WLG,
Good job on gutting your way through the material. Don't worry about the nausea, it will pass soon. Mine did after last week's lesson. Just think of diving the Sambos with me next year, it should help.

You have to learn how any organization works . There are basic principles of existence for any organization.
If you read the Watchtower publications you may decide you agree with what they write and be of the mind by joining the organization.
All people in organization are expected to be one-minded ,united in one set of doctrines .That is why the organization exists and the unity sustains the organization. The unity can be of the paramount importance especially when a given organization is in the hostile environment . Check the history of the Soviet Union how the state came into existence and kept going in a very hostile environment from within and outside that country. It seems to me that many people ( they must be young not knowing the history well or not experiencing it well ) have no idea what they are writing about. The Jehovah Witness organization must and should be governed by very strict rules . If you don't like it you can go on your own and put yourself at risk . You cannot fight the people who want to stay in the organization and put their own ideas if any and stick to what the Watchtower is teaching them. Originally they surrendered their independence to be in the organization as one unified body of believers . If that unity is broken the whole organization will cease to exist.
You can see that what has happened to the former Soviet Union .Or look at Iraq how the unity was kept when Sadam was in power and what has happned later on. Why the Communist China is attacking Dai Lama who desires and independence for Tibetans ? The Chinese government knows that DaI Lama may break up the whole country if his wishes are satisfied. What happened to the Soviet Union once the one or two republics began to fight for independence ?! Why Russia is not allowing Chechna to become a new independent state ? One person already poses a danger to the whole big country that is China. Before you start attacking Jehovah's Witness organization read the books how organizations come into existence and how they function in very hostile environment.You are not solving a problem with your independent thinking you may be creating a problem ! Go to the history books and learn to think with common sense !

If that unity is broken the whole organization will cease to exist.
Are you saying that would be a bad thing?
What I cannot help but marvel at is the picture on page 21. Is this a depiction of first century Jerusalem? The wife and husband are both home and come to the door. The doorway is white and freshly painted? Are they kidding? Those people had no time to stand leisurely listening to someone talk in the middle of the day. They had constant chores to do in order to live. And why are they dressed so nicely? Surely the man tends to his fields and animals and the woman to her scrubbing and baking and cleaning and whatever else they did in old clothes and not beautiful clothes as they are wearing in the picture.
Maybe I am mistaken, but I also thought that first century Jerusalem was a rough, hard life.

OBVES,
seriously, if you like being a brainless, non-thinking sheeple, then go be a witnoid.
It won't take much for you to settle into the zombie zone and fit right in with the other brainless twits.
Independent thinking is for humans. Unified thinking is for slaves and cult-members.
Go be a slave for the WTBTS then, make them some more money-
they are losing followers by the thousands
