    The majority have good jobs,drive newer vehicles,have nice homes,go on vacations.All in all they have the smarts.

    However,when it comes to their religion,they are dummer than a sack of hammers.They drive around in circles to get two hours of service time.They can't differentiate what the fds/gb say is from jehovah god,when in reality it is the stuff that comes out of a horses ass.What the horse eats(as it were food at the proper time from the gb) comes out of the horse as manure(shit sounds better) as a loving provision from jehovah.

    Its very well explained by Steven Hassen. Have you read any of his books? The explaination is that the WBT$ uses the B.I.T.E. Method. I urge you to investigate what it is and why it is so effective.

    what is there to understand? IMO the active JW who is blind to TTATT has an average I.Q. of 85.

    They All suffer from Cognitive Dissonance

    IQ has nothing to do with whether a person is in a cult.

    Primal fears, such as dying and losing all of your friends and family drive obedience to the leaders of the religion. If you can alleviate a cultists fears, you can get them to look at things in a more objective manner.

    What's to understand, there is no imperative on religion to make sense.

    That is probably one of the lesser known commandments;

    "You shalt not make sense, lest you get called out on thou bull shit"

    JWs are simply one of the more clearcut examples of how religious people in general have two parts to their gray matter: Decisions about everyday living occupy a distinctly different region of the brain from the part that is vulnerable to believing and/or going along with bullsh*t.

    synergy at work here, in such a way that your religion also pays, enhances your finances one way or another, or hedge betting, in case there is something to this "reward after death" thing.

    Repetition for emphasis.
