Re: Nothing New under the Sun
I found the comments after the story to be revealing of the JW mindset. You could pretty easily tell who were the JW posters. Humorless, affectionless, judgmental, closed-minded. That's the real face of this exclusive sect, not those smiling faces in their literature.
There certainly are similarities to the LSM churches. You are either subservient to the (LSM/JW) programme or you're ignored or condemned. Any attempt at real interaction, involving critical thinking, makes them antagonistic. Everyone must submit. Independent thought is not allowed -- Big Brother has spoken.
