  My family - what's left of it - could be the poster child for this pathology.

  Vienna -

  Visit a provincial mental health facility , and have them file your information regarding the young man .

  Ask them what can be done to help your friend - he needs professional help,

  Provincial staff are caring and trained with every resources for assesment and treatment which he needs desperately (and maybe wanting, but as a cult member is afraid to stir the dragon)

  I suggest this route over law enforcement (prosecution), or Humane Societies whose agendas are often co-opted towards publicity rather than help.

  Please do this right away as much is already at stake for both your young lives ....

  Hello Lost -

  '' I just read the foreword on it. and the back cover...I´m excited..''

  You made me laugh dear- took me right back to my high school days when,

  having said your above quote to myself, I would confidently deliver a Book Report ! Also sad !!

  Welcome by the way, I´ve been following your posts, and glad you're here with people that care.

  I saw dead people

  by thecrushed in

  it has been a year now since the big breakdown in which i lost my belief system and almost lost my marriage too.

  i now look back and realize how close i came to completely losing my mind.

  all the evidence proves to me beyond a shadow of any possible doubt that i have been raised in a cult and that every single decision or indecision has been directly influenced from this fanatical belief system.

  Could this be accurate?

  by NeverKnew in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is the information on this webpage* regarding the socioeconomic conditions of jws a fair connection to the all too familiar wts quote of 1969?

  does the report's statistics appear to be plausible given your personal observations?

  *even though many others have copied and pasted the article (including the individual who created the page hyperlinked above), i'm apprehensive about doing so for copyright reasons.

  The Governing Body and the Talking Dog

  by Terry in

  consider the following scenario:.

  a technological breakthrough allows humans to establish language communication with dogs!.

  in one of our conversations our dog tells us that their hearing is so acute they can hear sounds we don't even know are there.. we acknowledge that this is true.

  Another thoroughly enjoyable post from your fertile mind !

  What DO you have for breakfast? - I must get me some of that.

  Oh and, I just asked my dog about the cats thing - he says it must be true, as that's

  what his mother told him, since he was a pup...hmmm
