Oh, I think many reforms could take place in the WTS, if they could admit and apologize that there were gross errors. What REALLY tips me off to their not being God's org is that they lie about the past.
Even the Catholic Church has reformed a LOT, but never had to deny the basic tenets of their faith. The Pope has apologized for atrocities of the past and acknowledged the sordid past, not trying to hide it.
So, I don't see why the WTS would have to deny the tenets of their faith in order to reform. They could change some of their abhorant practices, apologize for the pain they've caused people, face up to what they've done, then get on with things. They might even grow stronger.
