BoozeRunner	Re: Why DO they stay?
	BugEye, nice post. One of the reasons I see is the sense of "community" created by the WTS. For old-timers and those born into the WTS, this is ALL they know as far as socialization goes. As we well know, the BORG has created this "collective" to benefit itself. Questions, of course, are routinely met with accusations of apostasy, and then covered up with the NEW LIGHT or "WAIT ON JAH" crap. It all goes along with the cult mindset. 1.Create a "worthy" objective(spiritual ones seem to work best) 2.Recruit members 3.Isolate members 4.Take-over their thinking(after all, you DID come up with the worthy cause) 5.Depict all other thinking as threatening to the well being of your objective 6.Develop sanctions for improper thinking and behaviour Very effective tactics. No wonder some will never leave. Fear of losing their whole world is an effective deterrent. I probably wouldnt have left had I not been DF'd. It would have been way too earth-shattering for at that particular stage of my life. Amazing the freedom that came with some smokes, a bit of sex, and refusing to give up a lifelong friend who was DF'd. LoL Boozy
