Do you believe that we are living in the last days, and why?
by new light init has been a long time.. thanks to jw.org, i was reading some jw material (what does the bible teach i believe).
it was the first time reading a "book study" book in many years and i was blown away by the controlling, cultish writing.
this question especially struck me as manipulative: do you believe that we are living in the last days, and why?.

Using the "C-Word" With My Wife
by breakfast of champions inmonths ago, i commented on another thread about a strategy i was using to introduce my wife to the way cults work--without using the word "cult" and scaring her away.
here's my first comment on that thread:.
i pulled hassan's bite model off the internet and imported it into my word processor.

If you allow anger and frustration to be the backbone of your faith you will prevail as an Atheist. imo, how can blaming God and being so angry with him equate instead to there being no God? The basic drive to Atheism, imo, is a weird conundrum that used anger at God as the basis for proof of his non-existence. Very interesting psychological logic.
Utter bollocks. if you equate rejection of the concept of god as some kind of hissy fit then this sounds more like wishful thinking on your part in order to ease the cog dis.
Ask any atheist why instead and it will usually just come down to research and a total lack of credible evidence. Any anger and frustration seen is with having wasted years of their lives in a lie and the destructive grip religion holds over the masses.

Once you realise that people all thru history have believed they were living in the last days, it kind of takes the gloss off it....

A cult like the watchtower is only ever going to feed it's own bias and agenda, bible study my frickin ass! They only want you to know what suits them, anything that doesnt is avoided or glossed over, no wonder we were in a mental prison.

All the "annointed" i have met (not many i grant you) have been just a little bit off, claiming special insight and knowledge and generally making shit up as they went along.

Did you read the wiki I linked to? it strikes me you only have the basic understanding of what a hallucination is or can be.
have you seen any TED talks by Dr Oliver Sacks?
Have you read this? http://www.skeptic.com/downloads/why-people-see-ghosts.pdf
Have you read Carl Sagans Demon Haunted World?
Do you really want to find out what happened? Some dont because it will crush their world view of gods and spirits.
