The Watchtower crazy train puts you on this trip of building resistance to people not unlike pavlov and his dog.

the watchtower crazy train puts you on this trip of building resistance to people not unlike pavlov and his dog.

its a process.

it doesnt happen overnight.

jw’s want to break it down to the ridiculous. without a common theme or story line that ties it together.

when you give them the overlying story line or theme they simply don’t want to hear it. when you assemble all their facts in to one giant story they don’t want to hear it. it’s just too painful? too eccentric?

like a kid with asperger’s syndrome it’s a learning disability? (It’s been said mozart and einstein had flavors) just another flavor of autism? on the spectrum? they are obsessed with what they think about. they are very confused by the facts and don’t see how it all ties together. eccentric to no end; with no desire to hear what you have to say.

it’s really a bad case of confusion based on culture, speech, abstract thought, neurolinguistic programming, manipulation, snake handling, i could go on but you get the point; or you don’t.

it’s really too painful to come to the realitization that these guys sold you down the river for money. that you gave your life to these scoundrels over money. that they manipulated and lied to you and they told you not to associate with the very people that could tell you the real story.

in my book that goes beyond common decency. in my book that goes beyond any form of aggression. in my book that takes scoundrel to another level; carpetbagger. whatever you want to call them. take your pick.

they cherry picked you on your ignorance. they played you because of your learning disability. they sucked you in and fed you down the river. you are simply carp bait to attract other carp. bigger, more vested carp with bigger pocket books.

sorry about that.

Psychoanalyzing the Governing Body as a Collective Body by what they cause to be written in literature and private letters:

by frankiespeakin in

now would any "psychologist" on the board and i use the term loosely as i am not one professionally , and have a very rudimentary hazy knowledge of analysis.. but one of the things jung had to do with the subject is the shadow to be properly analyzed one needs to recognize the shadow we all have we all have one.

and what happens when we repress a lot of things and stuff them into ones personal shadow, they get stronger and cause projection on the outside world that make one respond certain ways that might be termed as phobias or neurosis and even psychosis.. im sure we can spot a lot of denial and repression surfacing in what they cause to be published either publicly and in private correspondence.

perhaps even some phobias or out right neurosis.. i bett you a really skilled psychologist could have a fruit picking holiday with the stuff they find on the net already published far and wide for all to see.

Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word For The WTBTS To Say!

by JW GoneBad in

sorry to raymond and cynthia franz for expelling them on trumped-up charges and forcing them from there bethel home.. sorry for demonizing many of raymond's accomplishmets, such as 'the aid to bible understanding' (the blue book) that he had a hand in putting together and that too many old timers remember who grew fond of reading to expand their bible knowledge.. sorry to oompa for disfellowshipping him and causing him to be shunned to the point where he couldn't take it any longer and wound up taking his own life.

.

sorry seems to be the hardest word for the wtbts to say!.

We are Sorry. We need a new Yaught!!! and we love this idea!!!

The Problem With The Organization Exposing Their Former Beliefs To Their Current Ones

by minimus in

i realize some witnesses will say how wonderful it is that the governing body has put into print how their understanding has changed over the years.. the sheep and goats, the faithful and discreet slave, the evil slave class, etc.

are all viewed differently then originally understood.. the sad thing is that if you questioned any current understanding, as explained through the watchtower, or if you disagreed with it, you would be disfellowshipped!.

even if their understanding was totally in error, if anyone ever pointed it out, they were out!.

Narcissistic Supply

To me it all seems really petty. At some point you get tired of beating a dead horse.

It's just a failed social experiment.

Please help. I am losing the plot.

by wordyword in

after being a witness for 40 years, i now find myself disfellowshipped.. i have had a number of doubts for a few years now, but still feel as if i'm living my life in the "t minus " to armageddon spector.. my parents are in their 80's and my dear mother is in very bad health.

i was allowed to pop through - about once a month to make sure my parents were ok and for them to see their grandchildren.

this all ended after the july watchtower article and especially since the district convention - with all the "counsel" on associating with disfellowshipped family members.. around 6 weeks ago, my dad asked me point blank why i wasn't trying to get reinstated.
