I thought this article was quite interesting. Certainly as far as most JWs are concerned , even very intelligent ones just seem to have a blank spot as far as objectivity & common sense is concerned when JW matters are being discussed. The almost hypnotic Watchtower “study” where no contrary opinion is allowed would also seem to have the same effect. I remember when taking the Watchtower or reading it looking at the mainly bored , glazed over faces of the audience , most of whom just parroted word for word what the paragraph said - it was actually quite scary at times.

A very intelligent believer recently asked me to pray for a friend of his who was getting an estimate on having a car repaired.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around this. Where exactly does the Lord fit into this scenario?

If it was a Ferrari, then this might very well be in order.
