By the way Amnesian, I caught your sarcasm! I laughed out loud. Have you considered working for the writing department (on a contract basis only, of course)?

Edit:
Shutterbug, this "QFR" was just my facetious sarcasm at play. Even while a loyal JW I always deeply resented the Society's force feeding us our "conscientious" decisions/judgements all the while craftily conveying the impression, through tricky wording, that Jehovah, and not we as individuals nor the organization , was doing the judging. The very appearance of any subject matter in a WT publication invariably assures that they already have an organizational position they're not merely suggesting but are ramming down the throats of JWs who'd better adopt the very same or else.

The Apostate Fighters - what a laugh...sounds like some opponents in the boxing ring in Las Vegas. How stupid...Watchtower fellas, you are the most ignorant, stupid, arrogant, pathetic excuses for human beings!

Wouldn't it be a hoot to author some "ambiguously apostate" articles that find their way into the mags? The dim bulbs could scratch their noodles trying to discern whether they were, indeed, receiving new light and the sharper ones would laugh their arses off "discerning" there'd obviously been a coup on Mt. Zion.

Gee, it wouldn't be that hard to create a complete spoof magazine. Somehow, I don't think our articles would get through the editors at Bethel. Unless they really are sleeping on the job. Hmmm. You have activated my creative gene.
I would like to see an article on:
Sports: heroes or idols? We could include a lovely shot of a catholic sports hero praying, hopefully with a crucifix in his hand. http://www.gnpcb.org/catalog/tracts.sports

Ok, so with us it is "Bitterness, pride or greed" that motivates us huh!
Bitter - over what? nothing before I stopped belieiving and started thinking
Pride? - too proud to swallow their baloney any more . Not pride just common sense . Incidentally it takes humility to admit that we have been wrong most our lives and be willing to listen to new ideas.
Greed ? for what ? I had good reason to stay where I was and receive the benefits of social standing , association and an easier home life . These we have given up for what Ray Franz called "Crisis of Conscience" . Our conscience won't let us say things we don't believe, thats all.
