  Subliminal images - why and who are the individuals behind it?

  by UnshackleTheChains in

  i remember about 5 years ago reading on another site about subliminal images in wt literature.

  i honestly thought it a load of bs until i checked out one glaringly obvious image of a creepy skull in clouds within the knowledge book.

  i was shocked and even showed my wife at the time who thought it was creepy.. so my question is why?

  Quote from Cofty:

  That is a very strange statement. Surely the WT traces its roots to the 19th century Protestant Adventist movement.That is a very strange statement. Surely the WT traces its roots to the 19th century Protestant Adventist movement.

  Aye, that is so. All Protestant movements originated with Roman Catholicism and, unfortunately, retained many, many of its false beliefs. The WTBorg continue to propagate these same false beliefs even today. There is in fact, little difference between WT teachings and MainLine Christendom teachings. Especially those teachings relating to "money" and "tithes." Mammon has become the "New Master." They (WTBorg) have brought themselves into alignment with the proposed "One World Religion" as it attempts to obliterate the Really Good News of The Word. These Strange Times are getting very strange indeed!

  Occult images and symbols are quite profuse in movies, advertising and especially music videos. It is a way for the producing organization to "signify" to "those in the know" that they are supportive of and a part of The World and where it is headed: New World Order.

  A principal characteristic of all such organizations is the Love of Money. It is not possible to serve two masters. The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society is today still a sect of Roman Christendom. It has, in fact, never gotten out of Roman Christendom. Their deceptions have fooled a great many people.
  

  The WTBorg Cult has little to do with the Really Good News of The Word.

  Not surprising actually. When the modern day Pharisees take control of something this is always the end result. The Masters of Hollywood and the Entertainment Industry have got all the angles worked out to perfection in order to rake in the dough. The Monarch Butterfly as a symbol of the trauma based mind control sex slave program is significant as well. The Jdubs are already well conditioned to spy on others suspiciously and to "report" any signs of potential apostasy. Yep, Orwell's 1984 pretty closely aligns with the New World Order and it would appear that WTGBborg plans to be part of it...

  The End must be very near.

  im giving up guys.

  i've reached the end of my patience and now i finally refuse to waste any more time on part-time witnesses.

  i've text all of my active jw family members and told them to delete my number from their phone and never contact me again.

  How very sad. Well illustrates how deeply embedded the Programming and Guilt and Fear are as a result of the coordinated Mind Control Operation.

  There is yet hope, however. Seeds have been planted which will yet germinate and take root. Waking up for most is a gradual process with many "one step forward two steps back" events which can be very frustrating to observe. There is no logic or rationale involved - the deep seated fears are very strong emotions and when they "trigger" the "Borg effect" kicks in.

  After you've survived the frustration and peace returns, you'll realize that "giving up" is not a prudent option. Your strengths, your patience, your long-suffering and your Love are what bring them to you in times of need. One day they'll all comprehend that and thank you for it!

  My disassociation story

  by Roger Kirkpatrick in

  following is a summary of events leading up to my decision to disassociate from jehovah's witnesses and the unforeseen results of that decision.. a young man named joel engardio produced a documentary about jehovah's witnesses called "knocking" which aired nationally on pbs.

  i purchased the dvd from joel before it was even released and we exchanged emails.

  joel had been raised by his jw mother and had been active in jw activities during his adolescence, but he was never baptized as a jw.

  When a Wife walks away from a marriage in circumstances such as those, in all likelihood the Wife had been desirous of separation for quite some time and simply needed a "legitimate" excuse. When Love is gone from a marriage there are usually certain signs. Had either of you, Roger or Daniel, noticed any peculiarities in your Wives prior to your decision?

  While not meant as one perhaps; nevertheless, your Mother gave you a great compliment!

  For Minimus, and other old timers who remember H2O and the early days of exJW discussion boards

  by Broken Promises in

  i'm having a debate with someone on facebook who claims he came up with the term "borg" in reference to the wts back in the mid 2000s.

  however i'm certain the term was used on h2o as early as 1999 as well as here when this site was first set up.. can anyone confirm that i'm not dreaming?

  what's the earliest you remember seeing the term being used?.

  Aye, probably most 'Murkuns became aware of the Borg in the late 80s with the Star Trek Next Generation series. The Borg and the Org shared strikingly similar characteristics.

  I didn't know about the Scientologists having Borg also. Very fitting in their case too.

  Yep, the WTBorg experience does kinda shatter the mind into various compartments as the indoctrination is implanted. It'll take some time, as everyone has indicated, to enable the brain to re-assemble itself into a coherent unit once again. As you continue your search for Truth at your own pace you'll eventually come to the Really Good News. There is so much that the WTGB have gotten wrong about what is to come. Freedom is indeed a wonderful thing!

  New Here

  hi everyone, this is my first post .. it takes a little bit of courage to do it, i have to admit and even thought i have been lurking for some time as time goes by it gets more and more difficult to keep attending meetings and just been around the friends in the congregation.

  ever since i learned about the arc something inside of me just broke and it feels pretty hollow, now i pay attention to every single form of manipulation in every direction, what difference it makes with the catholic church or with any other religions ?

  i wonder why the publishers are under obligation to report about their lives and decisions to the elders but they don´t keep informed the congregation about what´s going on legally other than russia.

  Aye, I'd like to add my joy at your awakening to the very encouraging welcome all of the others have given you. Should you ever have moments of "doubt" let Patty Loveless strengthen your resolve.

  Breaking away from the shackles and chains is a beautiful thing!
