do they "mystically manipulate"people joining them?.
im inclined to say they dont.. they are almost unique in this.. practically every cult ive joined, i could recite a litany of manipulation techniques applied to me during my joining process.. the dubs study with people, systematically, unemotionally.. noone else does this in my experience.. people who join the dubs join under "intellectual conviction".. do you agree with this view or not??.
im most curious to hear opinions on this.
Hi Frenchy,
Well said.

the technical literature on cults reckons that stress is a big factor in cult conversion.. a lot of cults induce varied emotional states within recruits,.
they artificially generate conflict in the minds of the recruits.
in fact, of the ones ive seen, most of them do in some way or other!.
Flower,
Talk about being under stress.
HAHAHA
I like it.

i would just like to thank everyone for the excellent posts that have appeared here on this site.
i esp would like to thank simon for making this possible.
i sincerely believe that the "net thang" will continue to play a role in helping jw who are sincerely searching for a confirmation that all their doubts and wondering over the years was not the result of them being spiritually weak.

Hello Gurdeep,
It's a pleasure to have you on the board.
It's always interesting to hear the thoughts of one
from another part of this small world.
You've said something that we all would do well to contemplate.
You said, " Do you congratulate yourself with a lucky birth? "
Something to think about.
