And many more from the '60s
my name is matthew j and i have just ended my study with the jehovah's witnesses.
no, i did not stop studying because i believe the jehovah's witnesses are a 'cult', i left due to the minor beliefs that i hold that remain separate from the organization.
i called my elder who is still an amazing man and great counselor, affirming that i do not wish to continue my studying.
Matt seemingly echoes what many of us felt while in the early stages of getting to know the witnesses and their indoctrination process. What they have been taught to present to the uninitiated is really quite impressive and it does lead one to believe that what they are "seeing" at that moment is true.
Until one is baptized and a part of the structure one will be treated well. The Love Bombing ends quite abruptly with membership. It is only then that one is able to see and feel the pressures and the fears that are intended to keep one in.
Count yourself very fortunate Matt. You've made a clean escape.
this song has such a powerful message for those of us who have stepped away and escaped the religion!.
enjo!
: (this version has the lyrics to make it easier) .
Yep, it pretty much reinforces the idea that "my eyes are open and I'm awake!" "I can see how the deception works and my mind is free!" Or words to that effect. The authors of the song probably had a Cult Experience, no?
I'd say it's a good fit for all of us Xs.
i think they talk a good game and that’s about it..
Those who are living under the ever present fear of losing standing, family and friends will say and do whatever is expected of them. That is the nature of Cults.
But, do they actually believe? It depends. Some do; some do not; some are wondering. Often it is necessary to pretend in order to maintain stability once snared in the trap.
While there may be reason to see World Events as indications that the Biblical End of This Age is near, how ever it will occur will be quite different from the teachings of WTBorg.inc. Gotta admit, we're living in some weirdly increasing craziness presently, so I for one do believe (and hope) that the End of Corruption, Wickedness, Suffering and War is approaching. I suspect we'll all be very surprised in the not too distant future.
my wife and i just enjoyed a family reunion with both my sons ,one wife and one grandchild 10 years old ,where they stayed at our house for a week .. the best week we have had for many a year .
the couple live only 2 hours away by car and the other son and his child live 2 states away 2 hours by plane.. and thankfully they are no longer associated with the borg that i now regretfully brought them up in , so the borg will never get their children.. it was a happyfying time .
I second all of the preceding. A harmonious, happified family is just about the most important thing ever.
Your expanded family here has said it well!
so much is said regarding men , in a negative way.
shaving commercials are now lecturing us as to how bad we really are.
men should be less masculine.
A brilliant, very in-depth analysis of the ad:

The comments are quite interesting too.

Quote from Cofty:
I'm not sure who invented the term 'toxic masculinity' but everybody who uses it should be embarrassed by their own stupidity.
In the World of Covert Operations it is known as Ideological Subversion. It is not spontaneous but is well financed and well orchestrated. It has been going on for a long time in the U.S.
We are living in a Very Large Cult. Notice how many are jumping onto this bandwagon?
If you have a graphic file (a picture) of your old avatar you can indeed!
you know, i'm not such a conspiracy thinker.
but why do they display this sign / symbol at the background?
with some litle imagination it is a freemason sign.
It's a Cult with a nefarious Agenda. Why should anyone be surprised?
Everything the WTBorg.inc does has some meaning. Probably not good.
If you are back, then, Welcome Back!
I know about those. I have abundant Senior Moments myself...
Growing Old is something that catches up with all of us. It is truly an experience.
