This story details my coming of age in a mind controlling religious cult familiar to many, but mis-understood by most. Jehovah's Witnesses. The great majority of my life was spent trying to live up to and meet requirements built on fear and control. Every fiber of my being expressed a strong desire to get out, to live life on my own accord, to experience the world in all its glory without the fear and control of religion. It would take years for me to reach my plateau of discontent. I would find myself on the outside looking in, no family, friends or support of any kind. I would also find a large global landscape waiting for me. How would I proceed? What fears would I overcome? How would I move, how could I move. This story, my story details my journey, in all its darkness, followed by the glorious light I live in this moment. Its not just about religion. Its about overcoming with sheer will the challenges, the fears, the roadblocks others and many times, we ourselves put in our way. Whether you believe in God or not, we as human being all have the will, in different doses, what will you do to summon yours?

Originale, insolite, renaissante, l'action religieuse émergente bouscule les habitudes, ébranle les certitudes, construit ici, maintenant, l'autre monde. Peut-on courir le risque ? Voilà que la question se pose et se résout en rumeurs publiques, poursuites judiciaires et tensions scolaires, lesquelles mettent à nu des mécanismes inédits d'institutionnalisation de l'expérience religieuse en modernité groupes tactiques d'intervention, cellules gouvernementales de crise, commissions parlementaires, cercles technocratiques précurseurs d'une ingénierie pluraliste. Sur fond de traditions religieuses, nationales ou républicaines, avec la perspective de la menace sectaire, s'esquisse sous nos yeux un religieux correct, acceptable. Comment est-il possible aujourd'hui d'inscrire l'exceptionnel, l'originel, le merveilleux, le transcendant religieux dans le quotidienne ? Et dans quelle mesure, paradoxalement, les gestionnaires de dieux ne repoussent-ils pas toujours plus loin la frontière religieuse ? -- By their nature, emerging religions explore unfamiliar territory and probe unchartered regions of human creativity. For these same reasons, religious transactions that venture beyond the boundaries of traditional religious frontiers often rouse suspicion, anxiety or even fear among the general population. As new religious movements seek to carve out their own niche in society, public controversy and opposing beliefs can spark bitter debates, and can even lead to calls for state intervention. How then do new or borderline religious groups negotiate or mediate the building of public space? What impact can the media have on new religions? How does the law withstand the "creative destruction" of religious innovation? In this provocative collection of essays, twelve experienced specialists break new ground in the sociological study of religion. Publié en français

A Catholic Response to the Jehovahs Witnesses is a departure from the authors usual subject of books and articles on aspects of Catholic spirituality. Having met with many Witnesses over the years, she was prompted to write the book as a response to them. It also addresses the concern many Catholics have as to how to engage with Witnesses and how they might evaluate their teachings. It is written in an informal style to introduce readers to the various aspects of the doctrines of the Jehovahs Witnesses, and how a Catholic might respond to them from their own tradition and the theology of the Catholic Church.

What would happen if I accepted an invitation to Bible Study from Jehovah's Witnesses? What would attending a Kingdom Hall meeting involve? And if I invited door-knocking Witnesses into my home? This book introduces Jehovah's Witnesses without assuming prior knowledge of the Watch Tower organization. After outlining the Society's origins and history, the book explains their key beliefs and practices by taking the reader through the process of the seeker who makes initial contact with Witnesses, and progresses to take instruction and become a baptized member. The book then explores what is involved in being a Witness – congregational life, lifestyle, rites of passage, their understanding of the Bible and prophetic expectations. It examines the various processes and consequences of leaving the organization, controversies that have arisen in the course of its history, and popular criticisms. Discussion is given to the likelihood of reforms within the organization, such as its stance on blood transfusions, the role of women and new methods of meeting and evangelizing in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
