  Old time JW's did some very devout JW's refuse to eat pizza with pepperroni because they believed "blood" was in the pepperroni?

  i have never heard this before until i read a life story of an ex-jws and how some jws in the past refused to eat pepperoni pizza because they thought blood was in pepperoni.

  i do know some elderly jw sisters would complain about eating steak if it bled while cooking.

  has anybody else heard of this pizza nonsense?.

  I love the: "They'd lose their beautiful humility" bit. Sorry but there is nothing beautiful about that.
  
  Actually if you treat your wife as an equal she might gain some "beautiful humidity"...

  Is "full-time service" a cult within a cult?

  by brokethechain in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  according to the bite model, mind control groups keep their members busy, tell them they are special, have special lingo, etc.. doesn't that make "full-time ministers" into a deeper level of mind control?

  it's a "special privilege" to be among those "ranks", there are extra meetings "anual pioneer meeting", "pioneer school", and a whole other level of guilt/indocrination/control for keeping pioneers/bethelites busy.

  as "examples", they shouldn't socialize too much, they shouldn't miss field service groups, they should start their time early, they should study all the publications, etc.

  I see it more as special previledge membership one should aim for. Trying to be part of an elite. Even within an exclusive group, one needs people to look down upon.

  Did you feel guilty for not pioneering?

  by brokethechain in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i started pioneering the month i finished high school, and never stopped until i awakened, 17 years later.

  it seems like the entire time, there was so much emphasis on pioneering.

  every field service meeting seemed to have a part that communicated the message that jehovah would zap us at the big a. or people would die because of us if we didn't have extenuating circumstances (i always translated as bad health or kids, but even then, there were always "examples" of the mom with 5 kids that was pioneering).

  I could not imagine doing more than 60 hours a month. But I aux pioneered every month for about a year after high school.
  I really felt then I should do more, but I know I phisically/mentally could not do more.
  Keeping you felling guilty for not doing more is one of them jedi mind trick they use a lot.
