Some stay FOR the control?
by SearchingForMe ini have been wondering lately...do some stay in the borg for the control?.
let me expand that question.
do some currently in the disorganization stay specifically for the sense of control it gives them over others(mate, children, family, friends) and the way it lets them have perceived control of others?.

i haVe always thought this too , im sure that some of the most intelligent ones do not really believe it anymore because of the generation change etc but they love "lording it over others " and getting the respect that they know they would not get anywhere else . then there are the "born ins " who have dedicated so much of ther life to the governing body (that should be god and jesus)that they cant imagine alife without the control they are so used to, some would just believe black was white and vice versa if that info came from "the slave " sad .

yes i turned down an elder , but it wasnt because i was a "good dub" as i hadnt attended for around 2 years by then . he felt terrible about it and i felt sorry for him (he was married) and my friends dad .

who had a child molester in their congregation ?
by looloo ini have done this thread a long time ago , but a few newbies have joined recently and may have had some experiances to share , there was 2 in the congregation i was involved with (i was a "study" ) one was from bethel in america and got deported after his prison sentence and the other was reprooved for abuse then carried on abusing in the congregation , years later he abused my daughter and after i found out i reported him to the police , but he had got off "scot free" for 20 years untill i reported him .
i believe the one from bethel was reported to the police simply because elders kids were affected ..

deserter , what you said about this elder being"cool" reminds me of the one i knew , he had 2 teenage daughters when i first met him ,and i actually remember thinking how great it must be for them having such a young (mid 30s) cool dad , who was always organising games of rounders and days out with all his daughters friends for "them" (him morelike ) years later after i found out he had abused my daughter when he was 43 , i find out he was actually having underage sex and abusing at least 3 of his daughters friends at that time ,and the elders told me they believed that there were many more ! he came across as very helpful and caring and kind but had a dark side and was very cruel and violent to the girls . so trust nobody !

My 1st post
by Darth plaugeis ini left the "truth" in 2002 after being in it for more than 30 years.
i am so glad i wasn't raised in the "truth".
my very zealous wife who was raised in the "truth" found a worldly boyfriend and swore nothing ever happened.

Jesus and Bible Movies
by PSacramento inover the weekend i had a chance to see a few "jesus movies", and the 10 commandaments of course ( yul brenner steals that movie).. my family and i loved the gospel of john, by far our favorite "jesus movie".
king of kings is ok and the greatest story ever told is not a good representation, it lacked passion, lacke consistency and was not very well acted nor was it well written.. the mini-series, jesus of nazareth, was a good one too.. i was wondering if people had other recommendations..
-

i loved jesus of nazereth and presumed jws would also when i got involved with them , but they hated it , the reason given was "jesus looked scruffy " (robert powell ) and it took bible verse out of context .(pot kettle black ,springs to mind ) i told them that the real jesus probably was scruffy , so what ? and as for john the baptist he lived in the wilderness for goodness sake of course he would be scruffy and not look like the nicely trimmed beard clean looking chaps in the watchtower literature !
