  anyone watching the path on hulu?

  it's a bit extreme but a few similarities in dealing with the struggle of having doubt in possibly splitting up the family.

  ones in blindly following..

  I love this show. It shows the 'normal' side of people in a cult...that they are not mindless zombies, while at the same time the mechanisms of undue influence are always present.

  Lots of similarities: The shunning of former members, not having close association of non-members, the struggle of a young person attempting to be normal and yet pleasing the cult, not being allowed to remain if it comes to light you don't believe...

  I really love Hawk's story. I wish I was as smart as he was when I was his age.

  They show these things, and yet, on the other hand, tell JWs not to stock up or prepare.

  the excellent italian ex-jw website geova.org directs its readers' attention to two big news articles on the jw pedophilia problem.

  milan-based il corriere della sera is one of italy's most respected newspapers:.

  I'm not suggesting discrimination. People of all beliefs are welcome to the government service provided there. However, should any religious group be allowed to proselytize and promote their views on state land?

  They are allowing religious activities (a form of JW worship) at the entrance of a governmental building.

  Convention coming to a city near YOU...

  ...and it's our duty to warn non-jws, or half awake jws about these events, as they start appearing in newspapers throughout the us, and abroad.

  it almost comes out as a promotional ad for the jw convention.

  the 'current events' editing staff of this paper likely has no idea what their promoting.

  Awesome, timelord! Spot on comment!

  "It's true that they don't live in a compound somewhere"--> well,technically some JWs do live on compounds, which are, of course, call Bethel.
