Have anyone ask their JW family member to research "Signs of a Cult"???

    If so what was their response??? If one look at the identifying signs

    of a cult and compare that to JW organization, there is no doubt.

    They score very high on that list.. If there is a Satan and I said "IF"

    he is doing a hell of job in misleading these folks.

    Come on, the new contribution arrangement, if that don't wake some

    folks up nothing will.

    I can't get my family members to even look up cult or research the subject.

    Okay, so here's what I did:

    I pulled Hassan's BITE model off the Internet and imported it into my word processor. I then control-F'd it and searched for every occurrence of the word "cult" and replaced all of them with the word "group."

    I showed the modified list to my wife the other day, actually. All I mentioned was that it was written by a counselor/psychologist who had never heard of JWs. I never mentioned the word cult, but I said it was a study of group psychology and I think it applied to witnesses. She read it.

    I said, "What do you think? Anything familiar?"

    "Yes, absolutely. And he didn't know who Jehovahs Witnesses were?"

    "It's all part of the pattern."

    Wait. Let it "sink in" for awhile.

    I recently heard this in response to "are JW's a cult?"

    "cults do not get tax exempt status"
