Sadly, this isn't exactly news...
I think Lett needs to be examined as well!

The contempt of Anthony Morris: the face doesn't lie.
by freemindfade ini have noticed something even long before even looking into ttatt, something about morris bothered me.
i am personally very attuned to body language, facial expressions and general subtleties in human interaction.
there was something about his face that really bothered me, and i will explain it.

As mentioned above, fear keeps cult members from looking for information. One could say it is a FOG that prevents them from seeing: FOG = (fear, obligation, guilt).
Fear of the apostate boogeyman, fear of Armageddon, fear of Satan, fear of the “World”, fear of losing God’s blessing, fear of being deceived, ect...
For many of us who have been out for a while, we’ve lost these fears that are drilled into the cult member by constant indoctrination. But for a long time, these fears kept us from seeking an abundance of information that was at our fingertips.
I know for me it took 17 years. -

Why are JW talks & publications never uplifting?
by thedepressedsoul ini was sitting at the meeting the other night and for the first time it hit, jw talks or magazines are never uplifting!
i rarely, if ever hear a talk or read a magazines and have it give nothing but praise to jehovahs servants or just praise jehovah and jesus throughout it.
they never just a read through the bible or just a bible story explained or told.

It's a cult. Guilt and fear are the two primary emotions that cults use. -

Rev 17:9 - Thoughts?
by leaving_quietly inrev 17:9 describes something about the "woman", the harlot, babylon the great:.
here is where the intelligence that has wisdom comes in: the seven heads mean seven mountains, where the woman sits on top.
and there are seven kings: five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet arrived, but when he does arrive he must remain a short while.. i was dreaming about this verse last night, so i thought i'd look it up.

One thing is for sure: No group in the last 2000 years has ever made a successful prediction of the future based on the book of Revelation.
Now that I'm out of a cult or any form of fundamentalism, I’m much less vested in Revelation. It is more an occasional curiosity to me. The Watchtower’s mistake, inherited from the Adventist, is to based primary beliefs on interpretations of Revelation and Daniel, and then reinterpret the non-symbolic portions of Scripture through that lens. It should always be the other way around. -

I feel this is a problem of reading through a modern lens. We often interpret words based on what it means to us today, versus what they meant to the audience they were intended for. This is case in point with the word that in some translations is translated as ‘earth’.
When we hear the word ‘earth’, we immediately think of the planet or globe. But the primary meaning of the Greek word is land. This is how Young’s Literal Translation rendered it: “and the woman that thou didst see is the great city that is having reign over the kings of the land.'”
At the very least, when reading the Old Testament or the New, when the word earth appears in our modern translations, we need to question how the ancient audience would have understood the word and in what context.
