when i first learned ttatt, i read loads all at once and tried to absorb everything.
then i slowed down evaluated my priorities and took one step at time.
now my kids know ttatt and i have set some goals in life, i am ready to take on my next project in my deprogramming.. intellectual intimidation.
Giordano,
I had a little look at that forum too. I think the internet can be a sesspit of all kinds of improprieties. We see ones blantantly saying thinks like it's ignorant to believe this or that................
Wt is much more subtle, from the examples above.

Good info cassuk.
Superior air of dismissal of an opponent's viewpoint, treating it as rather pathetic and really not worth attention.= Intellectual intimidation
I also like this a lot for a definition.

this site , the people posting, and the ability to connect with them this way has really helped me in such a huge way i can't even express.. thank you for all your time, hard work, and kind efforts to keep this open and safe for all that come in here.. .
Here's my thanks too. I am totally addicted. I must sort that out, but I love the site so much. Kate xx
in the year 2011, i was very ill with severe anxiety and panic attacks.. my psychiatrist prescribed two potent anti-depressants.. one day, when i was all alone, i heard a distinct voice say, "there are knives in the kitchen - small, medium, and large ...".
the voice trailed off, but the meaning was clear: use one of those knives on yourself!.
my niece in atlanta reported a similar experience when she was prescribed the same anti-depressants following a stillborn delivery.. i'm curious.. has anyone else experienced something like this?.
Snowbird,
Thanks for telling us your experince. This is a very useful warning. I am glad you have recovered now.

But even educated, sophisticated persons fall prey to a very unfair and untrue type of propaganda. This type assumes a superior air of dismissal of an opponent's viewpoint, treating it as rather pathetic and really not worth attention. It is what many evolutionists resort to in order to evade questions that they cannot answer. They can't prove their theory. So they resort to making assertions, and they scoff at all who dare to dispute them.... They prove neither their assertions nor their smears, but by the tyranny of authority they pontificate their opinions, squelch objections and intimidate opposers. It works, and supposedly intelligent people who know nothing about the theory believe it because "all intelligent people believe it."....

I like this quote too. Because there are accusing others of using it, but in fact using it themselves. With the big question at the end WHAT ABOUT YOU? It's ironic really, WT are the ones that can't prove their theory, or doctrine.

highly educated can experience emotional trauma in their lives, which can make these ones vulnerable to the aggressive marketing of the WTS.-Fink
I hear what you're saying good point. I also think that to keep them in they must use some intellectual intimidation. What do you think of my example in my post 3873?
Emery, great stuff. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.

Jehovah has given us his living Word, the Bible. With this tool, we can prove that what we say can be trusted and comes from God. That is why when Paul was training Timothy, he encouraged him to handle “the word of the truth aright.” ( 2 Timothy 2:15 ) How can we apply Paul’s counsel? By carefully choosing the scriptures we will read to others. Our goal is to touch the hearts of those who listen to us. The tracts we received in 2013 were designed to help us do that. Aug 2014 WT
I think this is an example. They are saying to all JWs that the GB are the scholars and JWs aren't able to carefully pick out scriptures themselves.
Anyone agree, am I right?

OTWO, I must have read it in CoC page 198. Thanks for that. I have just been googling intellectual intimidation with Steve Hassan and got the same Truth be told video you did.
Phizzy, ahh so your saying that loaded language is a form of intellectual intimidation. Ok.

Thanks, just had a look, it got the BITE, I have got the book they're quoting nothing about intellectual intimidation.
