gorby went to the kh for family reasons today.. and landed right away middle in a pseudo history watchtower article.
just that aspect of the jw belief he is so sensative about.. so 1918 and 1919 are changed with one mark of a pencil.
the argument of change was in the past the argument of the doctrine.
I was still a teenager in the 70s
And I remember quite clearly being upset
At learning and memorizing points
That were all changed in the latest issue of the Watchtower
I thought it my responsibility to know the information well
To relay it to the people I was studying with
After all lives were involved
Truth be told
We didn't know it then but
We were in fact
Playing with people's lives
:(

in the movie's story, ray kroc, the man who is in charge of franchising mcdonalds restaurants, is finding himself in a situation where he is doing gangbusters at creating the stores, but is going broke on his contract.
he gets help from another fast food executive who examines his books.one aspect of the business jumps out.
the stores need land to operate on, and that money is going to the land-owners who lease the land to the stores.

so, today i went to a different church than the jw's for the first time in over three years.. it is a protestant african church.
my first thoughts: for people who are 'trapped in babylon the great (according to watchtower) these people really seem genuingly happy and sincere in their adoration for god.
what a freedom compared to the witnesses!

Comfort and communion
are two things for which religion was invented
You might think of a mother with her child when that child is frightened
Sadly has largely been replaced as a way to control people
Fear Obligation and Guilt are the order of the day with most Abrahamic
religions
Sadly
