Annoying 2/15 WT - Don't Be Stumbled- your Mind Just Misunderstands !
by flipper inanother wt article which causes jw's to doubt their own perceptions of reality.
) in this particular article titled " for those loving jehovah, " there is no stumbling block " - the wt society stoops to new, or rather re-hashed lows to insinuate that most if not all jw's really misunderstand causes of stumbling as it's just their minds that are imperfect, messed up, or gone entirely anyway.
the first abhorrent bit of information here describes a witness man who " fought " with feelings of being homosexual and of course the elders thought they had the perfect antidote to keep him from his alleged " abnormal " desires.

Don't trust your heart. Don't trust your mind. Don't trust anyone except the Governing Body.
It's no wonder we're all traumatized.

My questions for YOU
by Terry ini'm curious about human intelligence and beliefs as a natural phenomenon.. i've long suspected that even the most "normal" and well-educated person harbors "fringe" beliefs.. the purpose of this thread is not to mock beliefs of any kind.
rather it is for all of us to toss in to a pile our own unprovables so .
we can, as a group, evaluate how natural and non-neurotic such thinking might well be.. .

I'm a no on everything except #3 - ESP and psychic powers.
My BFF lives 1000 miles away from me, but she knows, without any sort of communication from me, when I'm having a bad day. She'll call and say, "What's wrong?"
I believe.

Secret WBT$ documents that get leaked.
by punkofnice init seems that all the 'secret' letters to elders and even the 'flock' book find themselves on satan's internet.
they become fodder for we 'mentally disease apostates'(tm) to analyse, review and destroy.. eg.
i even had the 'skin the flock'(tm) book before the elders in my old congregation.. are the gb/lawyers/paedophile protectors/whoever aware?

Phizzy - LOL!
Whoever is leaking those documents must be an amazing actor. Obviously, nobody suspects him.

So, all the kids at the KH will compete to be the first to memorize the song, and they'll all carry it around in their heads for the rest of their lives.
Very clever, WTS!

Do you have friends/family still in the organization waiting for a big "cleansing" to occur?
by Pyramid Scheme ini have had some great conversations with friends and family lately who are still in the organization.. when i explain my feelings and beliefs, and discuss a number of the scandals surrouding the wt, they agree with me 100% - even expressing some things i didn't expect them to say as far as doctrine and teachings.
in other words, they can see the obvious problems and want them to change.
all of them little trust in the leadership, and have expressed disgust with several elders in the congregations they attend.

I probably would have clung to that "wait on Jehovah" attitude and stuck it out but then I found out about the pedophilia. That was it for me.
My ex-husband agreed with all of my grievances and acknowledged that the pedophilia was inexcusable, but he was certain that there would be a cleansing. Still is, apparently.
