  My opinion: I think it takes a "perfect cocktail" of circumstances.

  - Personal mistreatment by other JWs causing you to question the "Love" in the congregations

  - Missing meetings and "theocratic activities" is KEY. Without the constant mind numbing cult bullshit, your mind and body can have the breathing room and reduced stress to actually start thinking for yourself again.

  - Addressing doubts instead of letting cognitive dissonance take over. Giving yourself the permission to question and use your god given brain (if you believe in him/her/it) to apply real reason to the teachings.

  My Wife's Theory

  discussing the recent boe letter regarding child molestation this morning with my wife (she actually brought it up) , and she commented on how absurd it was - it just did not make sense!

  but there was one way that it could make sense.

  she said "what if someone at the top on the governing body was a child molester and wanted to cover everything up?

  I think an easier explanation is that they are nucking futs. They seriously believe their own sh!t and are going nuts trying to hold on to power.

  on another thread (in a galaxy far far away), i saw that one of the paedophile protecting gb members from the brooklyn hate factory made a statement like:.

  ''it's still the truth(tm), we just have a different understanding of it!''.

  please feel free to ridicule, analyse, critique the above propagandist spin..

  i've been thinking about putting together a pamphlet of things that have worked well for me over the years.

  if it's successful, maybe it will lead to seminars or classes.

  feel free to critique, or chime in with your own.

  Constantly be adjusting yourself. That will tell her that your package doesn't comfortably fit in normal clothes

  Per all posts on the annual meeting this is scary stuff

  2. scandals

  they are leaving a path of destruction and pain without a single pang of conscience and no one is sure what to do about it.. they are powerfully manipulative, intimidating,aggressive and deceptive.. they have no empathy or remorse care only about themselves.. the 7m sheep are victims and have a hard time seeing what really goes on.. history tells us what the gestapo did.. history tells us what psychopaths do.. they are saying they are god obey us or else we give you the boot.. scary stuff.

  Yes, sadly, few JWs will see it unless they are already awake and doubting. I fear for my former friend as well as family that are still in...
