Ideas to wake up the JW 'Feelers'
by Captain Obvious ina great point was made by neverknew on another thread about certain doctrinal issues will cause a 'thinker' to wake up, but a 'feeler' will just shrug and carry on.

Have you ever given CoC to a JW to read? Or any other "red pill" book?

Jehovah's Witnesses - Faith In Action Part 2 - thoughts?

Wifey is getting into audiobooks...
by Captain Obvious inso i'm a huge audible fan.
i'm always plowing through an audiobook about history, religion, science or money.
imo, no one could ever read/listen to my library and continue to be religious or ignorant of natural history.
