"If I had the power,"in writing each prospective person must go over the rules before becoming a JW, a contract. In the contract they must state what will happen if you leave, blood, the world is evil,past predictions, rules for chid abuse and child sex predators. If a person is made aware of the evil of this organization and they still become a JW, then more power to them...Let the person know, we are not a 100% cult, maybe around 75%.....

According to Dr. David Lewis-Hodgson of Mindlab international which conducted this research, music produce a greater state of relaxation and this music "weightless" the top song. The music "weightless resulted in a striking 65 percent reduction in in participants overall anxiety, and 35 percent reduction in their usual physiological resting rates. Equally remarkable is the fact the music was actually constructed to do so. The group that created "weightless" Marconi Union did so in collaboration with sound therapists. It carefully arranged hormones, rhythm, and bass lines help slow a listener's heart rate, reduce blood pressure and lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol.Saw this in the news today. On youtube "Weightless" 15 million hits.

What has been your own personal experience of shunning?
by UnshackleTheChains ini am interested in finding out on a small scale the extent of which shunning has impacted on you personally.. my own experience is that when i faded about 12 years ago.
the woman whose house the book study was held at (and who was virtually a neighbour) walked right past me in my own street.
i remember it so well.

My J.W brother walked my first born J.W daughter (bride) down the aisle.The marriage didn't work out, they divorced 17 years later.......The shunning divided my family, 30 years of shunning has destroyed our family (none JW family members and JW family members)....

No such thing as co-rulers, but one will sit on the right and one on his left. Jesus says that he who dies to himself and is a servant to all shall be the one to sit at his left and right.

What have been some of the funniest local needs talks that you have heard?
by DaPriest ini remember once in berlin south germany there was a local needs part for the men only, and how they should use the toilet.
in all seriousness for ten minutes a retarded nigerian was going on about how men need to sit down when using the toilet.
no mention of anything else.. it transpired that some little kraut boy from an "interested" family would aim for the side of the toilet and leave a great big puddle for others to clean up.

I posted this a couple of times but I was thinking why the brother (elderly brother late 70's-80's) didn't say , do not lie with a woman when she is unclean". The brother said "do not lie with a women when she is masturbating, he meant to say menstruating. Today I guess if he had said unclean, some my wonder did she need a bath or something. But when he said that and I was new I thought WTH, you could have heard a hair drop...

Why do you get upset about family shunning you?
by mr_doubtful ini understand people love their family but i also don't understand why you end up caring in the end.
i'm ready to leave and i 100% don't expecting my family to have any contact with me nor do i want them to contact me.
if they are going to chose a man made religion over me, that's their choice and i will sleep easy at night.

I don't give a crap about ex-JW friends shunning me, but when your children or you mom and dad shun you it hurts...I can deal with brother, sister, nephews and nieces no problem, but your child it's a different story......

I agree with "never a jw", especially the GB they are never never wrong. If that is not a Narcissistic Personality I will eat your hat.

In a predominate black congregation, brothers should think about shaving their mustaches and this is why, (before the big one came in 1975). Brother when 1975 arrive and the big one comes, the Angeles may not be able to distinguish you from those that will be set on fire..I was new and I didn't shave my mustache, but 95% of the brother followed the advice. By the time 1976 rolled around, 95% of brothers sported mustaches... Just think about it, if the Angeles can't figure out who are to be saved because of a mustaches they are some dumb creatures.
