Anyone used Steve Hassans techniques to successful get a JW to see TTATT
by Frazzled UBM ini am back online (sitting in the cathay lounge on my way to sydney) after a week with my wifes dysfunctional jw family in the rural philippines.
thanks to your recommendation i have been reading steve hassans book and it has been very helpful for improving my communications with my wife by making me understand what will keep conversations going and what will shut them down.
it has also helped me to understand what is going on with her.

I remember exactly what I would have thought when I was in. I would have felt sorry for those who left the congregation and were living happy lives. I would have said that you were sacrificing your eternal life for a few short years of happiness in this wicked system of things. You are trying to make your own paradise now instead of waiting for Jehovah to make it a reality. I would have thought you fooled by Satan. I was deluded of course.
Glad for your happiness dear.

This is just another "privelege" they give the pioneers so they feel like one of the elite members of the organization.

Shunning for inactive ones?
by frogonmytoe ini visited my sister in a small town in the midst of the country, the town has a population of 3,000 and there's about 70 in the cong.
anyway, there was a local needs talk a few months ago about associating with family members who didn't live under your roof and no longer went to meetings.
one family of an elder dad and three sons (one an elder too, the others have stopped going) and a daughter (still going but married a 'worldly') are quite prominent and one half of a typical congregational feud.

They can do whatever they want to do. They think they are God's earthly visible organization. It's extreme thinking at its best.

Very succinctly put, Marvin. The Watchtower should know better than to put this in writting. This just shows how power mad they are.
