FayeDunaway: 'OFS doesn't ACT too zealous, the way he lives, but he sure gives strong comments!'
That's the strange thing about indoctrination. To a kool-aid drinking J-dub, OFS's comment would seem like he's endorsing the party line when in fact it is the exact opposite.
Let's review: It's a cult!

mr. jackson was pressured by angus stewart to answer if the org condoned corporal punishment, to which he openly stated that the org does not condone corporal punishment for j.w.
children.
this "fact" has never been revealed in the org's literature, in fact, this article which was published under geoffrey jackson's supervision, by definition demonstrates the org's approval of corporal punishment for j.w.
Searcher, thanks for sharing that excerpt from the transcript.
The evasiveness and the refusal to give a direct answer is very telling. It's pretty typical of all of the WT representatives throughout the RC hearings.
I'd love to ask any or all of them, "Why is it so hard for you to just give a straight answer? It seems like you're hiding something."

Millie: If a person were to be objective as a believer, the evidence would indicate the Holy Spirit is working against them.
True dat!
What a fantastic comment. The logic of this observation and it's conclusion is compelling. And yet the average JW will not be able to see it because of the powerful indoctrination which they have received, indoctrination and mind-control which prevents any thoughts which are in any way critical of the religion.

so i was fooled by the witnesses.
what can i learn from that?
not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.

TR: I would suggest it implies the woodcutter ( wood chuck) should pay attention to the main task, and complete it to the best of his ability.
The groundhog (Marmota monax), also known as a woodchuck, or whistlepig, is a rodent of the family Sciuridae, belonging to the group of large ground squirrels known as marmots.

Viviane: If a wood chuck could chuck wood, how much wood would that wood chuck chuck?
Obviously Viv, If a wood chuck could chuck, then a wood chuck would chuck a wood chuck chuck of wood!
