Some will see this as evidence of the "King of the North" as hearing "reports" "out of the sunrising and out of the north"--and view this as the tribulation being imminent.

What would be needed for the State Department to do an internal investigation? Wouldn't this be a breech of national security?

Stronger than Hypnosis
by Londo111 inbeing the society is anti-hypnosis, i know very little about it.
but from what i've observed it often involves willing participants focusing their concentration, usually involving repetition, until the subject is in a state where suggestions can be implanted in their mind.
bite can involve hypnosis, but in many instances it may not.

He brings up some good points, but of course, he is speaking from an Agenda. I'm not sure if I buy all the left/right brain stuff he talks about.

Mirror neurons start firing evidently when like 'cultured' people meet. I notice that this Indian kid at work is more American than me, but when he talks to another Indian, he adopts the accent and gestures. Steve Hassan said that Moonies would adopt similar mannerisms about them. Sometimes you can sense when a person is Mormon. Logically, it is the same as the Witnesses. How many experiences do we hear where Witnesses will say, "There is just something about them…they must be Witnesses."
Even with cliques, I've noticed this. I remember in one congregation, one took a predominant lead, and other young people in the cliché seemed to adopt the same speech, mannerisms, and dress.
But hopefully 'mirror neurons' can work to our advantage. As Paul said to become all things to all people. To the Witnesses, we become a Witness, so we can save some from the clutches of the Society.

Yes, I noticed when I was at the library the Proclaimers book, but nothing like Crisis of Conscience. That seemed strange.

Do you have an interest in Evolution?
by snare&racket inwould you like to know where to start and what books to read?.
feel free to ask any questions about evolution.
it concerns me that a minority of people who admit not reading the theory or it's evidence, muddy the waters of this forum with their gut feelings and ignorant self experiments.

Last year, I read 'The Language of God' by Francis S Collins. It is a book about t heistic evolution. Some of his viewpoint would seem to negate freewill, but it was an interesting read.

BITE can involve hypnosis, but in many instances it may not. However the BITE system even apart from hypnosis, seems to accomplish the very same goal. A participant is willing, to one degree or another, in a focused indoctrination process, and by force of repetition and loaded language, suggestions are implanted that are deep as if not deeper than what hypnosis could produce. Perhaps it has to do with the shaping of neural pathways over a long period of time.
Under the Society's direction, a study may last six months to a year. Meanwhile they may start attending meetings and assemblies. And the neverending reading treadmill begins as well. Slowly suggestions are cemented into place and are hard to shake. Thus, the important to attend as many meetings as possible.
Years back, I was sitting in my seat in a relaxed manner before the meeting, and the CO was chatting with me. Suddenly, the chairman got up onto the stage to start the meeting, and my body, of its own accord, straightened in the chair, shifting into meeting mode. I think it was due to decades of meeting attendance from infancy. The brother got up on stage and my body automatically started to prepare without conscious thought.
If these suggestions are cemented into place, then no wonder they are hard to shake. No wonder friends and relatives still in will get this strange look in their eyes and get defensive when doubts about the "Faithful Slave" are raised. No wonder there are strange leaps of desperate 'logic'. We might be dealing with something stronger than hypnosis.
