Jesus gave the example for EVERYTHING, including baptism, which as otheres here have said, he was 30 years old. Baptising CHILDREN into this cult, can be a death certificate. They can give their few little BULLSHIT examples, of this one who was baptised at 6 yrs old, and that one baptised at 8 yrs old, but we know the reality to be much, much different.
Being that JW's HAVE the WORST retention rate, of members, and from certain CO's own words, "the children are leaving in droves", obviouslly, their policy of baptising younger and younger IS NOT WORKING. The reality is that children are being baptised in thru the front door, and DF'd out the back door. If this wasn't such a detrimental process, to human beings, by them losing friends, family, support groups, then it wouldnt matter. The fact is, however, that it DOES matter.
These are peoples LIVES, being played with, and they are mind screwing children. Hiltler himself, knew the "value" of getting them when they are young, cause then you OWN them for life. He instituted the Hitler youth programs, strictly for the recruitment of the young, and hence to CONTROL them.
The WTS, is acting just like Hitler during WW2, in their recruiting of the children for control. In this day and age, a person in their EARLY 20's, doesnt even know who they are, or what they want to do with their lives. How can the WTS expect an 11 year old, 12 year old, or even a 16 to 17 year old, to TRULY KNOW what a dedication of their LIFE is to anything, let alone an invisible spirit presence. Its a joke, but its NOT funny, because peoples lives are RUINED because of it. It shows just how out of touch the ORG is with how life is today, and the world we live in.
If the grown men, running this org, beleive that even a teenager, let alone an 11 or 12 year old, knows what they are doing with a dedication to a God, then they are so far out of touch, its criminal.
