No other options = The conclusion THEY want you to reach.
They only offer the "other" options to lull you into thinking you're not being forced to choose THEIR option.
Classic mind control.
this is going to be another memorial invitation thread.. before i get to the topic at hand, i want to quickly sound off on the invitation itself.
i had seen it online weeks before the jws came with a special invitation, so the content wasnt really news to me.
however, when i held it in my hand, i couldnt help but be disgusted by the joke of an invitation that flimsy small piece of paper was.. if you are going to invite strangers to the biggest celebration of your religion, please do not hand out what looks like pieces of scrap tissue paper.

i was just directed to a great website lettersofnote.com that contains many famous and interesting letters.
one is from huxley to orwell, and displayed at 1984 vs brave new world.
huxley made the following prediction in 1949 on how a government can control its followers, which seems to align with the methods used by the governing body.. .
@jwfacts: No, Not pushing it at all, they force feed us by cramming "love" down our throats.
@00DAD: I agree, everything is set in place for conditioning, and if we don't get every part it doesn't work. Meat-ing just don't have the same effect if you aren’t there for the first note of the song to the amen of the closing prayer; just like hypnosis doesn't work if you miss any part of it.
The bad part is these Four generations don't even make up ONE of wash-towels generations!
Maybe instead of a generation spanning fourty years their's span 400 years.
Man I want some of what they've been smokin'.
Damn, I was hoping it was true so I didn't have to sit through the insufferable un-special talk.

when i was in, articles like this always used to rub my cognicent dissanence the wrong way .
how can jw's and other fundamentalist religion's except adam and eve as the start of all mankind some 6000 years ago?.
They don't have to explain anything, they're witlesses and we all know God's people never get anything wrong, so whatever they say is right even if their is no evidence and it makes no sense at all.

my husband and i had a nice visit with frank toth at grace gough's home.
it was great.
he has written a few things.
i told my son that the society is reducing the size of their public edition from 32 pages to 16 pages.
he asked if they will now call it "half awake!".
of course, it could be "half asleep!
Asleep At The Wheel
Caption: Tired and still driving around trying to find jayhoover's damn king-dumb off the bad directions jeebus left.
i can rememebr many such silences growing up in the wt.
one that comes to mind was back in the mid 80's.
i was a young twenty something fellow and had gone to the dc in fresno, ca with my parents and my brother.
If you want to see awkwardness and silence in action just attend a co-ed witless gathering.
It makes an uncomfortable middle school dance look like a rockin' time.
