  This was a comment from the meeting(tm) on Sunday.

  The person that told me about it, is very confused about the validity of the corporation. Somewhere between a PIMO and a PIMI-lite.

  The thing that angered me was that this person has Cancer. (I won't give any more info), and is now worried that this is because they do not believe the GB(piss be upon them), represent anything Biblical.

  I have to be careful what I say due to the disease and it's effect.

  Doubly hard because I am a hard atheist.

  I just said that it was a comment to induce cult fear mongering. That if I were a parent as God is said to be, no way would I treat my children in that horrific way.

  Anyway. Rant over................but my blood is boiling at the sheer heartless cultiness of it all.

  Oh, and the Governing Body are pervert protecting filth and they're the ones that should be punished. Go on God, do your worst!

  Its really nothing new. Often the criteria in a judicial hearing are the questions 'Do you accept the governing body are the faithful and discreet slave that Jesus spoke about, and do you believe God is using them as his channel to dispense spiritual food' If the answer is no then you are out. Nothing else matters.

  alanv - Indeed. The GovBod(piss be upon them), have become god.

  Thanks John, I will do. It may be just the thing.

  Speaking against the GB = speaking against God

  Speaking against God = sickness and death

  This has been hammered into the heads of the sheep so often that they believe it.

  Fasty - The cognitive dissonance runs deep in these cult members.

  As an ex-Elder, I can tell you most definitely, that any discussion with an Elder about doctrine will ALWAYS spiral down to the returned question of .... do you believe that the Governing Body is God's chosen channel today? Which leaves a honest questioner in a bad place.

  no-zombie - That wasn't a thing when I was an elder but things do seem more fascistic with the corporation now.

  LV - I know. Who do they think they are. I mean, how do you even get from Bible to those pervert loving shills?
