we are so glad that you have joined our board!! If in anyway we can help you to help your b-i-l extricate himself from this cult...ask away!!!!

I'm afraid that any questions I ask he takes as a sign that I am interested in joining and not as a sign that his belief confuses me and I am trying to make sense of it

Exactly!!!!

This is what JW's do...it is what we were brainwashed to do!!! They will never participate in a constructive conversation about religion in general-----they are not allowed to!!

It is almost as though you are talking to someone in a trance if you try to discuss anything religious - after all, they believe only they have the 'true' religion - and all of mankind who doesn't listen to their doctrines is dead at the big A image

The trouble is, you say he is getting baptized this weekend so this may come to late for him - once he does the deadly deed, they have got him where they want him - in total subservience to the Watchtower Bible and Tract Soc.. NOT to God!! The trouble is then......anything he does that goes against the JW rulebook - will result in him being 'cut-off' from his new-found 'friends' and, as many on here have experienced.....being shunned and humiliated image

Sorry to be so blunt, but as you will have ascertained, from reading many of our stories, it is a dangerous religion and can cause long-lasting damage to peoples lives image

At least you will be fore-warned from having any association with them!!

Nice to see you here
