Bible Hoarders.
by scotoma in
1. jw
2. friends
i was really turned off by the segment of the meeting dealing with the watchtower's bible collection.

i thought i was at the antique road show on pbs.. what was that all about?

it was so bizzarre for these "annointed" ones to get off on collecting these old printed bibles.. you can get excellent scans of just about any historical document.. looked like a personal hobby of sanderson the nararator.. there is something idolatrous and at the very least a sick display of the hoarding instinct in the glee coming from getting their "paws" on these treasures.. what a disappointment to see a religion started by people who wanted to abandon all earthly things and join christ in the air, fawn over these relics carefully preserved as a memorial they can fondle.. are they really in the museum business now?
