  INDEED, LET THE GAMES BEGIN

  by You Know in

  several enemies of the watchtower have ebulliently expressed the sentiment: let the games begin.

  indeed, i too share that desire to let the games begin, so-to-speak.

  but, what exactly are we to expect when once the games commence?

  I am making fun of you personally. / You Know

  Here's another example of a Jehovah's Witness who doesn't practice what they preach.

  I don't think you get it. I am not laughing at child abuse. I am making fun of you personally. / You Know

  Personal attacks are the only thing left for you to resort to, since it's quite obvious you are unable to debate in an intelligent manner. Your inability to do so is probably attributable to the "numbing" effect of the cult brainwashing you've been exposed to.
  
  I don't laugh at you, I feel bad for you. You seem like a person of wasted potential, one who could have done something with his life but made the mistake of following a cult instead. What a waste of life you are.

  Maybe you could start up a movement called the Silent Marsupials or something, devoted to all the little kiddies who were prevented by their cruel JW parents from watching Saturday morning cartoons.

  You Know,

  Did they program you to laugh and make light of child abuse at your cult's "service meeting?" The more you post on this site, the more folks can see what a sick person you are.

  The Koolaid stand awaits, partake freely of the cyanide-citrus mixture. Remember the sign at Jonestown: "Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it."

  I was laughing at your silliness of equating discipline with child abuse. / You Know

  
  You Know,

  Expecting toddlers to sit still for hours of mindless, boring programming and beating them severely for not doing so is not discipline. It is child abuse, and you can attempt to otherwise characterize this abuse, but your characterization will only be accepted by others within your extremist cult who are either ignorant of the basic needs of all children or are criminally disposed.

  The ironic aspect of our discussion is that you present my case better than I ever could. Among other things, you've described needless death as a "victory" for your cult, you've equated coerced servitude of exploited children to "volunteerism," and you've described child abuse as "discipline." Do you have any understanding of how this reflects upon your own personal character?

  Keep writing; the more you write, the more others will see how despicable your cult really is.

  My Experience Today with My Brother

  by Reborn2002 in

  well, my brother and his wife came over to my parent's house to visit today while i was home.. to make a long story short, while my brother and his wife were chatting with my mother in the living room, my 1 and a half year old nephew reilly walked into the kitchen where i was making a caesar salad.. he walked over towards me and was smiling, how can any normal adult resist the innocent smile of a child who is your relative?

  i picked him up and gave him a huge hug, and told him i loved him.. as i was holding my nephew in my arms, my brother walked into the room.

  he was smack dab in the middle of an in-depth conversation about jehovah with my mother and his wife, and i admit i was rolling my eyes listening to him spew about the "truth" and "the only means for salvation in the last days of this wicked system" even though when i confronted him with info on the un, blood, russell gravesite, rape changes, exclusivity, etc, he had no response for me because he was dumbfounded and lost for words.

  I hate to say it, Jason, but if he were my brother, I would've done the same thing, except that when the kid wasn't around, I would have taught him a lesson in familial respect.

  Hang in there Jason, as your nephew grows older, he'll likely contact you to help him escape from the miserable upbringing your brother is likely to give him as a result of his cult membership. I know, because I contacted my uncle for help in dealing with my parents and their cult. He was always there for me and my father had no choice but to deal with it.

  Don't let your weak-minded brother win. Make yourself available to your nephew at every opportunity, and disregard the vitriole that spews from your brother's mouth. Your nephew will love you for it, and your brother, at some point, will have to deal with a son that loves his uncle more than his dad.

  [RE: JWS DYING OVER BLOOD ISSUE] Standing up for ones beliefs, and dying if necessary, is not tragic at all. It is a victory for the faith. / You Know

  So, your cult considers it a victory when its members die needlessly as a result of an inconsistent and ridiculous policy? Get to the KoolAid stand, I think there's some cherry cyanide flavor waiting just for you.

  What are you advocating, that volunteeers get paid? - - You Know

  A volunteer is not someone who acts under the threat of a severe beating. I guess you would probably have called Kunta Kinte a volunteer also.

  Oh, brother. Another whining generation Xer. LOL

  Fortunately, I'm not related to you, so don't refer to me as your "brother." Save that for your fellow cult members.

  As for your "LOL" in regards to child abuse, child abuse is no laughing matter. You must be a real sicko. Do you have any kids, and if so, do you beat them? If your answer is in the affirmative, I hope some day they grow up to beat you to a pulp and use your grave as a toilet.

  I see you have no answer for the inconsistency in the blood policy. Keep on following your illogical and foolish cult, all the way to kingdumb hell.

  That's just plain silly.

  Silly? I think a more appropriate characterization would be "tragic." It's tragic that your cult encourages parents to force their children into performing uncompensated labor on its behalf (i.e. "going out in service"). It's tragic that your cult encourages parents to beat their children (e.g., "spare the rod, spoil the child." Beatings were permitted to occur on Kingdom Hall property). It's also extremely tragic that many folks have given their lives due to a blood policy that is illogical and inconsistent (e.g., blood transfusions forbidden, organ tranplants ok, but organ tranplants can be done without the inclusion of some of the donor's blood).

  The only thing that is silly is your continued advocacy of this cult. If they ask you to drink the poisoned fruit punch, will you do that too?

  Talk it over with your own congregation elders and C.O. That's what I did. They were somewhat disturbed initially, but when I explained things, and the fact that they know me, they came to understand better why I do what I do. - - You Know

  I guess they understand because they are also members of a cult that encourages child abuse and exploitation as well as the shunning of folks who receive life-saving blood transfusions. Maybe you can let the rest of us know your reasons for not only being a member of this cult, but also why you advocate it in public forums. Do you approve of the exploitation and abuse of children that is encouraged by the freaks that run your cult?
