what is a cult and what is a religion?
its open to debate.
who has the authority to say for certain what is a cult and what is a religion?
The clincher for me (as far as JWs being a cult) is that you can't make a conscientious decision to leave without losing your friends, family, everything. You can't just walk away.
All the other stuff they do, the behavior control, information control etc. . . there are lots of groups that employ these tactics, and persons may or may not consider them cults.

Ok. So yes, I have read through this thread.
I have some thoughts on this.
However, due to the fact that I have a self-imposed ban regarding commenting on this genre of thread.. . . .

MORPHEUS - no problem. Got the goods!
88JM, MARVIN - Yes! These things are no good without the BLUE ENVELOPE.
PHIZZY - Well. . . . let's see. .. . what can I say. . . .
A "curious family situation" arose where I thought this form would be appreciated.
I assure you that no one will be harmed in the use of this form. All for fun.
When I can, I will definitely tell the full story! Stranger than fiction.

just a total speculative thought i had.
with branches getting cut, special pioneers getting sacked, and bethel members going byebye, is there a need for gilead still?
(co's are probably on the block too lests be honest).. if they got rid of that i feel that would be huge.
I got blue as a "make-up" present :
Someone in my family kind of screwed me over (just a bit!), but realized it quickly, and wanted to make things right. . . .
"Awwww. . . you didn't have to. . . but you did. . . I'd be happy to accept this--- all is forgiven!"
Blue is good stuff.

I just discovered Islay Scotch about a month ago and bought my first bottle of Laphroaig a couple of weeks ago. That smokey pete moss flavor is really awesome!. . . . . ..
Johnny Walker Blue is my favorite. I had to quit cigars completely. I would have one, then two, and the next thing I know I'm smoking cigs. O well, every man must know his limits. . . . .
any takers?
we can pick a date and pull the plug?
lol .
just heard from a reliable source that some at the canadian branch have received their lay-off notices under their doors at bethel.
don't know what the letter looks like.
probably something like, " the tribe has spoken, bring us your torches"
Holy shit!
I've been away from the board for only a couple of hours and the whole goddamned thing is lit up!
