Ok, so I only read the WT study articles to keep up with the indoctrination that my two "still-in" children are being subjected to.
When I read this in today's WT I nearly blew a gasket:
[Naboth] held to Jehovah’s Law in the face of horrific abuse of power. (Num. 36:7; 1 Ki. 21:3) His example thus speaks to us because any one of us may face persecution for similar reasons. (Read 2 Timothy 3:12.) - [Emphasis added]
I gotta' tell you, maybe I've been more fortunate than others, but pretty much THE ONLY ONGOING ABUSE OF POWER I'VE EVER HAD TO DEAL WITH IN MY ENTIRE LIVE HAS BEEN FROM THE WTBTS!
I trusted these fuckers and they lied to me, to all of us. How hypocritical of them to write offensive words like this when they themselves are guilty of the atrocities which they denounce?
The leadership of the WTBTS should be held accountable for their crimes against countless millions of people.
Since I've left the organization I've pretty much become an atheist. If there is a "god," he/she/it is certainly nothing like the childish, bronze-age desert god depicted in the Bible.
Sometimes I feel a little cheated that there isn't such a god, for he surely would severely punish the likes of the self-appointed "Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses" for their many lies, hypocrisies and errors.
But there isn't such a god and there is no one to hold them accountable. The only thing we can do is to live our own life and learn to trust ourselves.
