  i remember as a child in the 1980's attending four day conventions.

  i know in the past conventions were even longer.

  does anyone know how long they use to last and the approximate years?

  Attention Lurkers- the Paradise Resort Bus

  imagine boarding a bus with your family for a long anticipated vacation.

  the destination is a place that is promised to be beautiful warm and sunny.

  as you are boarding the bus you are given a ticket stub with several paragraph's of fine print.

  Mr. Coffee

  does anybody remember the old apostate guy they called mr. coffee?

  back in the late 80s when i was at brooklyn he would dress in a suit, have a book bag, and come and stand in front of the 124 bldg or sometimes over by the towers hotel.

  he'd easily put in auxillary pioneer hours.

  What Makes a Person Vulnerable to Join a Cult ? By Steve Hassan

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  most of us often wonder with amazement how we ever got caught up in the jehovah's witnesses mind control after having been out for awhile.

  and we still wonder how some of our relatives stay trapped inside it.

  well, steve hassans book " releasing the bonds " explains briefly in chapter 4 how it can happen.

  In memory of...

  by hartstrings in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was reviewing some ex-scientology sites and on one site they have a "morgue.

  " in it, they give the names of all the people who have died due to scientology.

  it made me think that it would be neat if we could set up a "in memorium" board for all those who have lost their life due to jws screwed up policies - blood, organ failure, suicide, etc.
