snakeface,
As you probably realize by now, it's all about control. The control is based on fear and intimidation. Their judicial methods are held in secret with the usual 3 JC beating up on 1 accused, in order to terrorize the isolated victim. Although they claim that it is scriptural, in Ancient Israel, all trials were to be public... at the city gate. Testimony would be given in public, the accused would be defended, and the judges would be held accountable to public opinion. In the case of Corinthians, Paul spoke openly in the letter about the details of the wrongdoing, which was a public scandal. Teenagers sneaking a kiss is hardly a public scandal and public opinion would tell those judges to leave the kids alone and stop the filthy questioning. But JW JCs don't work that way. The JC is to inspire fear and obedience. The closest thing recorded in the Bible is the secret trial of Jesus... which easily leads us to the conclusion that if Jesus were to appear today and disagree with the JW establishment, they would appoint a JC, have a secret meeting and DF him for apostasy. They'd kill him if they had the authority.
And if I haven't welcomed you already... welcome snakeface!
