Love bombing me, giving me recognition, and an outlet for natural communication skills. making me on object, undeservedly, of the desires of truly gorgeous ladies, who, without that religious aura , would not have given me a second look, in other words, my happy family lives.

It just seems that there isn't enough in it to pin it to them
by joe134cd ini was just thinking this morning about the court cases wt is facing and although i do think there are enough of them is there just enough in them to pin it to wt.
i sort of get the feeling a lot of these cases are revolving around the definition of terms and also an attitude of could-a, should-a, would-a.
even with the latest example it raised more questions than solutions and i'm guessing that's why it was settled out of court.

There's stuff they can do about it.
As you might know from my posts I am no fan of wt leading. but we hear so much of the occasions in failings of the elders/ branches. but
there might also be far more vigilance (not vigilanti ) in the local congregations, that are not in the limelight. After all, I have not seen any group of people where mores are more defined, watched, controlled than in lapland .
lapland the wt since 1914, particularly since the overlapping after the demise of that bachelor, , Fr.Franz.

The Catholic church admitted that 1in 7 priest abused minors. often multiple times in multiple locations,(and that does not include the rank & file). By comparison wt runs a clean maschine. Evolution has primed males to mate with ideal, young females. look at the mags centerfolds, the haute couture gangways to get the picture. Modern laws have removed this prime younger market segment from the 18-68 competition. The reptile in us is not tamed, and. wt is caught in the squeeze.

Self Brainwashing
by OnTheWayOut inso i would love to hear and make more comments here on how "self-brainwashing" is done in jehovah's witnesses and how it becomes a problem when trying to wake up our loved ones.leah remini was on bill maher's show on friday, feb. 17th.
she had some great comments about things said on her series about scientology.
one was how members are "self-brainwashing" because they spend some hours every day doing self-study.

commenting at meetings, refuting objections in the "ministry" are ways that jws brainwash themselves, ( it is actually not a wash, but self contamination with fables, talking snake,--)

Top of pages 22,23 Practical Ways to Reduce Anxiety: 1-7:
2: have realistic Expectations Ecc. 7:16 : comment:
relax, don't worry about Armageddon. The wt anointed generation started to overlap after 1992, after the death of Fr. Franz. We are less than 24 years into the overlap.
Some Laplanders*** live to +107 years, even after a baptism at 9. so : relax, be realistic, 2075 is far away, go to
1: Set appropriate priorities : --right. make the best of the next 60 years. and the wt leaders will pass away, they will end before the end.

"--Mom wanted to know if that was in the "Proclaimers" Book or somewhere she could show the young JW that it WAS TRUE!! If only they really knew the real "JW Heritage" rather than their re-written shenanigans of "truth". . Doc. .
Proclaimer book page 78 par. 2,3 : "-1925 will mark the return from the dead of Abraham, Jacob---and the faithful prophets of old-- to the condition of human perfection--" some hoped that they would receive their heavenly reward in that year. --" ***
like this week's wt, then blame the gullible victims/believers for the depressing debacle that followed, when the princes were not Abraham, Jacob, Israel, but the company servants/ elders. ha ha.
*** cited from the booklet " Millions now living will never die" the masterpiece that got the wt elected to be the F&D Slave in 1919.

Thank you, now I am primed for listening to, not reading, this wt white wash.
Blaming the victims, and giving the abusers a justification to keep acting as is, without cultivating the "new personality". spot on.

Incredible document on the Watchtower and cognitive dissonance
by sabastious ini recieved an awesome document in my youtube messages yesterday.
the person giving it told me it was the best description of the experience he had went through which involved entering and exiting the watchtower over the course of only a few years.. .

A recommended read. Slight correction on 1975:
The numbers did not climb after 1975, but started to decline one year after. It apparently took a few month to sink in, that this was a total failure, and not a miscalculation by a few weeks, or something that should be glossed over,. -- or strengthen the faith.??
Possibly many, included us, were in total denial, stubbornly not admitting to ourselves, and to others that we had been had, and kept going.- sort of.
Will the next generation act like that too, when the overlapping generation peters out, past 2075 ?

"--there were concentration camps in Poland,--" never a jw:
that is how these stories are slanted. There were no polish concentration camps! until 1945.
terrible as these abuse stories are, they are not what makes the wt uniquely abhorrent.
