Mum needs help - Part 2!
by LostinSpace inthanks to all that responded to my post yesterday...it helped a lot..... http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=41622&site=3.
unfortunately my mother seems to have been to a meeting last night and was a complete stranger to me on the telephone last night - she has never been like that to me before - i was shocked - but i didnt "rock the boat" any more - i was calm and was compasionate, but mum was defensive and defending her beleifs and stating that i must of been mis-informed by someone about their religion.
to me this wasn't my mum - but she was just a puppet saying what she's been "told" to say by someone from kh - im adamant about that (i think i know her very well).. anyway, at least the conversation ended well, where i now have an opportunity to write (yes, you heard it) write my concerns in a letter and send it to her....my first thoughts were great...hopefully she'll be able to meet me halfway and see where im coming from...then it dawned on me..."what if she is being told what to say" - then my letter would be defended by another jw (or maybe herself.....).. this is where (hopefully) you guy's come in...where so i start?...i dont want to be over-informative in the letter - this would look like weird i think....... id like to write all the good stuff about my mum in the letter, be positive about our relationship, what we can build on etc etc, and just put a few thoughts here and there for her to ponder over about the wtbs and other issues like blood...which issues would you as exjw's put in there....remember the issue's that first made you think about the integrity of the whole org?...

Let's Infiltrate....
by integ inas i eagerly anticipate and pray for the demise of the org, i am thinking about different ways this could possibly be accomplished...one way would be from within.
i know this sounds crazy but what if some of the bethel "heavies" actually turned against the org, or are already subletly trying to bring it down from the inside.
i know this is but a dream, but it's not entirely impossible...it seems like that would be one of the only ways to expedite the process..you would start seeing veiled, insidious, anti-org "suggestions" in the mags, books, etc.

WTO cover up of dangers of orange juice
by spinner inin 1993 i stumbled upon the following in " nutritional influence on health", by dr. m. werback, ucla school of medicine and gave it to the wto, dr. carlton, chief of staff wallkill infirmary :.
ingestion of 100 grams of orange juice significantly decreased the phagocytic index in humans.. .
the study went on (in lay terms): after 5 hours of drinking orange juice, control subjects still showed immune cells (that engulf and digest bacteria ) had not gained original speed of activity.. orange juice increases the chance of infection.

Ready, set, GO
by Gig ini believe all of you will be happy to hear that a jw friend of mine is finally willing to listen to me.
i have slowly but surely been breaking off little tid-bits of info about why i can't see the one true religion thing happening with the wts.
i have resisted the tremendous urge to "let 'em have it" and patience is prevailing.

Re-Writing the Dictionary
by RunningMan inone of the techniques that the society uses to justify their errors and prophetic failures is the redefinition of words.
when they say something that turns out to be wrong, they merely go back and "clarify" their original statement, showing that what you thought it meant, didnt really mean that at all.
they say that babylon the great has "fallen", yet an objective observer could not in any way say that it fell in 1918. it has more members and wealth than it did 100 years ago.
