Did anyone get the old "counterfeit money" illustration?
by themonster123 ina couple of my old witness girlfriends came over last night (note-i only recently left the org.
like 2 months ago, so people are still trying to get me to come back and "reason" with me)...and they used that stupid "counterfeit money" illustration.
i swear, every time i tell people i don't think it's the truth, they put that old illustration on me!

Can one man be an Island? Bumping into old workmates - awkward
by needproof ini like to consider myself a bit of an island.
some might call what i do anti-social.
as an island, i have to face inescapable facts - those being that sometimes, i must travel to the mainland.

JWs and the weird way they say Happy Birthday
by reneeisorym inyou who don't know -- i'm daed but my mother still sends me very short e-mail about every two months.. this morning she sent me an email that said:.

it would be sooooo wrong for someone to say -- "happy birthday" .. but its fine to mention that i am 25 today.

Commenting at Meetings: A Way Of Expressing Your Faith???
by R.F. inas we are told by the wt, commenting at the meetings is supposed to be a way of expressing your faith in the congregation.
i hardly felt this today during the wt study today or every meeting for that matter.
it seems more like this is the time when everyone wants to correct others or direct their comments in a way that it's condemnatory to others.

Exposing psychological manipulation
by Ténébreux innot sure if this has been discussed before (probably) but this is something that just occurred to me:.
religions and cults employ some very well documented psychological techniques to deceive, persuade and control people - logical fallacies, thought-reform, etc.
techniques which can be easily identified in action when one is aware that they exist.
