For the multiple choice questions it might be a good idea to start with some examples from other religions like mormons that a JW can decide freely on. Then go on with the JW examples and see what the mind does with this dissonance.

Thought Control (A simple test for JW's)
by TD inin george orwell's novel 'nineteen eighty-four' the capitulation of the principal protagonist is portrayed in his willingness to assent to the proposition that two and two make five.
once he had denied objective reality, his mental conquest was complete and he was no longer truly the master of his own mind.
nineteen eighty-four is in many ways, a very depressing read.. a charge commonly leveled at jehovah's witnesses is that the type of mind control envisioned by orwell has been and continues to be used on them.

I was on a fairground with some fellow JW. I went to a mission's booth to discuss with them. They told me about Raymond Franz and CoC. I was angry that these guys knew more about my religion and started to search for Raymond Franz's book. I start to read the chapters in a public library, later I bought it via the internet. However, it took me more about 10 years to get out after that.

Jehovah's Witnesses are a sad lot
by garyneal inmy wife is a baptized publisher and i guess everything is going okay for the moment.
i believe that slowly the love bombing is beginning to wane now that she is in.
her mother, of course, is still sending 'encouragement' now that she is dedicating her life to jehovah the organization.. but, of course, the tests are coming forward and my wife is trying to 'endure to the end.'.

3 “Let the day perish on which I came to be born, -

No, currently there are only English songs. For a German, she has a rather British accent.
