  Unlocking Phobia's in JW's - Steve Hassan's " Freedom of Mind " book

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my wife and i finally finished steve hassan's latest book called " freedom of mind " so i wanted to devote one more thread to it in discussing how to recognize phobia's in witnesses or cult members and some methods hassan mentions to assist cult members.. on pg.

  146 hassan states, " a cult phobia is a man-made mental illness that is an integral part of destructive influence.

  a phobia is a persistent, irrational fear.

  larsinger and his posts got me to thinking about others that believe/believed that they are/were jesus.

  i started looking up a ton of info and stumbled across some pretty interesting cults.

  i just wanted to create a thread to talk about or post videos, links, or articles about modern day cults that you have found interesting.

  I could think of 4. one was an MS in his 30's, another was a woman who was a single mom who was having sexual relations with a "brother" After he dumped her and hooked up with another woman, this poor single mom ran in front of oncomng traffic and was hit by a truck going 80km/hr. Very sad! Another the disfelowshiped son of an elder. And the last was a man in his early 50's who's wife left him for his best friend (all were JW's) and drowned himself in a lake. There are several other stories I've heard of severely depressed JW's. The WT brainwashed ones would say stupid things like " Critical times hard to deal with are here" "proof that we are in the last days" or " Satan is working over time on J's people" The list of retarded sayings goes on and on.

  Ton Ten REASONS why Jehovah's Witnesses simply can't abide reality

  by Terry in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  1.the organization itself denies access to reality and substitutes its own version, interpretations and meanings.. a.only watchtower approved publications are allowed.. b.no higher education is to be pursued.. c.no non-jw friends or associations are encouraged with their "outside" points of view.. d.no free-style questioning of doctrine or criticism permitted.

  curiousity is verboten.. e.threat of being "marked" or disassociated looms over them.

  2.between every real-world event and the rank and file jw's mind is a roadblock.. a.the moment of identifying is short-circuited by an interpretive moment of re-labeling in watchtower-speak.. b.all things happening are forced into a narrow storyline and propagandized as end times happenings leading to armageddon.. 3.social and personal identity is expunged and replaced by a collective persona: "jehovah's witness".. a.private thinking is red-flagged as selfish and sinful.. b.personal improvement, welfare and ambition is crushed and door-to-door ministry substituted as "worthy" endeavors.. c.self-conscious obsession permeates witness awareness as each person is transformed into a public spectacle of performance for judgement.. d.since you aren't an individual you don't really have a right to fall in love and marry or educate or earn.

  let's assume, as most of you probably believe, that the anointed christians are not the fds.

  if the anointed are not the fds, who are?.

  Were dinosaurs part of a pre-Adamic "paradise"?

  by M.J. in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the wts seems to affirm a lot that adam's blunder really screwed up the earth, and that the earth was not meant to be this place full of killing, disease, death, pain, etc.. but according to the wts version of the story, did god create the earth with these types of features before adam even came on the scene?

  the wts does not deny the existance of dinosaurs, who in their words were created prior to mankind during the 5th or 6th symbolic day-ages.

  yet its clear from fossilized remains that dinosaurs killed each other, had a high mortality rate, often died young, suffered from disease such as cancerous tumors: .

  All I can say is........ Only in America would a "Creation museum with a full size Ark be built! Its so Laughable I wanna cry

  Actually, it may be a good thing to have another Ark built just in case big J feels like flooding and subsequently killing 99.9% of all life again.

  Hmm. the whole killing 99.9% of all life thing sounds familiar

  Sparlockgate - the YouTube copyright clampdown continues!

  by cedars in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  you may remember some time ago i released a song entitled "sparlock we love you" on youtube.. the song was a parody of the "become jehovah's friend" dvd, and became very popular - with well over 10,000 views last time i checked.. i did consider the possibility that the society would complain on grounds of copyright infringement, because i used some specially-altered versions of images on the dvd, such as the one below.... .

  however, i shrugged this off, because i thought even the society wouldn't be as petty as to publically complain about the way the images were used.. nevertheless, they did.

  today i got the following email.... dear john cedars,we have disabled the following material as a result of a third-party notification from watch tower bible and tract society of pennsylvanias, claiming that this material is infringing:.

  Good News to Make You Happified

  by Farkel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  happified is a real watchtower word(tm), by the way!.

  if you want to give the wts credit for anything, then at least give them credit for their remarkably simple solution to every ill suffered by mankind.. it is a "one size fits all" solution and might be part of the appeal the wts has attracting people who have a hard time with reason and common sense.. they won't specifically tell you what that solution is, though.

  if they did, they would even get less converts than they get now, and currently they ain't gettin' many.
