  Watchtower-1983-December-1-p.29 “While many Christians speak of the Gospel in terms that seem unrelated to what’s happening in the real world and while many separate their spiritual lives from their social and intellectual life, the Witnesses’ religion dominates everything they do." http://www.wirefiles.com/show.php/8750_dominates10001.jpg Cheers!

  "the Witnesses’ religion dominates everything they do."
  
  And notice it's not God or Jesus or the Bible that dominates them -- it's the RELIGION. Finally, a honest-to-goodness Watchtower truth.

  The WTS does dominate its members with a lot of negative emotions like fear and false expectations. It is not a healthy kind of domination as they may wish to imply in that statement eg their influence in discouraging youths from going to university.

  It should be about serving Christ not belonging to a religion that dominates you - this is where organisation goes beyond its mandate of being a tool for the people to use and becoming the centre of power, abitrating its rules on its followers.

  Wow Atlantis,

  Good Work!! Certainly doesn't sound like a definition of a "SLAVE" does it?? More like a "MASTER"!! So is Jesus the "Master", or is the "Society"?? HHMMM..It is like they have made themselves a Mediator!!!

  Sincerely,

  Lady Liberty

  (Ecclesiastes 8:9) 9 All this I have seen, and there was an applying of my heart to every work that has been done under the sun, [during] the time that man has dominated man to his injury.
