in the 60 and 70’s, that was pretty much tolerated until the great purge in 1979 and 1980. as a matter of fact, it wasn’t unusual for witnesses to get together and discuss personal questions and viewpoints they might have.

it wasn’t unusual to send letters to the society asking what was considered the right or wrong view.

I was born in, the 1975 thing I eyewitness first handed. Seen people come and go. At 15 years old was baptized, what a mistake! Pioneered for awhile. Found out it was a waste of time. The meets, conventions seem to be same old material. Just got worn out of the bs.

Education: 2. Watchtower: 0.

As usual, you think their people would grow a brain and figure it out.

Some Worldly scientists made the vaccine, but it's all Gee-hober. Amazing how they frown on education but rely and benefit from it and delusionally kiss a made up god/ organization for it as if they produced it.

i remember knowing some jws that expressed their own personal viewpoints regarding what a scripture meant that was at odds with society teachings.

I had questions that Watchtower didn't/ couldn't answer. Was told to wait on Gee-hober. Waited, and waited crickets! Then I found Google.
