you see the little problem one has when it comes to organized religion is that someone must lay hold to the claim that "GOD WHISPERS IN MY EAR AND NOT YOURS"
How true.
This is the real problem with any odd notion of "reforming" the Society. You can't have it both ways, being led by "God" ( through the GBs "ears") and being led by the voice of the people, as has been suggested.
Sorry, but I can't envision a day when the Borg will relinquish any power (not saying they won't "pretend to")OVER the JWs.
The other HUGE problem remains: that 95% of the teachings are based on twisting the scriptures with a JW mindset, and don't accurately reflect what the BIBLE is saying, it reflects what the SOCIETY says, and there's a vast difference.
Thier false teachings and oppressive tactics are being exposed. Remember the scripture in Revelation....the one that says GET OUT OF HER MY PEOPLE, if you don't want to share in her sins? I think about that one a lot........
As for me and MY household.......we're OUT!
