A question
by dgp inas a worldly, i realize that, if i were to say something about the watchtower, it would almost always be something that i learned from someone else.
i have few personal experiences of what the wt is like.. the words of ray franz, for example, were a different matter.
he knew the beast from inside, to a level few other witnesses knew it.

Rutherford and Russel were SPIN DOCTORS?!
by confliction inin public relations, spin is a form of propaganda, achieved through providing an interpretation of an event or campaign to persuade public opinion in favor or against a certain organization or public figure.
while traditional public relations may also rely on creative presentation of the facts, "spin" often, though not always, implies disingenuous, deceptive and/or highly manipulative tactics.[1].
politicians are often accused by their opponents of claiming to be honest and seek the truth while using spin tactics to manipulate public opinion.. because of the frequent association between "spin" and press conferences (especially government press conferences), the room in which these take place is sometimes described as a spin room.

The boldly stupid remain so while those not so inclined act with undue restraint
by gubberningbody ininteresting study..... .
the dunningkruger effect is a cognitive bias in which "people reach erroneous conclusions and make unfortunate choices but their incompetence robs them of the metacognitive ability to realize it.
"[1] the unskilled therefore suffer from illusory superiority, rating their own ability as above average, much higher than it actually is, while the highly skilled underrate their abilities, suffering from illusory inferiority.

So there was this duck...
by confliction inone fine saturday morning you're sleeping in, when the doorbell rings.. to your surprise, when you answer the door, it's- you guessed it- a duck.. so the duck tells you, "hello, my name is mallard.
i talk to jesus so you should listen to me because the world will end in 10 seconds.".
you say to the duck, "interesting...", you say.. 3 minutes pass while the duck is hiding his cross, child abuse papers, and freemason symbols.... .

Am I wrong?
by confliction ini was just mulling over this in my head- no real research, so feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.. supposedly, 'we' get our information from the gb, correct?.
and jesus is head of said gb?.
so the gb gets their commands only from jesus, correct?.

[LONG] Making a plan to leave... I have no friends :'(
by confliction inthe title pretty much explains it all... i don't want to go too much into my story (for paranoid fear of identification), but i have been raised in the "truth", and got baptized at a young age- too young to truly understand what i was getting into.
i still live with my parents, and as such don't want to make a move just yet, as it would destroy virtually everything i have left.
as of now though, i see myself leaning towards agnosticism.. here's my short sob story.
