data-dog: i believe that many of them would actually be considered mentally ill, if they were ever tested.. .
great question and intriguing hypothesis.
lets take an armchair psychologists view and see what we shall see.
DarioKehl, Finkelstein, GreatTeacher, Millie, Orphan Crow and Phizzy, thanks for all of your comments and contributions to this thread.
I'm busy getting ready for a cross-country trip and don't have time just now to give a proper response to all your your posts, but I wanted to let you know I've read them and, whether I agree or not, I appreciate them all. I should have a little time in the next day or two for a better response to each of you.
In the meantime, keep those cards and letters coming!

paragraph 14.
"the majority if unmarried youths who lose their virginity say that they regret what they did.".
where do they get this stuff?.
The propaganda from the WT is completely self-referential and biased to only confirm what the writers already believe.
Let's review: It's all bullshit!

PA: In context of what is being discussed here, yes I do know. I have also mentioned a number of books in my post and run a blog dedicated to books on psychology
What, so that makes you the only one qualified to discuss this? That's just stupid.
You have know knowledge of what the other posters on this forum know about the subject or our qualification.
You're rude and an idiot. Go away until you get a personality transplant. Then maybe we'll welcome you back, but no promises.
why does the governing body depend on the helpers to write watchtower articles and the information in other publications?
why does the governing body not write these articles themselves?
they depend on the helpers to compose/write this information.
Millie: The material doesnt have a fresh feel to it at all.
Nope. It's worse than day old bread. It's stale, bland and tasteless, lacking in all nutritional value.

The GB are the Executive Head Chefs, the Helpers that actually write the material are the Sous-chefs and the people that run the printing presses and do the website design, layout and production are the line cooks.
I'm not sure what you'd call the people in the video production department. The bakers? I know the guy that writes a lot of their recent music, including "The Singing Literature Cart" is Danny Baker, so that's probably appropriate.
It's all bullshit anyways, so what the fuck!?!
take a look at this caleb & sophia rc badge for children.. .
what's the motivation to make special childrens' badges?
i smell indoctrination!.
well there are lots of reason for sure, denial, delusion, wishful thinking, ego maniac, infantile understanding of ancient writings, satanophobia, xenophobia, out of touch with reality, limited choices scrapping the bottom of the barrel,and many more.. listen to this ted talk and see if you can pick out something that helps explain why these guys are such ass holes:.
organizations are often run according to the superchicken model, where the value is placed on star employees who outperform others.
and yet, this isnt what drives the most high-achieving teams.

Hi Millie!
Your raise a really good question, one that has been examined and studied, but--at least as far as I have been able to determine--has resisted a definitive answer.
That being said, it's nonetheless very clear that the two factors create a powerful negative synergy. And while some delusions maybe somewhat benign (see GreatTeacher's post above), many are clearly malignant, destructive and very dangerous.
Still, a delusion is a delusion. Why would anyone want to believe in things that aren't true? Reality isn't always pretty, but it's always real.
That's what I'm all about: keeping it real.
i hope everyone is having a good saturday.
i've visited this many times in the past month or so, joined yesterday and finally got the nerve to post!
needless to say, i'm super nervous, being new to this whole experience.
Hi Marie, welcome to the forum.
I look forward to reading your complete story. If your husband and kids are JWs then you'll want to proceed slowly and with caution, but by all means: proceed!
