Hello friends its me, MutualRespectPlease. I messed up my earlier registration, so now I am MRP2. I have been doing a bunch of research on the different responses I got from you regarding my posts from the beginning of August. The first one is the United Nations NGO. I am working on the Barbara Anderson CD now. but back to the NGO.
I don’t think what they did was wrong.
I read tons of stuff, not just two or three websites. I read the UN Charter, the requirements for an NGO, the Society’s responses both here and in England, some of the past forums here.
Why do I not think the Society was wrong?
What were they trying to accomplish? Running for political office? Trying to become members of the U.N.? I get the feeling you are all looking for any reason to blast the WTS. I think if you step back and look at the whole picture, you can see that the WTS is trying to gain religious freedoms and rights in Europe. There are laws and organizations and meetings and judgments involved. Are any of you experts on those laws? How would YOU go about getting preaching “legally established”? It’s easy to jump on the bandwagon and say WTS is hypocritical but how would YOU do it in Europe?
No one on these forums seems to address that the goal here was to establish rights to preach in those countries. The WTS is not just sitting down in an office doing nothing and waiting, they are trying and trying. And you guys are criticizing them? Do you think that’s fair? Do you think that they are benefiting somehow from doing this? Are they getting money? Prestige? Power? No one on these forum ever addresses the fact that individuals in the WTS are not getting rich or powerful, as is the case with cults.
I lived in Bethel, I have been in their rooms, I have been on cheapo flights with them, I have seen them go to work everyday for no money. I have driven with them in their gross old cars, or driven in those Buicks that they don’t own with a Bethel driver. Big deal. So if some of you would just sit back and think MOTIVE then you would realize that the WTS is just trying their best, and is not perfect. Check out any other organization that is a cult and you will see the guys at the top getting RICH and POWERFUL.
Not this one.
Give me some names of those in the WTS that are getting rich people, or cut the easy point-the-finger criticism.
