  Brilliant idea, Jourles. Stupid again? One thing about them, they seem to learn from their mistakes. I could see them re-joining for purposes of greed, but using a straw man like you suggested. Then they could talk circles around apostate evidence. OK, I'll have to give this some more thought. After another vodka and grapefruit juice, that is!

  Why I think Jehovah's Witnesses are a cult

  by whyhideit in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think it pays sometimes to look back at our life with the jehovah's witnesses and review what made the organization a cult.

  after all, for years we were told by the society that we were not in a cult and we argued this point in the door-to-door activity.

  i found these thoughts on a web-site and i gave personal examples of how i felt and what i saw back in the days of the religion's influence on my life.

  I can relate. They had me for almost 40 years! I would also add to your list "No freedom of thought or information." I used to swear it was not a cult but I firmly believe it IS now. They can't make ONE important decision on their own. It is sad and pathetic.

  Is This Old News?

  by Alexis_Hart in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i don't know if someone has already posted on this at a previous time and i just didn't see it then, but i saw something for the first time on tv today that totally blew me away.. it happened while i was watching a local television channel's normal afternoon of syndicated shows, during the commercial break.

  i'm sure a lot of you have seen the commercials from the mormons and the church of jesus christ of latter day saints.

  they're always promoting family and love and togetherness.

  Thanks for the link, Runningman. http://www.jw-media.org/edu_videos/psa_02lo.htm

  FYI, I have Zone Alarm, a free firewall for my computer. (A nice product). When visiting the above link, I got a warning from Zone Alarm that Internet Explorer was asking for server rights! Too funny. The borg must be looking for something! I said "no" and the Real Player plugin still worked fine. BTW, I wanted to puke after seeing that crap. But thanks for the info, Runningman. :-)

  Man, you are ALL a bunch of BAD ASSOCIATION!! (Thank God)

  I was counselled for wearing a beard. Somehow I slipped through a crack and actually gave a No. 5 talk with one. The elder that counselled me has now been out for 20 years. He was real cool about it and is one of the best people you could ever know. His days in the borg HAD to be numbered!

  Nothing Hurts Like This

  james: .

  though i may, on more than a few occasions, have questioned whether or not i wanted to be one of jehovahs witnesses and i may at some point decide that i dont, i can assure you that i would never contact you again.

  it is really unfortunate that you felt the need to post our email exchanges on jw.com because to be honest with you, i actually thought that you may have been sincerely interested in me as a person.

  I love your posts, JT, and hope you keep visiting. You did your best and she isn't ready yet. At least you did the right thing and tried. Maybe the seed will grow!
