goldensky,
Didn't you think the "Witness" mother in that video seemed awfully, I dunno, sour, every time she was shown anywhere outside of a Kingdom Hall? I tried to give this video the benefit of the doubt but it seemed almost preternaturally manipulative to me.
What I thought was most telling about the DVD was that the coach was the most poignant character in the video (much more so than creepy Brother Auschwitz) and had the wisest line in the program: "Son, you have a gift. A GOD-GIVEN gift. Don't waste it".
And, of course, the propaganda piece ultimately came down on the side of the Organization: There really isn't any worthwhile career outside of full-time door-knocking.
Which, though unsaid, ultimately expresses the opposite of human emotion and logic, namely: You have God-given gifts. THROW THEM AWAY because we say so.
Can anyone really argue with this conclusion?
