Aren't Jehovah's Witnesses really standing in front of the LIGHT and blocking it?

Terry is right on......here's a quote from Eric Hoffer written in the early 1950's that proves the adage about great minds......
"An active mass movement rejects the present and centers it's interest on the future. It is from this attitude that it derives it's strength, for it can proceed recklessly with the present- with the health, wealth and lives of it's followers. But it must act as if it has already read the book of the future to the last word. Its doctrine is proclaimed as a key to that book." He wasn't talking about JW's........ never even mentions them in his book The True Believer but he taught me more about the WT Society and what to be leery of way back when.

What an insightful post, thank you very much.
It is so true, that doctrine "light" for living will block out the Scriptural light for a joyful life.
It's like a cartoon I saw of a person sitting in front of a laptop, listening to headphones, a TV nearby, and radio and could not hear the Shepherd due to all the noise.

Hey, Terry - Can't find your topic to post this on but just ordered hardback copy of your book, finally. Thanks for posting the links because I didn't want the e-book version.
Your book is going in the library (under construction) right next to Ray Franz's "Crisis" in the section 'Books by Bros.' Just for show, I might have a platinum-engraved indicator above them. Can't wait to fill the row up with addition of my athiest collection thanks to Cofty's numerous lists for us and your suggestions. I know there's others who've referenced great books, also, and I thank all of the them.
Wish you much success w/your book.
