  The real dividing line isn’t between apostates and apologists it’s between...

  excellent observation from zizek about communist regimes: they didn’t care if people accepted the ideology or took it seriously, so long as people acted as if the ideology was true, that was the important thing.

  in fact the regimes were deeply suspicious people who took the ideology too seriously.

  people who took the ideology seriously were dangerous because they were prone to noticing the inconsistencies and flaws in the system.

  If the GB know that the religion can’t undergo scrutiny and survive, that means they must have a sense of the wrongness of the religion.

  That means they don’t take it seriously on the apologist end of the spectrum. They aren’t true believers. If they were, then they would never suspect that there were any flaws at all and therefore would never think to warn anyone away from deep study.

  Ray Franz took it seriously...

  The current GB are just 100% liars and hypocrites. They are worse than believing apologists and apostates.

  Just Lett ( see what I did there..) sink in...

  Jesus didn’t say, “A good tree produces at least 75% fine fruit to offset the bad fruit. By the fact that they have a higher percentage of good fruit you will recognize them.”

  Yet somehow that’s what JWs believe.. 🤔

  I would imagine that the GB hate it when a woman is taller than them, so it’s surprising that heels aren’t banned already.

  If it’s public then it’s fair game.

  Nicholas King is an excellent, living example of not only the hypocrisy, but of the rebranding of the WT.

  Haven’t heard of this, but I hope it’s a trend.

  Imagine being a Dub, missing work to pay your own way to the Con-vention, and then paying even more to stay in a Hotel. And THEN.... you’re asked to cough up more donations...

  They have missed decades of opportunities to cooperate. There’s no reason not to, UNLESS....you’ve got something to hide...like a GB Pedophile..

  I wouldn’t be shocked to learn that only those who have had “Slumber/Pillow-Gate Party's” are in the running for GB.
