    The old line the organisation uses regarding looking at apostate literature is that it has clever and twisted reasoning that will poison minds. No matter how you argue that the truth should withstand critism they won't see it. The evidence is people read the stuff and leave. They don't get that this is because apostate literature is true - rather it confirms how damn clever these apostate lies are and so they must under no circumstances looked at.

    This is such a twisted way of thinking. Where else do they apply this logic? They'd probably agree that a court of law needs both defense and prosecution. So where is the precident outside the JW's that lies are more convincing than the truth. Is their one?
    Most witnesses would agree that any truth can withstand a barage of arguments and lies - its the way we know things are true. But in this one case - in regard to "The Truth" they have this cockeyed notion that apostates have superhuman abilites to make the truth appear like a lie. It just makes no sense whatsoever but until they look for themselves - which most won't - they will continue with this most inconsistant viewpoint.

    The W.T.S makes lies appear to be truth.

    It is hard to convince anyone of anything, especially if they arent even allowed to examine the evidence. The W.T.S sure covers their tracks. Everything that could possibly help anyone escape from the Organization is a sin. How clever of them.

    Arrogant isn't it?

    What they're saying is that the publishers are not intelligent enough to decide for themselves and make their own judgements.

    Reminds me of the phrase that I often heard JW men use on their wives: "don't worry your pretty little head about it dear."
