  Founded on a Mental Illness

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the zeal and general character of witnesses is firmly.

  grounded in its encouragement of a kind of mental illness.. specifically, being obsessive-compulsive.

  once i started seeing this, things really fell into place.. it helped to explain so much behaviour that baffled me.

  Why Do JW Leave and Want Nothing to Do With God

  by castlelover in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i find reading this information from different individuals that being a jw and then leaving has people not wanting anything to do with god.

  did god tell us to become members of a cult?

  i think it is a form of programming that is given over and over that we would be like a dog returning to its vomit.

  JW Paranoia

  by Norm in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  nowhere do we get a better idea of how paranoid jw's are when it comes to avoiding reality on the net.

  anything to prevent having to deal with anything resembling critical thinking:.

  hello my name is rita , i want to assist you in joining our jwotw group but because this is a private community for witnesses only, i'd like to ask you a few questions.. 1. what is your real name (first and last)?.

  My article was published

  by RunningMan in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  much to my surprize, i received an e-mail from a webzine this morning, telling me that one of my articles was published.

  they must be very hard up for material.. it is on the subject of "the women of the bible".

  it outlines some of the gender discrimination of the bible, and highlights a few inconsistancies in some of the bible stories that mention women.. if anyone is interested, it can be found at: http://www.liberator.net/.
