Little mindmines in the Oct. 2017

by days of future passed in

it is difficult for me to say exactly what i mean on this subject.

my sister sent me a link to the oct, 2017 wt simplified article (which has been discussed about the shunning) and i found it disturbing of course, how the wt gives advice, different for each sex, along with the "unbelieving" mate dissing.. wt - although an unbelieving husband may not take the lead in spiritual matters, he should be respected because of his position as the head of the family.

likewise, an unbelieving wife should be shown self-sacrificing love and tender affection by her christian husband.—eph.

MrRoboto

smiddy had a worldly girlfriend? Im telling!

I found this article surprisingly less culty than the usual drivel, mainly because they didnt push for the wife to override the "unbelieving" husband if he didnt want her teaching the kids (from the bible), taking them to meetings and herself doing service on a particular day if he wanted her not to.. so say Saturday is the usual day and he doesnt want to spoil weekend family time, maybe she can pick another day.

My experience is in agreement with other comments that the fam is really just concerned about the cult you just joined as well as not being able to do the usual family customs (birthday/xmas etc) not so much your everlasting life, but ymmv as my fam wasnt religious anyway.

And I was so utterly sure that it wasnt a cult, how perposterous an idea! Go back to your pagan tree worship, mother!

How the Governing Body breaks people

by krismalone in

we all have likely heard the expression "to break a person" and usually it's in relation to kidnappers, bullies, pimps, human traffickers and cult leaders.. when a person is broken, their spirit, goals, aspirations, pursuits, self esteem, critical thinking and dreams are taken away.

what fills that vacuum is despair, depression, low self esteem, lack of self confidence and individuality.

the victim now believes that they are not worthy of enjoying life and following their dreams and personal satisfaction through personal achievements.

MrRoboto

I wonder if being born in vs coming in later will have a baring on whether someone feels they were "broken".

As a person who fell for the bORG in my mid 20s, I can look back and see exactly how I was broken and how my thinking changed. Pretty much everything OP said applies to me but I wouldn't have a frame of reference (before bORG) to compare to if I was born in.

Oh yes, Im just so glad that god has, through his Governng Body, extended such wonderful undeserved kindness. /puke

What could be other alternative names for the Jehovah's Witnesses ?

MrRoboto

I think the best one would be "the now defunct religion, formerly known as jehovahs witnesses" but heres a few more ideas

Supreme Council for Thought Reform

Jehovah and the Armageddonettes

Jonah's Brothers ( something fishy about that one)

IBEW - International Brotherhood of EWwwww

International Cult & Religious Concern

Singing todays WT

by road to nowhere in

the jist was that we all should sing.

then the first 6 or 8 paragraphs describe how early bible accounts have trained and set aside musicians to do the singing while everyone else listened.. the songs they have put out have no soul, rhythm, or soothing melodies as a whole.

the old hymns are some real music, even if you don't agree with the "teachings".. there is no admission of poetry using archaic language at times for affect or to add to the rhyme, they have to have everything agree with the grey bible.. anyone speak foreign languages?

MrRoboto

on the upside, its a slightly veiled admission that the songs are not about worship. you are not singing to god, but to the people around you.

so no more "sing, sing, sing!" then?

or "listen, obey and be blessed"

oh and we had better vet the sisters comments first, to make sure they arent going to say what we "should" or "shouldnt" be doing. and also the non-ppointed boys/men since they shouldnt be telling anyone what to do either.

Conspiracy theorys

by atomant in

its great to see new subject matter being injected into the room of late and would be good to see others contribute by opening new threads on their favorite topics.heres a few examples.9/11.

ufo's.

atom bombs are they real?

MrRoboto

are there any conspiracy theories that turned out to be correct?

yes, but whether you accept the truth is up to you.

heres a big one involving litereally millions of people. they should all go public right? wrong, most of them think they are on the right side and they are only involved in doing their small part to keep it going. The teach false knowledge to people and virtually enslave them, altering their personality, thinking and mindset in the process. they destroy families, friendships, lives. the are involved in human sacrifice (blood issues and others)

you may have heard of it, its called Jehovahs Witnesses.

Appealing to the authority of MythBusters is really quite silly. The myth of the infallability of MythBusters has been debunked but the best part is the who dunnit. It was on their own show, admitting they were wrong after a viewer proved it to them. So lets not appeal to them to prove anything beyond how entertaining TV really can be.

---

This next item doesnt fall into the realm of theory since it is self admitted by the perpetrators. False flag attacks. Im not going into the "CT" ones but just look back at history and the ones that are publically admitted and the ones that are publically admitted to have been planned. That should tell you something about the willingness of people to do these things. lets not extrapolate that to mean more though.

Lastly, just because you reject an idea does not in itself make it false or theory.
