Yes praise Allah, the theocratic government of Iran today has anounced which haircuts are banned. Ponytails and mullet cuts will get you punished...{also the Jewish cut is out he he}....doesn't it make you glad the Witnesses don't have there own country. Barbers and hairstylists are happy.
The "Theocratic" government of IRAN anounced today haircuts which are banned like Mullets!!! Sound theocratically familiar?

I saw this on CNN and immediately saw parallels with "Jehovah's Theocratic Order" in the congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses.
And I also thought: If 'overlapping generations' and other continual doctrine changes don't shake some dubs up, maybe this might cause some to think, 'hmmm, sounds just like my hall where the elders tell us what hair styles we can/can't have'.
How disturbing is it to be able to make such a quick correlation between Islamic theocracy and JW KH theocracy. It's those little nagging things that take root and allow bigger questions and doubts to settle in later.

Maybe this is their idea of a cover story while they stone that woman to death for supposed adultery?
It certainly gives us great hope for valuable Muslim cooperation in the space program with NASA...

Here's a wild idea...
The WBTS should buy a small country, transform it into their idea of paradise, get all of the JWs in the world to migrate there and call it Paradise Earth. If anyone refuses to migrate to this paradise on earth, they will be DF'd or auto-DA by not showing up in a certain amount of time. Then they can drink their kool-aid and sing their stupid new songs from their lame song book.
I wonder how long it would take for the first murder to take place?

Exactly. They would find out pretty quick how well a "theocratic government" actually works.
As a side note - did you know that the Scientologists actually tried to do this back in the 1970s or early 1980s by embedding themselves into a mediterranean African country and trying to take it over? They got run off pretty quickly when the real government figured out they were not philanthropists like they claimed.

No I did not know that JWoods. That's interesting. Thanks for sharing.
It would be interesting to see the reactions of people if JWs were to do this. I wonder how many peoples bullshit alarm would go off and would leave? 50%? 75%?

The funny thing is, if either Society were really a Theocracy ie "ruled by God" , I am sure that you would able to wear your hair any way that you damn well pleased !
The Almighty has got more important things to think about than the length of my hair . (I seem to remember saying that to a P/O once, when I was young)
