Many elders have trained publishers to look up
articles by using the Index or the Watchtower Library,
thus assisting their brothers and sisters to
reason on the Scriptures. Such assistance helps
publishers not only to address their immediate
concerns but also to develop a habit of doing
research and relying on Jehovah’s spiritual provisions.
Pretty interesting stuff...kind of goes along with the article a few months ago that says "Quit bothering us, we don't have time to answer all of your silly questions here at the branch." The problem is they have created this monster by their claim of "truth" in every aspect of life. These poor JWs are simply trained to ask whether or not they can do this or that, and if they don't know the answer off of the top of their head they simply call the elders. They don't want to end up in the back room, getting harassed for making the wrong decision on so called "matters of conscience." Their legalism continues to come back and bit them in the ass.
