A cult is a cult anyway you look at it
by wannaexit inthe mention of the word "cult" may bring to mind jim jones of the people's temple and the mass suicide of over 900 innocent lives or david koresh of the "branch dividian and the massacre of innocent lives in waco.. the watchtower may not be a cult of that extreme calibre, but it is without a doubt a cult.. to those of you that may think that the watchtower is not a cult please consider this quote from the book "seductive poison" ( this is the biography of deborah layton who managed to escape jonestown).
the quote reads as follows:.
"when our own thoughts are forbidden, when our questions are not allowed and our doubts are punished, when contacts and friendships outside of the organization are censored, we are being abused for an end that never justifies its means.

Will the Watchtower take down their website?
by integ inwhat can the watchtower do to stop the influx of their flock from going to apostate web sites that expose their false doctrines?
one way would be to take down their website so no one would even have a reason to get on line.
too severe right?

Questions about Jehovah's Witnesses that I need answers to
by the real truth ini'm not trying to offend anyone by asking questions, but i really want answers to my questions from jehovah's witnesses.
ok, i've been having a problem with john 1:1. how many gods are there?
the most famous distortion in the nwt is john 1:1. the nwt inserts the word "a" in front of the second god in this verse.

Did anything a householder said ever make an impression on you?
by Alleymom incoming at this as a householder rather than an ex-jw, i'd love to hear from any of you about comments from householders that made an impression on you, back when you were active in the door-to-door work.
since the jw's first knocked at my door 13 years ago, i've done my best to give them something to think about every time they knock at my door.
i always introduce myself by name and try to get their names.
