  the reason for the request is because the poster has need to remain completely anonymous.

  i agreed to share the email because i knew you would find stevens reply informative and interesting.. .

  Thank you for bumping cultBgone...

  What is interesting to me, is that after having seen every minute of that Royal Commission hearing, and all the explanations of WT lawyers, service deskers, anywho-ers saying, "Geoffrey Jackson will be of no use to you", to find out that HE was involved at the beginning of this Steven Unthank thing.... He knew all about it, and sided with the 'Borg.'

  How sad, but not unexpected, to have WT lawyers act like cold-hearted, 'we always win', 'you will be nothing' lawyers.

  Piece by piece, the evidence shows the WT conglomerates are not spiritual men.

  Thank you Steven Unthank for hanging in there!

  how many here have been asked the loyalty question by an elder.

  i am referring to, "do you believe that jehovah is using the faithful and discreet slave class to accomplish his work?

  " or something along this line?.

  then out of the blue he tells me; .

  I have to agree with problemaddict2.... I think that MOST of the younger "generation" do not know understand or are interested in the old doctrines and intricacies of anything that is complicated or convoluted....

  A social club it is...... Especially if they are raised in this psychopathic lifestyle.... Those new kids/ apostates from Canada, who've been making YouTube videos understand the ins and the outs, but I wonder how many really do?

  I liked this quote:

  "One such group is Jehovah's Witnesses, according to cult expert and counsellor, Raphael Aron, director of cult consulting in Australia, and author of Cults Too Good To Be True. (Harper Collins, Australia 1989); and Cults, Terror and Mind Control. (Bay Tree Publications, California 2007).

  Particularly interested in 'shunning', a practice that devalues, humiliates and disfellowships members from their organisation"

  Today's Special Day Assembly Expenses and the $10,499 Deficit. Silent Majority?

  by Tenacious in

  today i attended a one-day assembly in my hometown.

  i knew when it came time to read the afternoon expenses that it would be an incredibly high and ridiculous amount that was nowhere near the real expenses for that day.

  sure enough, after lunch came the announcement.

  $11,000? ..... Did they make an announcement that they would like to send the leftovers to "Mother"? Did they ask for a consensus? and did everyone clap?

  If you are going to believe in the Bible, you need to ask, 'Why would God need to "change light"?' Give "new" light?

  Another scripture says, "Satan is an angel of light"

  JWs always wonder, "What "new light" will we get at this year's convention?"

  The term "Apostate" is used like a cross to keep evil spirits away.

  Having a problem understanding? Can't explain? Don't know how to answer?

  Call the source an 'apostate', and everything is all better again. You don't have to think about it anymore. Done..... Gone.....

  just want to say hi and a big thank you to all that post in this site.

  it has been extremely tough waking up as a born.

  but in slowly removing any doubts about leaving this man made religion.

  I agree with all before me, and from my observations (looking back in life... even within JWville) it does take about 2 years to develop a good friendship. Like AudeSapere said, invite yourself to join your workmates for coffee, or an outing. Having fun with someone is the beginning of everything!

  Grrrrrr..... so sorry your mom treats you like that! I would not have done so to my child even if I was a JW and they were DF'd. It seems that there are treatments to help you with your condition, hugs to you, grrrrrrs to your mom ;-)

  PS: I am not DF'd, I just don't go to meetings, and wished that Candace Conti would win her court trial so that the WT would change it's policies, and my mom treats me as if I am DF'd. Very controlled by the Borg.
