  Was the Verdict of the Candace Conti lawsuit a Win-Win for the WTS?

  by rip van winkle in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  why did the wts not try to settle this lawsuit before going to trial as they had so many times previously?

  was it presumptiousness on the part of the society's lawyers and gb?

  had this been settled it would have hardly caused a whimper.. it got me to thinking that although the verdict of $28 million is unheard of, it may actually further the wts to make their claims that they are the only true religion.. reason being- if the monetary award is overturned then they will say it was jehovahs will.
