Does the Society rule by hypnosis?
Yes, it sounds nutty but consider - suppose you had
access to a large international audience and you
persistently bored them into a state of semi consciousness - meeting after meeting - you told
them
what to do , again and again, over and over.
I look around and see people with eyes closed, not
fully awake, not fully asleep at every convention and
assembly and public talk and service meeting.
I see an incredible
amount of compliance with
whatever the Society demands regardless of logic.
Is it possible that this boredom is essential
to their success?
