An apostle having a misunderstanding/question is not on par with publishing millions of pieces of literature, filled with lies.
Why can't JWs understand this?
i have been virtually non-stop studying everything i can get my hands on with regards the wtbts, and "apostate" literature and information.
in all honesty, 80% at least is non-sense and over critical.
however, i do find about 20% (if i have to create a percentage reference) is appropriate in its line of reasoning and questioning.

meg,
You make some good points.
A person can make it as easy or as complicated as they'd like.
Me, I left the baby killers. It's that simple.
If you belong to any group that tells you to kill your child or carry a Suicide Card, get worried. Really worried.
I've helped two people to leave the baby killers. If I can help more, that would be great.

Again, the two teams, Us vs. Them mentality.
I'm arguing in favor of Religious Freedom, ala The First Amendment.
If freedom of speech and freedom of religion are equal to "The Dark Side" in your book, I'm unable to understand your point of view.

I'm an Apostate, insisting that WT is a destructive cult. If that's equal to selling crazy, I'm guilty as charged.

I sold "crazy" for 23 years, as a JW. I'm done with crazy.

The JW cult believes in a list of hundred (if not thousands) of DO's and DON'Ts. They have replaced the Mosaic Law with Watchtower Law. They bind up the consciences of their people, just like the Pharisees did in Jesus' day.

from a JW perspective, that is attacking the WT.
Cults view any form of criticism or dissent as an attack. This is very common. Cults promote a distinct, Us vs. Them mentality. Anything outside of the cult is "Them", and is considered the enemy.
In an authoritarian religions, blind devotion is required. Leadership cannot be questioned, no matter how legitmate the dissent may be.

When you're in a cult, everything is black and white. This allows cult members to live their lives without thinking. They even TOLD which matters are up to their conscience. How ironic.

The cult is big on legalism, as were the Pharisees. Has anyone else thought of this, while reading some of these posts?
