i read the above posted article and it made me wonder how many narcicistic people join the borg because it fits well with their personality.
i also wonder if being indoctrinated makes you become narcicistic.
Yes.
If you are THE CHOSEN PEOPLE of god, you can become narcissistic.
If you just made it out of High School, but are constantly told you have the BEST education in the world, you can become narcissistic. (partly a defense mechanism for knowing you are a loser)
If you are in the know and the rest of the world isn't. You can become narcissistic.
This effects most to some degree.
a kingdom hall near a small community called yelm was shot up.
yelm is where two kingdom halls where set on fire about a month ago.
i think someone, exjw, in that area is really pissed off..
When something Good happens = Jehovahs Blessing.
When something Bad happens = See we are the truth because Satan attacks us.
When NOTHING happens = God is blessing us and the activity.
WIN WIN WIN - all the time.
i was saddened to hear this ,she was only 69 yrs old and i thought she played a great lois lane in the superman movie.. in her life she obviously had issues to deal with and not the best of outcomes sometimes .. r.i.p.
margot kidder , 1948- 2018.
I was sad to see the news.
I also did not know she struggled for such a long time.
Very sad.
i have to say that the talk was very good.
instead of just repeating a jw manual , the speaker actually spoke about my brother!
there were a few scriptures with the jw hope but 80 % of the talk was actually about the life of my brother.
A few elders have the balls to be a human when giving a memorial talk.
I am glad you got one of them.
Sorry for your loss.
fantastic!
but why being shown in 4k for only 1 day?.

paranormal stuff is common where my family is from it's almost expected.

so i have seen stuff and experienced stuff.
Righ On Simon!
hi,i'm lost and a little sad.
i actually like the jw faith.
some might call this faith cold, strict, dogmatic but they're just trying to follow rules and give back to god.
Science has glossed over how consciousness and life entered the universe
No they haven't.
I'l accept the doctrines if I can prove the Governing Body is being led by God.
Which ones? They change the most important understandings ever other year.
Prophecies: I'm looking into this.
There is 0 evidence the bible actually predicted anything - no proof at all. In fact, all the evidence shows that every prophecy was written WELL after.
By the way - do you believe the bible when it said at a guy's Jackass started talking to him, and instead of running away scared shitless, he has an argument with it as if that sort of thing is normal? Reall??
at today's wt study about child baptism, someone commented and she pointed to the picture of the little girl playing with her teddy bear.
she said, 'she may be looking at her bear and thinking about getting to play with bears in the new system.
her parents notice this, and they decide since it's real to her she may be ready for baptism.
I find it funny how SOOO many JWs are all into Playing with the Animals in the "nude system" but hardly any visit zoos or know anything about animals?
just wonder what they teach in school for elders?
they always have this schools don't know if it's once a years or more.
just wonder what they learn.
I have been to many.
I found that what I learned most was how LITTLE many Elders knew about the WT teachings and simple procedure elders were to follow.
I LOVED when a prominent elder (who I knew was a self-righteous A-Hole) raised his proud hand when a question was asked, and then was embarrassed because it was wrong.
Then I was horrified that these IDIOTS were involved in judicial committees and were not even following the basic rules, and harming people even more than the CULT does already.
