Instead of the term Watchtower coins of unity, the more appropriate term is conformity.

I think both "insular" and "isolationist" are good but I went with "insular" because it seems more impartial to me.

The word that best sums them up is WANKERS.

They use it all the time Psalm 100: 3 Know that Jehovah is God.
He is the one who made us, and we belong to him.
We are his people and the sheep of his pasture.

Hi Paul,

I love using a Thesaurus when looking for alternative words.

Cultlike.

That was my first impression when I first experienced the shenanigans of Flipper's family - my first encounter with JWs other than at the front door. Same feeling being in a kingdom hall.

They struck me as very similar to Scientologists, Est, Moonies and Multi Level Marketing groups. Fake-happy, nodding heads, weird mannerisms.

Now, ten years later, I really feel that "cultlike" is an accurate description. From an "outsider" perspective it's a mild word considering how damaging and dishonest the religion is.

Xenocidal - Expecting everyone to be killed by God but them, and they take glee in it.
