I think the worst type of liar is the one who manipulates you into thinking and believing utter nonsense. I don't think everyone can help it. I am old and I never looked at this information because I was afraid of "apostates". I didn't recognize I was in a cult. Many people don't. Steve Hassans books on cults were helpful to me.

I see this has been viewed 91 times. I don't know the answer to your question, and apparently no one so far knows either. Sorry.

This is a terrible thing your mom is doing to you and your family. I am sorry to hear of it. You are doing the right thing in removing yourself from this kind of abuse.

On The Art Of Fading
by expatbrit inin october of 2000, i faded away from the watchtower.
like most people, i have family and friends who are jw's (including my wife and parents).
fading is generally the best method for people in that situation.

Went to a strange funeral today
by startingover inwent to a funeral today for a lady that has not been associated with the jw's for many years, and her husband has probably just been on the fringe of association, their children have been out for a long time.
so they had the funeral at a funeral home, the place was full of family, jw's and other friends.
in the newspaper obituary they referred to it as a celebration of life.

I don't know what it means to "bookmark", I thought that had to do with sharing it on facebook. And I thought the btt was so that it WOULD go in your own "topics posted to" but after you post to a million topics, how will you find a comment made on a thread that is not the title of the thread? Is there some instructions here that I have missed? Is it perhaps better not to make remarks on a thread to which you do not intend to return? (So that you aren't cluttering up your "topics posted to")
It's just that I see those with THOUSANDS OF POSTS!!!!!
I am just trying to figure out how you can retrieve information that you have already accessed.

Watchtower Fallout
by gitasatsangha ini'm trying to come up with a list of various non-jw and russellite groups.
it's already pretty much established that the jw claim of being unified is hogwash, but this information should be itneresting.
if anyone has anything not here, or more information please post it.
