from a psychcentral (run by mental health professionals): a familiar item on a list of 7 types of parental abuse :.
spiritual abuse.
has the child experienced:dichotomous thinking – dividing people into two parts: those who agree with the parent and those who don’t.
being dragged to meetings--especially mid-week with school next morning.
forced to sit quietly for 2 hours through a meeting--worse at an assembly.
being kept out of school assembly--subject to ridicule by other kids
taken out door knocking--???!!!.....SLD
Gawd I remember all of that..
Then you`re told how much you enjoy being a JW Kid..
........
Disagreeing Was Never a Good Idea..
i love math, i love calendars, and somehow, this always gets me.. 2520 - 607 = 1913. not 1914.. 2520 - 606 = 1914. from what i understand, russell realized this.
he had previously used 606 bc, of course, but then he switched it to 607 bc.
i know there was something about no zero year, so it actually should be less one, correct?.
2520-607 = 1913
Not 1914.............What am I missing?
IT`S WATCHTOWER..
it seems that metro witnesses have beeen directed to now have a total of 5 people at each location, as well as 'encouraged' to witness on their lunch breaks, (thus being able to count their time all the way through).
these 2 things should help boost the yearly hours..
There are WBT$ Advertising Cards you can put on your hospital bedside table..
It counts as field service time..
You can literally count your FS Time in a Coma..

Brother "Can`t Wake-Up"..
IS A SPECIAL PIONEER..
what if fred franz had never existed?.
those of you who weren’t around in the days when he was the oracle of jwdom or who at least aren’t familiar with the deeper publications he was responsible for probably won’t be able to comprehend the significance of the question.
i believe he influenced jwdom greatly, and the whole feel of jwdom would have been different without him.. during the 60’s, 70’s, & 80’s (not sure about 50’s), he was considered to be almost superhuman by some (a lot?
Another WBT$ Idiot Would Take His Place..What if Fred Franz had never existed?

WatchTower World..
i can't be too sure, because i didn't answer, but my mother had called me this morning and said this week is our co visit.. it's been a while since i last had elders at my door.
last time that happened, i posted about it, so it was only a few months.. i really don't want to talk with them.
is there a chance i'll be announced as "no longer one of..." after he's left if i don't?.
They`ll forget about you,the moment they knock on another door..
this is a little long, but stick with me.. if you recall, when the building work was in full swing at the new lakefront villa (warwick), wt was having workers come and they would put them up for a year, or more, while they were providing "volunteer services".
with that, and the impending need for hundreds and hundreds of new khs in the usa territory, the congregations were abuzz with the need for "continued construction volunteers".
recently, as many of you know, wt headquarters has sent pretty much everyone home, and is no longer needing workers at the new warwick site, as the building is mostly complete, with the dedication coming up later this year.
When Watchtower..
Retires/Fires You After Years Of Loyal Service..
They Give You a "Go Away!" Gift..

Honestly you did just gloss over an important part. That Watchtower told them not to put all their eggs in one basket......RO
No the Watchtower did not tell them that.....Tech49 did
(we talked with them right before they left, and told them basically to enjoy themselves, but to be careful, dont put all your eggs in one basket,.....Tech49
i do not post ot topics on here but i think this could relate to the jw cult because i remember a brother gave a talk long time ago and he said that jehovah would never allow man or science to play with crossing genes and if humans start to do this then we need to find a new religion.
well.... here it is.. now i also want to say, if jehovah cared so much about all this human suffering then why does science seem to be the one who actually cares about fixing thing?
jehovah does nothing.
so, you left because of a bad example(s).. why all the whining?
nothing better to do with your time?.
you at least know far more about the bible than any church-goer?.
