Outrage
by paulvarjak inthis morning, i awoke and read discussions on this board from ones who were frightened by the events of the week, who are still manipulated by longheld jw beliefs to see this as a sign and i was outraged.
when i began to read my sunday paper, i was further outraged by the tragedy in new york, washington d.c. and pittsburg and the following statements from dr. david skidmore, professor of political science and international relations at drake university.
commenting on the assumption of arab nations he stated that in the arab mind "the united states is all-powerful, is in control and dictates things...if something happens, it is because the united states wants it.".

Mind Control Cults
by paulvarjak injust re-reading steve hassan's book "combatting cult mind control" and the following struck me.
relating how he recruited persons in conjunction with their personality types while a part of the moonies, he states the following:.
"we saw believers as people searching for god, or looking for spiritual meaning in their lives...it was always amazing to me to realize how many people in this category told us they had just been praying to god to show them what he wanted them to do with thier lives.
