Standard operating proceedure for the JW.ORG cult. It is shocking to most, once they see this tactic for the first time. But once you know it's a method they use intentionally, then it really does not shock anymore.
I tried to read a couple months of WT rags to see if I could do the same to them and partially quote the WT to say something they did not intend. I could not find anything. I think they even write in a way to prevent others from doing this to them.
at our service meeting we saw the video of a jw explaining his beliefs about 1914.. it was.....well, "underwhelming" does not do it justice.
what is below "underwhelming"?
"boringly tepid"?.
Wow!

this statement startled me out of the pleasant mental absence during this week's "service" meeting.. pushing the org.
explanation: "the listener has time to interrupt, if they want--" .
together with an incredible boring "study" of an hand held device, or it's stored content, i will be a totally new crop of orgies at the halls,.
is there any way we can try to start a crowd-fund to help terry get some wheels quicker than he currently can?
with craigslist and a couple of bucks from a few members we can help terry get moving.

Happy riding!
