Last assembly I couldn't help but notice how many attendants were guarding the passage to the ones getting baptised ,even my wife turned around and said ,"why do they need so much security ?" for people who are just getting baptised .I'm mad as hell and I'm in ,I'm sure others are too .It will blow one way or the other .No other religion is going so far to prove that they have the truth and ask their members to read the Bible daily in full knowledge that they are full of bulls**t. What really gets me is how they don't even recognise any issues pretending that all is business as usual .I'm taking it to the next level I don't care about their judicial comittees ,even if I get disfellowshiped I will sit there in the front seat every week oblivious of their little rules and conditions. The truth is not something that you have to lie about .All my life I was brought up to believe this I won't let 9 Pharisees in New York to take away that from me .

Movie: "There will be Blood"
by cptkirk ina lot of what i have to say with regard to the only religion that i really know, which is the wt org, centers around passive aggression.
i know that as soon as i use that phrase many people just get the blank deer in the headlights expression on their face, but of all the various psychological phenomena contained within this context, this is without a doubt the largest.
obviously cognitive dissonance and others are mentioned.. it dawned on me earlier, the movie which is cited in the topic, basically the entire premise of this movie is religion using passive aggression to really skull#$%$ people, while holding the line that they are just doing god's will (in a very personal setting here).

Who really is Babylon the Great?
by The Searcher inmy apologies if this topic has been suggested before.. two scriptures which have always niggled me for one reason or another - .
(revelation 17:5-6) and upon her forehead was written a name, a mystery: "babylon the great, the mother of the harlots and of the disgusting things of the earth.
" and i saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of the holy ones and with the blood of the witnesses of jesus.. (revelation 18:4) and i heard another voice out of heaven say: "get out of her, my people, if you do not want to share with her in her sins, and if you do not want to receive part of her plagues.. who really is babylon the great?.

Why did you pick the name you have now
by label licker injust wondering if your name describes what you saw, how you were treated when you were "in" or now "out", maybe your personality, ect.... i'm label licker and the why i picked this name was because of all the licking up one side of elders and down the other to either be an elder or ministerial servant.
one time i was standing right in front of this brother who wasn't made an ms yet and he totally ignored me and talked right over my head speaking really loud trying to catch the co's attention.. got sick of watching the poor elderly sitting all alone or standing against the wall like a wall flower with noone to talk to and yet all these label lickers would take turns picking up the elders elderly parents and take them shopping and do their groceries at least four times a week while out in service, yet, there was noone there to take a meal to a sister who just got out of the hospital with a heart attack.
when i had shown up at her apartment with a meal she asked if i could wash her private and change her bandages.

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.

this is unfortunately the case .The Watchtower has for decades indoctrinate them that if things go wrong just wait on Jehovah ,passive mentality.

I don't accept 144k is a literal number ,but a symbolic number of those going to heaven along the great crowd .The Bible say that the angels will collect the wheat from the weeds right before the end of the system of things AND Revelation says that the angels will collect the 144k in chapter 7 .If you put these two verses together I get the impression (correct me if I'm wrong) that somehow the seperation will be a significant event and obvious to all who REALLY is a wheat .Will that be accompanied by a final part of the witnessing of the good news ? (Your thoughts please ...)
