Marilyn. I'm with you. A few times I've thought that to be fair I should try reading some of the literature. But I cannot! I get so annoyed and frustrated. I want to find a JW and point to the words and sentences and say, "Can't you SEE?"

And how they all manage to write in the same style amazes me.

It also amazes me that I can almost follow along blindly if I wanted to. Weird. If I wanted to, I could probably just about finish most sentences.

Blind obedience, blind to reason. It is scary. the one thing I'm grateful for in raising my children as JW's is that they all got away from it and can see through the WTS and the literature and the people. There is little to no danger that any of them will wind up being JW's.

That doesn't mean they'll always be sterling human beings. I have four kids who, so far, are living decent lives. I hope they always will. But I also realize that people are fallible and can mess up big time. I hope none of them do, but ya never know. The WTS wouldn't protect them from that.
