Taking things out of context is what the Watchtower are good at. They have made it a science. Just look at their Evolution Book, everything in their is either mis-quotes of famous people and quotes taken out of context. I understand they no longer put the reference of the quotes at the back of the book.

About evolution book, the WTS never went to university to study biological science yet their book looks scientific in makeup with impressive photos and diagrams. I think, they steal other's work in this respect.

Really, is this true. Not the article but the fact that he went back. That must have been a poorly put together website. Considering that nothing needs to be taken out of context to smear the Watchtower. It's all to easy to hand them the rope and let them hang themselves.
I think the WT made this story up. I can't type anymore the smell of

Maybe we should put together an Apostate Agument 101 for all the newbies who will be turning up here when this article is studied in March...

this article is not for those, who read regular apostate sites, even the WTS knows, that they are lost
it is for those, who are curious (which may backfire though) and for those, who stumble at apostate sites, read a few lines and are confused. They may actually believe this experience and take it as excuse, not to think further, and bury all mind troubles, and continue following blindly the GB. because anything, that may cause doubts, is just something taken out of context.
For an active, even occasional doubting JW, anything apostate is soo demonized, he would never consider reading apostate stuff. This article is designed to reinforce this thinking and to add the notion, that it is useless anyway, and it would be just an unnecessary detour on the quest for truth.

Andre's experience proves that "apostates" are no match for the sound scriptural guidance provided by the slave. I too have looked at many apostate sites but my faith has only grown in strength.
So I say to all current and prospective brothers and sisters in "the truth" . . . dig into apostate information and reasoning as much as Andre and I have . . . or more! . . . we promise it can do nothing more than hasten you back to Jehovah. It is not something to fear . . . and Andre's experience proves that . . . it's simply an opportunity to strengthen your faith by exposing clever reasoning for what it is and having all your doubts removed.
And what sort of life do those horrible bitter and twisted apostates have anyway? No doubt they are consumed by doubts and fears . . . living in a world dominated by harsh rulers, hatreds, strife, jealousy, contentions, power lust, sexual deviancy, lies, deciet, family problems, even mental health issues and suicides . . . and who would want a life like that! Most of them have been witnesses for 30 40 years or more . . . which means they have simply tired out.
For a certainty, checking apostate opinion can only do good as it did for Andre . . . just watch out for those naughty scientists, boy can they decieve!

Wow, I'd like to meet Mr. Andre. I bet he drinks Dos Equis (when he drinks beer, that is).
