Question From Readers reveals dependent state of JWs

Wow. Well, perhaps there are groups that are a bit more controlling...

One thing can be certain, letting a highly controlling religious sect of any domination create and make critical thinking skills for you is

is bound to be detrimental to that individual in the long run.

Ones better off asking a tree for guidance and advise.

I never beleived that this questions were really from readers.

When you join the WBT$ Cult "Jehovah`s Witness`s..

It`s manditory that..

You say Good-Bye to your Brain..

I'm of the opinion that a lot of the QFR are made up.

I forgot how laughable some of these "questions" are. These are all very recent.

But I have always had serious doubts if these "questions from readers" were not really just made-up fakes by the writers at Brooklyn.

I myself also wondered if some of those Questions from Readers were 'planted' by somebody in HQ.

I think I remember Ed Dunlap telling me years ago that a lot of these questions were either so heavily edited as to be essentially made up or were picked and chosen from years of input to make whatever point the magazine writers wanted at the time.

I would not be surprised at all if they were deliberately made to look as if the questioner was really stupid and the WTS so great and wise. In any case, this is BAD, plainly and absolutely BAD. The people might not ask these questions, but the leaders do intend them to serve as guidance for others. I've never been a JW, but I can tell you that, whenever a witness gave me a magazine, I always thought those questions weren't real. I know the answer, but for the sake of a rethorical question, I wonder what a witness can do if he thinks those questions are fakes. He has to accept them as if they weren't. I also see a subtle command here. "This is what you should do: ask how you need to behave".
