Legitimate Children
by new hope and happiness ini have my own personal viewpoint on why its often so futile to reason with a jehovers witness.. i think many witnesses, feel like legitimate children to the organisation.
( i have often heard the org being referrd to as mother).
and this parental sence of belonging is so strong that new membets become " stepchildren".

I have my own personal viewpoint on why its often so futile to reason with a Jehovers Witness.
I think many witnesses, feel like legitimate children to the organisation. ( i have often heard the org being referrd to as mother). And this parental sence of belonging is so strong that new membets become " stepchildren". These stepchildren dont have such a sence of belonging or ownership, but seek approval and love from the legitimate children.
I am not sure if that makes sence? But i guess the life within the " lie" becomes more important than life without the " lie", where they dont have a sence of belonging and ownership.
your point of view is welcome.

My understanding is that the society has made obscene amounts of money through property transactions in the U.K. Why not invest that in construction projects in less developed lands? ( ok thats a retorical ?)

A message from Brother Russell
by donny ini was having an anointed moment last night when brother russell came to me in a dream.
he was quite disturbed and agitated.. he said "brother reed, what in the miracle wheat eating jellyfish is going on with the organization i set up?
the more of my beloved watchtower that i read the more they marginalize my dead ass.".

Jesus' Teachings - Helpful or Harmful?
by jgnat inspinning off from another thread, have jesus' teachings been less than universally helpful to mankind?
how do we measure if a particular philosophy is helpful or harmful?.
i am going to use the "universal morals" listed here.

it depends how you interpret and apply them....as for me i am not giving " all i possess to the poor" and neither will i hate " my family.." ..so to understand Jesus teachings we needed others to clarify them...( i have to say that was harmful)

R.V.W..." if we have awakened to the lies" there is no reason ( ok statistically i am wrong) but members are becomming less indoctinated. And i am sure each year the newley indoctrinated are less indoctinated.
