Just to be clear, it was not the holding of hands that was the issue. It was that fact that the rank-and-file sheeple, who are not allowed to think, started doing so. " If Job was in the paradise with his wife, holding hands affectionaltely, then what..." That type of thinking must be nipped at the bud, before it grows. The speed in which the e-mail from HQ was sent and the drama changed, in relation to performance of the drama that featured Job and his Wife together is startling. The questioning by the R&F was silenced, and changes took effect in a week or less. Any awake JW reading this should be alarmed.
What happens when the GB/FDS send an e-mail to Elders with very specific instructions that affect your family? The sheeple have been conditioned to obey without question. They will obey very people who refused to obey the law in Australia to protect children. The real issue is the speed at which these changes took place, and that they were accepted without question. I find it very disturbing.
