Great observation LITS. That is exactly what they do. Darth Frosty: Excellent article!!!
Everything they do is to induce trance states and it starts with the children. The "spanking" that they deem as necessary play a HUGE part in inducing trances and setting up a lifetime of trance states which can be later induced. Trance states also stop cognitive development and maturity. Due to immaturity of the brain you cannot be loyal to two attachments at the same time and the WT sets itself up as each individual's attachment base rather than their family members. That is why they can shun their own parents and children. Thus - no birthdays, no holidays, sports - anything that causes a natural bonding with family. They use fear as well - when someone is in constant fear they cannot think and cannot grow.
They not only rip us apart from our families they rip us apart from ourselves. When you don't know yourself and cannot mature your body "speaks" for you by getting sick - physically or mentally as that is the only way your body can commmunicate with you. That is why there is so much mental illness, depression, cancer, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, suicide, etc. within the organization. Our bodies cannot get lulled into hypnosis like our minds. Our bodies speak for us.
Everything they do is based on psychological conditioning.
This information is out there. I hope all lurkers start researching this. It's time to start waking up. People's lives depend on it.
