Paul was just one of many hijackers. His writings worked best to keep people under control as far as Constantine felt.

Did Paul Invent Christianity?
by smmcroberts ini think the answer is largely yes.
please read my latest blog and see if you agree.. the witnesses had better stock up on goats and stones to make up for lost time!.

god
by dog is god inso if god is uber everything, knows it all from before the beginning, has no "issues", than god must be one solid self sustaining individual.
so then why does god need all this adoration, worship, human suffering, demanding we not enjoy life but wait for total annialation?
if this is true than god is one big hot mess of sh-t..

I know how you feel. My mom sort of dissapeared mentally and all she could do was talk about the "truth". I mean it. It ate away everything she was. She wasn't outright mean but kind of sugar-coated arsnic. It's all poison. I took care of her and was with her when she died. The cong she had been in forgot about her. assh..es. Those NY guys should be nailed to a pole/cross/xylon whatever they dub it....they deserve it.

Any born-ins have this attitude about converts?
by Nambo inso there was this great gang of us, from south london, manchester and wolverhampton, went to socialise with a group in fishguard in wales.. amongst the conversations one of the single sisters stated, "i could never marry anybody who used to be in the world".. i guess a lifetime of knocking on doors had given her the impression there couldnt possibly be a convert in her midst, never mind later alone with her in her mgb.. so whats with this, did you think we had rat scabies or were possesed by demons or something?.

At least the green book was written in four part harmony and there were chorists at big assemblies. As for the brown. "Pease without end, at last" I liked (my own version). They have the absolutely worst song writers and arrangers ever, ever, ever!!!!!!!

All of the above. Most of all, feeling lonely. There were two girls that were in my cong one or two yrs older than me. I was excluded from their friendship. Just being alone and not able to go anywhere with anyone. As a kid youre not included in the adult world and the two I could have been friends with didn't want to so just plain excluded in the borg and out. Just nowhere that I could "be". When my husband was "outed" it was a big secret the elders didn't want his reputation ruined. I'm pretty outgoing and friendly. They all assumed it was something I did. I divorced him. He was embraced I wasn't. He is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay OUT now. don't know if he has been disfellowshipped. I wonder if any of them think back about how unfair and mean spirited they were. Probably not. What is weird is that I know they are shi.heads but I still have affection for them. What is that? Stockholm syndrome. Great life pattern....I love you....you exclude me. Shitheads. I wouldn't treat an animal like that.

Is the Watchtower Corporation guilty of purposely infusing a overwhelming amount of fear to control people ?
by Finkelstein inif you were to pin point out the workings of the wts., of what attracts people to the.
organization and what is the catalyst that controls them once.
they are inside of it, the conclusion would most likely be drawn that fear is the paramount.
