The problem with the W/T Corporation ,well one of the myriad problems, is that it has a one way relationship business oriented set up. All the gains that go into making it a success are brought about by the work put into it by rank and file labourers who are motivated mainly by fear, fear of getting zapped at Armageddon and having to deal with the thoughts of everlasting death if they don't come up to the mark. They are not told that there is every possibility of reaching old age in fact it's odds on favourite that the majority will grow old but the Society do not really want you to think about that fact. As all of us old timers know, you are young one day and before you know it youth evaporates and before you realise its gone for ever. If you spend all your years with the misconception that you will have eternal youth problems are bound to occur and it is difficult enough to plan for old age as it is without the Watchtower Misinformation Society telling you a pack of porkies ( lies)
The one way relationship is the same as with any other bosses of a business who like to chant the mantra " if you don't shape up ,ship out. " but the difference is you generally get paid for shaping up. The Society are actually very bad at religion they are just good at selling castles in the sky they do not even have decent hymns for goodness sake. You do not get ( in my humble opinion) any real peaceful feelings that can lift you up sometimes which you can get from a mainstream religious service. I would say that true love is lacking in Watchtower land and I might also add there is a definite lack of wisdom.
The governing body claim charitable satus but unfortunately it's a one way street and we know where that street leads to . I would just like to add that in my time as a JW I knew an elderly couple who were around in 1914 .They had spent all their life pioneering etc. They worked full time from the days of their youth to old age serving the publishing corporation untill they died in the 1960s . Their home was a very dark upstairs appartment that seemed to hark back to Charles Dickens times. That was one of the many instances that made me question the Society.
