  GOOD cult control techniques

  by philo in

  2. friends

  with logical's post in mind, i want to start a thread about something positive.

  the wt are positively good at controlling their followers.. which is your favourite wt control technique, and why??????????.

  the best contibution wins six million devoted worshippers and a 40 year conditional canonisation in the pages of the wt.. the one i like is so good because it works from 'on high' as well as among the orphans and widows at the congregation.

  Philo, It's gotta be guilt. My mother is the travel agent for the guilt trip.

  Dogpatch, Were the two abused children related to R. Eisenhouer? I attempted searching the net for this info today and came up empty. What I did find were hundreds of similar cases across the nation-state after state. I could scroll for hours. The children always lose. The lambs are still screaming.

  KANSAS OR OZ?

  by Frenchy in

  i mean c'mon people, how long are 'we' going to vent?

  i have met people who have been 'out' for well over twenty years, and they still talk about the watchtower as if they never left or as if they left yesterdayrr in a response on the thread: don't you have a single good thing to say?'.

  are we perhaps all whistling in the dark?

  Hi Frenchy, It was suggested to me recently, by a close friend that I have replaced meetings per week with hours at the keyboard. Get with what's real. Cut the cord and move on. I've been here nearly a year, been away from meetings for months and am well aware of the lie. I've said all I have to say but... I think now, that it's time to "give back." Maybe what we say will make a difference to someone out there. Sweet freedom-hopefully for some.

  We have all been effected in so many different ways. Like joelbear, it helps me to "see the comments of others undergoing the same struggle."

  btw, welcome to the board, joelbear.

  Happy Tuesday! Nomen, Welcome to the board. Larc, Sass, Waiting and Ang, good ones. LOL@ "cycle path." When I started this thread I thought I'd get enough jokes via email to keep it going for awhile. I guessed wrong. An example of this mornings twisted mail leaves me thinking that tomorrow's got to be better.

  we have not attended a meeting for several months.

  besides one elder who keeps pounding on our door, we have been left pretty much alone.

  one jw friend still talks to us regularly.

  Deludednomore,

  "Well, I don't go to the Kingdom Hall and I didn't get killed."

  Good job, Dad and Mom! She's learned this from you. No sleepless nights for her, she'll be just fine.

  We have not attended a meeting for several months.

  Me too. Exciting but at the same time, strange.

  A few chilling quotes: "When an opposer declares, I will not come over to your side, I say calmly, Your child belongs to us already...What are you? You will pass on. Your decendents, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing but this new community."-Adolf Hitler

  I will begin with the young. Knowledge would spoil my young people.
  But they must learn self-control. I will have them master the fear of death through the most difficult trials. He must learn to do without, to endure criticism and injustice. With them I can make a new world."-Adolf Hitler
