  I Watched A Documentary On Jim Jones &The People's Temple & Thought of JWs

  i saw an unbelievable commentary on pbs last night about the reverend jim jones and his church.

  the comparison to the witnesses that i was seeing reinforced that jws are truly a cult!

  they are no different than the cultist in guyana.

  im sorry, but as controlling as JWs are there is no f'kin comparison to Jonestown and trying to put them in the same boat is slightly offensive and plain wrong.

  What the C.O. said right there on the Platform

  by Uncertain in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  he started his talk before rev.bookstudy with all the gloom and doom news and then dropped the (to me) bombshell that he reads the news on line.

  yup, i could hear an intake of breath through the hall.

  i can't for the life of me remember what the rest of his talk was, although he used a box of crayolas as a prop.

  Are JW's generally better than average people?

  by JH in

  2. friends

  i for one, would blindly trust just about anyone on this forum, just the fact of knowing that you already were a jw.. does this mean that jw's in general are better people or are we a very close bunch of people?.

  i have started this thread so that every time i see a new one i can point out how old that idea is.

  congratulations.

  it's great that you have obviously been able to get out without being harmed in some way - really, i'm happy for you.

  I think that anger is part of the healing process, but it stops being a step towards healing and becomes a way of life then you will find me saying "get over it".
  
  I'm reminded of an individual on Gabbly a couple months ago that would keep interrupting the conversation with venomous comments, completely at random too.
  
  It was obvious he wanted to get something off his chest so we asked him about his upbringing.
  
  He was never a witness.
  
  Ooooookay, so how did he know the witnesses?
  
  He studied for 5 months before seeing the truth.
  
  Interesting, and still so upset?
  
  YES! F**K that cult and their S**T
  
  Wow, so how long ago was this?
  
  Back in 1992.
  
  ...

  Okay, get over it.

  too funny
