  so a few months ago, i was searching the internet for "exit counselors", and i came across an interesting article about the psychological affects of religious cults in general... i then started to take down some notes so i could go back and research later.... this morning, i was looking at those notes which included a top 7 list of the most psychologically damaging sects or cults (according to the opinion of certain people in this very limited field)... here's that list:.

  jehovah's witnessesexclusive brethren (taylorites)scientologymooniesthe truth (cooneyites)amishmormonsnow i can't find where i got this information from but if anyone has any relevant or current information about this, please let me know.... thanks!.

  I would think Mormon's would be higher on the list. I guess they aren't totally isolationist like the JW's are.

  What did the Watchtower really predict about 1914 ?

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in zions watchtower 1896 december 15th, russell's comment on an article in the n.y observer which rightly cast doubt on the imminent formation of a jewish state in these words:.

  come, and that although palestine will again become cultivated.

  and prosperous, to the jews it may alwavs be a land of promise.".

  Could you imagine if the chance made about 1914 teaching happened during the time of the internet?

  "Yeah so 1914 wasn't the start of the great tribulation... it was... it was the start of the last days. Yeah! That's the ticket!"

  "Well where is Jesus? You said he was going to return in 1914."

  "Yeah he did return... but it was invisibly. Yeah you can't see him. He's totally there though."

  My story so far

  by brainmelt in

  2. friends

  i've been trying to avoid posting this, due to extreme paranoia but its time to post my story.

  i hope to not post too many details, as we've avoided being df so far, our group elder was young and lovely and cool and i just hope that in time he learns the ttatt.. i'm a regular lurker on here, occasional poster (i can't post much as my phone browser only lets me read but not post, so i only post on the odd occasion i get a time alone on the pc).

  i have been fading since round about last september ( so almost my first anniversary of learning ttatt).

  Are JWs creationists?

  by Jeffro in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if you believe what is officially stated on the jw website, jws are not creationists.

  .

  the fact that the exact jw belief is in fact specifically called "day-age creationism" seems to have alluded them.

  They mean that they aren't young earth. Although they sort of shift back and forth on this it seems.

  I enjoy reading Cracked all though sometimes you need to take what their writers say with a grain of salt.

  researching polytheism of the Jews

  by DeWandelaar in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i was researching the history of the jews and in wikipedia it is said that in origin the jews were polytheists by default and became monotheist in a later period of time.

  i was not aware of this (neither do many others) and am therefore putting some of my findings here:.

  first of all the obvious things.

  The old testament makes a lot more sense when you look at it in the context of polytheism.

  Did the Serpent Lie?

  by CyrusThePersian in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in john 8:44 jesus is quoted as saying that the devil is a "liar and the father of the lie.

  " an obvious reference to the serpent story in genesis chapter 3.

  (the johannine community, responsible for the gospel of john, the epistles of 1, 2, 3 john and revelation, was among the first to equate the serpent of genesis with satan, see rev.

  The serpent was a revolutionary, revolting against a horrible tyrant.
