Why is it only a few of them and not ALL of the remaining Annointed,that make the rules for the Organization to follow?
If it is indeed the "Remnant" that is SO important

Because they're a cult.

It isn't the remnant that is SO important, it is the GB.
Haven't you been studying your WT, Purps? You are a very naughty girl.
There was an article on this about a year ago.
Your rank & file annointed is just another Dubbie.

I read a book on cults that did not consider large groups, including JWs, cults because the leadership of large groups is held accountable by the membership.
We all know that that is not true for the WT.
Allowing 'annointed' rank & file JWs to have a say in how the asylum is run would cost the chief inmates their power.

I'm sorry, but how is the leadership - GB - of the WTS held accountable by the R&F?

Only the GB has "special insight". I think V did a video on this question.

Quite how the Governing Body, a group of men specially selected from among the 'faithful and discreet slave' or anointed class, can claim to have 'special insight' when they wrote a magazine article which made it clear that the anointed class (who make up the FDS) do not have any special insight.
When does that change? When does someone from the FDS or anointed class get that 'special insight'? Is it when they get their HQ office? How does it happen? How do they know the 'insight' is 'special'? Where exactly does the 'insight' come from?
All valid Qs, IMO.

Just as the first christians were considered in the eyes of unfaithful Jews as a sect ( a cult ) - Acts 28.22.This has to be the same in our times if our times are really the endtime era . We must have a repetition of what had happened before when true christianity existed.
For many new truths of the endtimes go to:
google groups like alt.bible and alt.apocalypse and get one my post and click on " more options " and then on "find messages by this author " and you will get a list of my posts there .
Also visit exjwchat.com with his subforum : Conspiracy Theory The End of Times Predictions,Jesus 2.0 and study my posts there.
You should read some book on how an organization functions . If there is a remnant of say 7000 people would you like all these to be in the board of directors in the organization or rather 7 people would be enough ?
What determines the remnant is God's chosen few is that they are to teach and through them nations come to God Yahweh by faith in Jesus Christ.
