Maybe she will do a review show at the end of season three that has some sort of update on every cult or the victims she interviewed. Or maybe she will have Steven Hassan on again and he will freely speak about each of the cults she exposed.

Qrystal, I am not qualified to help you in any way, but I want to let you know my thoughts and concerns are with you. Please call a suicide prevention line and get professional help. I had a grandparent that lost a parent at your age and it stayed with her. In fact it makes you vulnerable, so please get help. For example, my grandparent joined the JWs at that time. Please call a prevention line. I wish I could hug you.

Science corner
by The Real Edward Gentry inon other boards and new sites they are talking about contact with aliens in the next 20 years.
i think that would be reckless and dangerous.
how could you tell if it was a genuine space alien and not a demon?

But the major, major puzzle is the 7% increase in baptisms after so many reports recorded small numbers baptised even at large conventions.
Exactly. What is this? Smoking gun that other numbers are massaged? I personally think so. There has been growth in my area in the 80s and 90s, but now the numbers, that a person can see when visiting various halls or talking to members, are comparable to the 1970s. We've lost a lot, which is great. But you would never know it from WT numbers.

Do they officially give marking talks without telling the one marked?
by Wakanda inmy pimi (physically in, mentally in) friend believes she was marked without them telling her.
i believe her, and she has been making work for the elders.
she is a pain in their arse, and they are a pain in hers, which is great.

Thank you all very much. I can't believe I thought they told the marked one. oh wait. I remember as a kid a friend telling me that they are about to mark her Mom. That was quite a while ago, and I'm sure WT changed for legal slimy reasons. So. Now I know I was definitely marked a while back. I could not convince my PIMI hubby because I DID ask an elder about it and he lied, lied, lied. I WAS quite bold! ;) I even believed him a little at the time, even though I was PIMO for a few months by then. The next Sat my hubby and I went out in service and I told him most everyone, including ALL the elders, were very cold. Hubby is clueless this way, very math like mind if that makes sense. Anyway, now I totally believe my PIMI friend and will give her as much support as possible. I really wish I could give more details, it is just SO unique!!! I have never read about the situation surrounding the marking here or anywhere else.
Thanks JP and others for the inside info!
Done, too funny.
Thank you all so much.

Jrjw,
First of all welcome!
I still look for truth, not the truth, and not in an organization.
It takes a while to work out the mind conditioning that there is an organization with "the truth". It is a control mechanism.
It is o.k., and you will be o.k.
Remember that the quote from the Bible is "who shall we go to?" NOT "where shall we go".
Hugs,
Wakanda

Adam and the Dinosaurs
by The Real Edward Gentry inhere is a fascinating subject.
according to the bible , one of adam's first assignments was to name all the animals including the sea creatures and dinosaurs of course.
we don't know how long this took but, as all witnesses know, the time period is crucial in working out the timing of armageddon).

Thanks all.
Fink, All too familiar with that stuff. My parents used that excuse to be lazy and not let us hang our with anyone. Well, except for people that lived far away and could not get together with us often. This talk was quite specific though, so much so that I cannot even mention the topic. Please except my apology.
More confused, thanks for the affirmation. This is leading to some major pre-shunning for my friend, and I have mixed emotions as it is hard for her. But, then it may help open her eyes.
Thanks Fred. Great name btw!
