Well, only a person such as he could get anywhere near the top of the WTBT$.
The rest of us are probably too sincere.
in he's nephews book i could not believe some of the things he mentions.
when his father died fred franz told his mother he could not go to the funeral because he was just too busy at bethel.
she spoke to rutherford who ordered him to go.

my dad recently found out i wasn't coming to meetings and going out in field service.
he found an excuse to get me alone in his car and just lit into me about it.
he said that if i'm not going out in service that i'm not one of jehovah's witnesses and the brothers won't be able to trust me when the time comes to go undercover due to being attacked by the authorities.
They look after none but themselves. Their god is Mammon.

I think that if they can convince you that the world is against you then you will cling to them and their false hope with renewed strength.
They want you to believe that theirs is the only hope.
I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

In truth the JW's are of no concern whatsoever to the governments. The WT$ has an inflated opinion of it's own importance.
Other than the fact that it's a mind controling cult, it's hardly worth a mention in the eyes of the governments.

Oh yes. The PO in my old hall in the UK was a sneaky little serpent. He was a tax inspector by day but applied his tactics inside the congregation. Just to think of him makes my skin crawl.
Still trying to wash the dirt off my hands even now!
is there a possibility that the watchtower will be split into two opposing camps at sometime in the foreseeable future?
judging from the past, do we envisage such a scenario happening before our eyes?.
scott77.
Yes, perhaps that's it. Maybe weare the other camp. Lets face it, most splinter groups fizzle out and die but I can't imagine a day when this site is empty.
And it's better than starting your own cult.
At least we can maintain our own integrity and not let someone else manage it.

why do we preach and teach the good news?
is it primarily to help honesthearted people onto the road to life?
Yes, exactly. The WT mags make it all look so appealing. As you say, and as others on this site have said, it IS just a publishing business dressed up in a 'spiritual' wrapping paper.
It's humbling to realise you've been hoodwinked!

Yes thetrueone, sadly I must accept that the above is the reality of it all. When I was a kid it seemed like a wonderful dream but in the end I had to let go of it and now, however painful, I try always to cling to reality. Which at times is uncomfortable but the only hope we have.
Heart warming!
