Governing Body Always Saying Obey Us Even If We Are Wrong,, Have They No Shame?

Balaamsass

They are Proud, haughty, Self-assuming, have no natural affection, have an outward "form" of godly devotion.... etc... need we say more???

Do you have some quotes on where the WTS says that?

They have always been like this. I remember soon after the September 2007 Kingdumb Misery, they were harping that, even if you can prove them wrong using their own LIE-ble, you still had to abide by (i.e., obey) and teach the bad doctrine until they themselves fix it (or, if they make an even worse doctrine, you have to abide by--obey--and teach the even worse doctrine). And even that was nothing new--they had that attitude as long as I can remember.

I think the best quote for this is from the Olin Moyle trial:

" Unity at all costs " - Haydon C. Covington

Unity based upon an enforced acceptance of false prophecy.

I guess that means they have the ability to forgive us our sins in acting contrary to the scriptures so long as we did so under their tutelage. We are, after all, their property. We are theirs to control and manipulate. We are theirs to condemn or forgive.

Wow! Who knew?

They have no shame in that WT leaders have always written " even if you don't understand the reasons the Society prints information trust the " faithful slave " because they are God's spokesmen giving food at the proper time ". Translation : Exactly. Obey us even if YOU think we are wrong because we won't admit it - you'll have to figure it out for yourself.

Yes, it annoys me . Yes, it irritates me because I still have plenty of JW family still in this crap being duped by the WT Society. And yes it irritates me because like I've stated plenty of times on this board the WT Society is a conniving, criminal and criminal harboring, unethical, inhumane organization that has cost peoples lives, children , and $$$$. Leaders of the WT Society should be brought up on charges of fraud, extortion and murder and aiding and abetting criminal sexual child abuse then locked up and the key thrown away. Peace out, mr. Flipper

They are God' sole channel of communication, they don't have to apologize.
