Why doesn't the majority win?

    I'm sure that most of the JW's think that there are too many meetings a week.

    I'm sure that most of the JW's find that the end is coming later than expected and don't dare talk about this openly.

    I'm sure that most of the JW's don't believe everything they are taught.

    I'm sure we could add more and more to this list.

    So, why is it that the majority of JW's are being led by a very few, and afraid to stand up to them on any topic.

    Because they know they'll receive the divine ax and keep cut off from God's "Organization".

    There should be a "union" in every congregation, to fix what bugs the majority.

    Unionized Christian Congregation Members of Jehovah Witnesses......

    Can you say brainwashed? Many don't have the mental capacity to get into a bowling league where there are worldly people who are having fun.

    It's not a democracy -- it's a theocracy!

    Democracy = Rule by the people

    Theocracy = Rule by God other people

    I think you are a bit too sure about those things. I have given up second-guessing what motivates people, especially Witnesses. I have been wrong too many times.

    But I am sure I could be wrong about that too.

    It all has to do with mass psychology and the coercive manipulation that persuades them not to be antagonistic to the leaders so as not to anger jehovah, lose their share in paradise and eternal life, get marked or expelled as disobedient to the god appointed FDS and a whole spider web of fear inducing ideas.

    The critical point however where many will decide to come out at once and challenge the GB authority and above all its legitimacy may somehow happen one day and it will be like an avalanche, they will say we had enough of this unprofitable to us (but not to them) nonsense.

    Until then they will be docile and pathetic.

    The masses will huddle together and do all that the leader asks hate the leader, complain about the leader.............and it all works.....think about it.
