  Don't Look Now, Our Slip is Showing!

  the wts in its march 22 issue of the awake!

  magazine describes the czech republic as now "one of the least religious countries in europe".. pointing to the decline in adherents in the roman catholic church from 4 million to 2.7 million in 10 years and 32 percent and 46 percent drops in the evangelical and hussite churches, it fails to inform its readers of the situation in the organisation known as jehovah's witnesses.. i wonder why?.

  cheers,.

  Of course not! That would be too honest!

  They're faltering in Slovenia, Slovakia, Poland, and the Czech
  republic.

  First, Israel is losing - and it scares them. All their
  weapons can't wipe out generations of suicide bombers.
  They are bleeding and getting desperate. They should
  encourage a deal with the Saudis to create a Palestinian
  state together with recognition of Israel by the whole
  Arab world. As things stand now, they will lose just as
  surely as apartheid did with its 'homelands'.

  Second, the U.S. has a great opportunity to create a
  swath of Islamic secular democracies if they take out
  Saddam Hussein. Imagine Turkey, Iraq, and Afghanistan
  putting pressure on Iran to dump their ugly theocracy.
  After that, you throw in the former Soviet states to
  the north - Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, etc. - and the
  Islamic world looks very different.

  Third, there will be unrelenting pressure to get rid
  of national currencies in favor of the dollar or euro.
  Canada and South America will be pushed into it.

  Finally, Africa has no future, period. I have doubts
  that even South Africa will make it. If I was African,
  I would do anything to emigrate to Atlanta - where
  opportunity abounds.

  Lying is Fun/North Korea

  by metatron in

  lying is so much fun - and so very convenient!.

  like "jehovah's witnesses are the happiest people on earth!".

  since this statement is made in response to a growing malaise.

  Like "Jehovah's Witnesses are the happiest people on earth!"
  Since this statement is made IN RESPONSE to a growing malaise
  in the organization, it is a pure lie - a problem develops,
  grows worse and gets noticed - so they just deny it!

  Why stop with this falsehood? Why JW's are the most educated
  people on earth, their leadership doesn't hide child molesters,
  and they are the most charitable people known!

  What this all sounds like is the response of another dismal
  dictatorship - North Korea. Bush showed up with a satellite
  photo of both Koreas at night - the South ablaze with electric
  lights and the North in darkness.

  The tyrants response? North Korea is a place where miracles
  happen - a worker's paradise where clouds spontaneously form
  into flower shapes at public celebrations. Amazing phenomena
  occur to mark the wisdom of the leadership.

  Moral: if anyone tries to sell you a paradise - whether spiritual
  or for workers, walk away ( better yet, RUN!). Telling lies
  is always easier than actually building paradise.

  free radicals are a natural product of energy production in the
  body. The question is: why body defenses aren't adequate to remove them.

  What is most important here is that science now understands the
  reason for the general damage of aging - free radicals in the
  cells mitochondria - that's where antioxidant therapies are being
  focused - and some of the new artificial antioxidants are quite
  promising.

  it seems new directions may be opening up for those who have been tricked by religion.

  did you sell your home before 1975 to pioneer?

  did you pioneer thinking the end would come within five years?

  no answers from me

  but maybe somebody could tell me why local witnesses
  in utica, ny scheduled a meeting - at the local Ramada Inn?

  I know they got reamed by the C.O. for selling a hall to local
  social welfare folks and then failing to build a new one.

  Founded on a Mental Illness

  the zeal and general character of witnesses is firmly.

  grounded in its encouragement of a kind of mental illness.. specifically, being obsessive-compulsive.

  once i started seeing this, things really fell into place.. it helped to explain so much behaviour that baffled me.

  I feel less depressed and angry at the world since I
  gave up on the organization - and less obsessed too.

  well, except for this stuff (it's therapy!)

  The zeal and general character of Witnesses is firmly
  grounded in its encouragement of a kind of mental illness.

  specifically, being obsessive-compulsive

  Once I started seeing this, things really fell into place.
  It helped to explain so much behaviour that baffled me
  before - that I observed among Witnesses.
  Such as:

  multiple personality disorders
  fear of germs and touching doorknobs
  self multilation disorder
  anorexia
  sexual obsessions (like Knorr, endlessly rambling about it)

  but these would just be the extreme 'tip of the iceberg'
  please consider meetings - are they boring and uninstructive?
  do you drift off during them?

  well, why bother to attend?
  you just 'have to' go!

  likewise, the imaginary 'ministry'
  are you really converting anyone? accomplishing anything?
  just selling magazines door to door? Why not stop?

  you can't - you just have to!

  and finally (mea culpa)
  if this compulsive nature has been deeply ingrained
  by Watchtower programming,
  you would logically expect that it would continue
  well after the person has lost all confidence in
  the organization....

  well, here we are - on the internet!
  how ironic - the Watchtower faced with a monster of
  its own creation!
