This one is the bomb!
Nice job.

The BEST way to "wake up" a JW
by Phizzy inwe have debated this over many years and in many threads, as all of us have family and/or former friends still in.
it seems that there is no "best" way to wake up a jw, it is as elusive as the "true" religion it seems.. but a comment made by poster "emery" on another thread stood out to me, he/she said :.
"what i have gathered is that most witnesses seem to be in it for emotional reasons.

SAHS, your parents have it exactly reversed. Apostates have no authority to “beat” JWs. Disagreeing with JWs is not beating JWs. Those that “beat” others Mt 24:48-50 refers to is those in a position of authority that have the power to wield punitive damage judicially, inflicting damage publicly as in a sentencing.
What are they exercised about? It’s, “faithful” to the Bible, who is? “Gentile times”2520 years is wrong, time of kingdom rule is wrong, understanding of “born again” is wrong, and their two tier system of Christians (A-grade and B-grade) is wrong, as well as, their incoherent “master delay” stupor, like a “drunkard,” publishing dates 1914, 1919, 1925, and 1975 for the “masters arrival” are all wrong.
The JW GB vigilante justice is unprecedented. In principle, it’s the “unfaithful” servant footprint and they deserves to be “cut him off” with the “hypocrites.”

Sure, emotions are at the core of dysfunction. But the JW syndrome is typical. Exchanging one support system for another ain't easy. That's the same issue with high recidivism inmates.a
Really, all of us are "stuck" (except Satanus, Tater-T, jgnat ) trapped in some ecosystem distortion of reality. Blowing winds of ideological change determines how the majority traverse the meandering road of reality. JWs are the piñata today. Tomorrow's piñata is inevitable.
Interesting, "the theory of everything" rubric is more and more plausible; EVERYONE will have to adjust to some difficult rude awakening.

The Gentile Times Reconsidered (607 B.C.E.) -Part A1 - Jeremiah 25:10-12 Reviewed
by FaceTheFacts induring the last three to four months, i have spent a great deal of time sinking my teeth into various critical biblical commentaries and lexicons.
naturally, after beginning to research "the truth about the truth" one of the most commonplace yet controversial arguments revolve around the "gentile times" doctrine (i.e.
the application of the seven times of daniel 4 from 607 b.c.e.

Let’s be real. Several people can get under the skin with rants. What happens when they rant? They sputter a bit, people ignore them, then they go away till their next rant. So they’re tolerated. FTF (aka whatever) is a brash eccentric. But, what make him intolerable is his argumentsare are cogent. He makes you think. Something the JW GB also fears the most.
Ignore FTF and he will go away. Instead of being knee-jerk, folks should acknowledge if his arguments have merit or not. Secure people should make their augment strong, one way or the other, and then move on. Others of us can weight both sides and make an intelligent decision. Remember, it’s OK if someone does not agree with your argument. Also, over time positions can change. It’s call growing.
I believe his brashness signal that he has some inferiority issues. But, his skills are a valuable asset, a beneficial data resource with time to rearch. Worst case scenario with him? We simply agree to disagree, next subject.
One more thought: FTF does not run in JW status quo circles. He’s a uncontrollable loose cannon that’s tangential somehow, non-threatening to JW mainstream intelligentsia. Otherwise he would an ex-JW. Bet’cha. Brash loose canons are way too risky.
