stillMS, here is an image of a fake Rolex next to a genuine Rolex. If you can tell the difference from just a photo than you are one expert on high grade watches! I have been collecting wristwatches for over 30 years and YOU MUST HAVE A WRISTWATCH IN YOUR HAND in order to determine its authenticity. I don't believe fulano was trying to excuse anyone on the Governing Body. He probably was just trying to bring some common sense to a nonsensical discussion.

It baffles me why they would even say this
by Tameria2001 inback in 2001, i left the jws rather abruptly.
i had discovered things about the watchtower that really made me quite angry, angry because i had been lied to, and it took me just to darn long to figure it out.
before i had left, my husband and i wrote 3 letters, one to the elders at our congregation, and two to our parents.

"Sunk Cost." They have so much 'invested' in the religion that they feel they cannot leave. Like compulsive gamblers they 'stay in the game' because at any moment they feel the 'big score' (Armageddon and the new system) will finally come their way.

"Psychiatrist is an Admission of Defeat"
by new boy in“the christian witnesses of jehovah are the best oriented, happiest and most contended group of people on the face of the earth.
so why on earth would any good follower need the help of a mental health professional?” the society tells about the evils of seeking help from outside their organization.
"as a rule, for a christian to go to a worldly psychiatrist is an admission of defeat.

What Witness really needs the help of a psychiatrist?
These 4 items should carry them through right up to Armageddon!
(Disclaimer: I wanted to go to medical school and become a psychiatrist but my fanatical, god deluded mother would not hear of it. Instead I became a Bethelite and went crazy there.)

'Old Sister Midge,
Went to the 'fridge,
To get herself something to eat.
But when she came there,
The 'fridge was bare,
Because Watchtower her funds did deplete!'

"The Governing Body loves you"- Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses
"Love means not ever having to say you're sorry." - Love Story by Erich Segal
Maybe the Governing Body is stuck in a bizarro alternative universe in which they think that if they say they love you that this negates their responsibility to ever apologize for their misdeeds?
