If you are as intellectual as you say then you would surely realize that the WTS is a lie, and always has been from the very beginning. Possibly you and your friends only stay with the Org for friendship purposes, and nothing more. Given the COMPLETE history and founding of the IBS and later the WTS how could anyone in there right mind believe the crap they dish they out?
Ask yourself one question - If the witnesses are the true religion, then why do the accept the Bible as the complete word of God when in fact false religion (who the picture as the harlot) was the one that not only compiled it, but decreed which books would be holy and canons - all the while burning hundreds if not thousands of christian works during the same time period?
