  Stupidest thing a JW ever told you

  what is the stupidest thing a jw ever told you?

  we all know that they say a lot of stupid things, but what really topped the cake?.

  for me, it was an elder telling me i was progressing really well when my meeting attendance was down and my field service hours were slipping.

  Jehovah's Witnesses Are Under Mind Control

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if you were to tell a witness that they were "brainwashed" or that they were "under mind control", they certainly would not rationally accept it.the reason is because witnesses cannot distinguish between mind control and "obeying the faithful and discreet slave".

  it is only after a person stops exposing himself to the subtle mind controlling tactics of the watchtower that a person can see how thoroughly duped they are in their beliefs.

  how might you be able to tell that you are no longer your own person, able to make your own decisions in your life?

  Who's To Blame For The Child Abuse Problem?

  by Englishman in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  just trying to get my head around this one.

  with the jailing last week of a london dub paedophile, i was wondering: .

  is it the religion itself that gives these perverts the feeling that they are invincible and immune from punishment when they commit these acts?

  Meditation

  i've been an ex-witness for approximately twenty years, but i still don't know what to make of yoga and other related activities.

  the most recent issue of 'time' magazine has an article on meditation and how extremely popular it has become.

  it's been proven to be very beneficial to people in a variety of ways - - physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

  as in previous years, the material presented was dull and repetitious, so once again, i was forced to provide my own entertainment.

  so, like last year, i am pleased to present a further installment to my assembly adventures, called:
