That would take a lot of control and control can only work if there is a lot of fear. And all someone needs to do is talk to a person that comes out of a control relationship and they would never say it is healthy - now would they?

Is it "Healthy" for every JW to think alike like they do....
by JH ini like variety and different opinions and i don't see that in the jw's...... what can this lead to?.

Field Service Antics ...
by writetoknow indo you remember all the munipulation and antics witnesses use to get out of actually going to the door and talking to people about the bible?.
i only bring this up because in another thread i posted someone made the assertion that if witnesses voted as a group they would change the election.
it like saying the witnesses go to every door in the world with the good news and their the only group doing the work!.

So you mean it not about saving lives? Wow does that mean if you got your hours in for the month and someone wants to know about Jehovah they would have to wait until the next month time starts?

character development in a perfect world- how??
by chickpea ini used to say this thing to my kids..... .
if adam had never sinned, and humanity had never been in a "fallen state", the concepts of valour and honour and heroism would not exist.....because in a perfect world there is no need for those qualities.
in the perfect world called paradise, that long promised land, there would be no challenges to develop those characteristics that even the present day jws lay claim to in their stories and tales of resistance and struggle again the "world".

Rutherford would have agreed with you he hated character development rule of law was his answer for rude and behavoir that the reason JW's can disfellowship someone that's been a servant for years with no feeling... the hell with character development!

The elders are the worst! They have to put in an appearance to maintain their position they always seem to find away to shepard someone to keep from going to the door. I remember most the elders kept people to a time limit at the door so they could hurry back to the car.
Or my favorite the long meeting before service (at someone home) to cut time away from the door to door work. And of course the list of return visit that are never at home.

I remember how many antics witnesses use to get out of knocking on doors... how much time they can wasted at the donut shop, driving all over the place to make return visit instead of knocking on doors.
Going to laundry mates dropping of mags...
So what excuses did you use to get out of the dreaded door to door work?

IF JW'S COULD VOTE...
by writetoknow inwould they vote as a group for republicans, democrats, or independant?
and who would the society encourage them to vote for?

Thank you for posting the second artical regarding voting. The first artical gives the impression that JW's are reasonable and open to letting their members vote nothing could be further from the truth.
Anyone associated and member of the org knows what would happen if they were caught voting! Witnesses always present articals to look reasonable as if giving a choice to it's members and to protect themselves from lawsuits, but everyone in good standing knows the real policy and what will happen if they break them.
For the public and for the group!

Well don't you find it interest their such a mix bag of views none of the parties really support their views. So conservative when it comes to moral issues and yet so liberal when it comes to taking away personal choice.
For a one world government with no choice and against national patriotism. Against individual rights yet fighting for religious rights.
I think it would be impossible for them to support any party because they would lose control over the masses thinking.
I love the justification "if" the witness were to come togather for war they would have the greatest fighting forces on earth. Now it's "if" they could vote they would change the elections. Well, if the door to door work is how they reach everyone on earth with their "life and death" messages - then world in trouble!
It's like we are the happiest people on earth slogan. Now that's super brainwashing to believe such a fantasy! Let alone their self-brainwashing regarding the door to door work. Does anyone remember the effort it took to drag the elders away from the donut shop on field service morning or the justification not to go to the door?

When you think about it, it really is a dichotomy! Conservative-socialist-totaltarian; against war and indiviual rights, one world government, against freedom of belief,, no interfaith and if you didn't vote their way would you be disfellowshipped?
