Here's another point in response to her stating that the JW's have to use anything within their means to get out the message:
If that is the case, why do they not have their own satelitte TV network? Even the Mormons have BYU channel on my DirectTV, so why does Jehovah allow the Mormons to have their own satelite TV channel, and not the JW's? Think of the MILLIONS, maybe even BILLIONS of people you could instantly reach with this "life-saving" message, if only the Governing Body wouldn't be so cheap and invest a few million of their moldy money to do such? How about a free station on Pandora internet radio?
I said this once to an Elder and he was totally awe-struck at the concept! I mean, you could really see the wheels turning as to why he had to knock on doors of empty houses every week, when instead the WTBTS could be in people's homes at the touch of a button if so desired. It was when I had this realization myself that I came to the conclusion that the "Field Ministry" was nothing more than busy-work to keep the rank-and-file too busy on the hamster wheel to slow down and think about the rotten spiritual banquet they were being perpetually served. BUSY-WORK.
Like what's his name says on here, "It's a Cult!" True. True.
