts of kindness by the captor. It typically takes about three or four days for the psychological shift to take hold.
A strategy of trying to keep your captor happy in order to stay alive becomes an obsessive identification with the likes and dislikes of the captor which has the result of warping your own psyche in such a way that you come to sympathize with your tormenter!
The syndrome explains what happens in hostage-taking situations, but can also be used to understand the behavior of battered spouses, members of religious cults, Holocaust victims, household pets, and perhaps even users of Internet Explorer. I think it may also help explain the popularity of government and of the mass institutionalization of young people.
