I remember a couple years back I got some emails with illustrations and stories about Jehovah. I googled them, and sure enough, the originals were from "Christendom" websites. Someone had changed "Lord" to Jehovah. But when I told the car groups in service and I even printed them out from the "Christendom" website, they said it didnt matter, what mattered is that the experiences and illustrations were "encouraging." One of them was the C.O.'s wife. Then I tried telling the C.O. himself. He pretended to be interested, but didn't address it directly, he said, "Yes we need to be careful about those emails." In fact, he used one of them in his talk!!!! (The one about the young man who was mad at his Dad and wanted his convertible, the Dad gave him a Bible instead, years later the son finally opened the Bible - and there were the keys to the convertible. This story is on several Church websites.)
Now suppose I had told the car groups that I loved to read the great illustrations and experiences on a Christendom website!!! Yep, I would be in BIG TROUBLE.
That's another one of the things that got me thinking......
THE POINT IS, PEOPLE, remember when you are trying to talk to your JW family and friends. All you need to do is to say, "I support the Faithful Slave. And this is a really interesting point about the UN and the Society. But I support the Society."
Almost all of the Witnesses I talk to in service and at dinners and WT studies and stuff, they all let the "wall" down and talk about everything and anything, as long as the basic support of the Society is there.
This is how to bring it all crashing down.
In my opinion.
