Are You Afraid Of Death?
by minimus inwhen we were jws we were told that death is an enemy but if we were faithful to jehovah, we would be alive always in his eyes.
death wasn't something to be feared.
we were only "sleeping".. do you fear death at this point in your life?

What percentage of JWs have been disfellowshipped?
by JWoods ini was just thinking about people i knew - and i come up with around 15% who were disfellowshipped.
some got re-instated, some left for good, i even know a few who were disfellowshipped more than once.
it may be even higher than that - certainly it is pretty common in jwland.. i know that other religions have a theoretical state of disfellowshipping - the catholics have excommunication, for example.

"High-Control Groups"
by Consfearacy inhttp://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/similar-religions-to-jehovahs-witnesses.php .
"it is important to understand that in most bible-based cults, although the member is aggressively taught doctrine, it is not the doctrine that holds him in the group.
it is the sense that the group is god's true people, a feeling cultivated by techniques of mind control.
