Hello
by Hendrixgrip inhi, this is my long overdue introduction.
i’ve been visiting this site since probably around 2011. in that time, i’ve taken a lot from these discussions and never contributed anything.
i’m not sure that i have much to contribute these days because i just don’t pay too much attention to wt land.

Artists
by Incognigo Montoya inas a child i naturally inherited an interest in art, drawing and painting to be specific.
being a jw, the paintings and drawings in the literature always caught my eye and piqued my interest.
as i got older, and bettered my artistic abilities, i was often encouraged to put bethel as a goal, though it was family friends more so than my parents who suggested that i should pursue a bethel career, using my artistic skills.

by pale.emperor inas we all know, this org has metamorphosized from one ugly creature to another continuously since it's inception.
but more so it seems in the last 30 years.. i got to thinking what my dad would think if he were to be brought to life for 5 mins to see the way things are now.
how would he even react?.

My highlights from GB member Jackson's ARC testimony
by The Fall Guy inhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erwv8yntfto.
nice to review how one of the "faithful snakes" slithered when he was captive to being questioned.. at 40 seconds, he is asked to swear an oath - and he swears on the bible.
obviously jesus' words slipped his mind: matthew 5:34-37 - "however, i say to you: do not swear at all, neither by heaven.....nor by earth,.... just let your word ‘yes’ mean yes, your ‘no,’ no, for what goes beyond these is from the wicked one.

Science Fiction--Undue influence--Mind Control
by TerryWalstrom ini have been asked repeatedly, "how and why would you use science fiction and the history of jehovah's witnesses to explore the serious problem of mind control?
"how can you get jw's who may be waking up to dare to consider they may be subject to undue influence?i noticed early on with jw's--almost all of them are big science fiction fans!the same is certainly true of scientologists.as to "how"?
this chapter deals with the central plot point.. white house 1908. roald amundsen (arctic explorer) stood speaking softly in the oval office of president theodore roosevelt.. “newspapers call this the heroic age of exploration.but this word hero—that kind of word misunderstands the very nature of a man.”.
