Hi Scully,
How is it that a religion that claims to pride itself on "teaching people The Truth™" would go ahead and baptize people who do not understand what it is exactly that they are getting into? How is it that a religion that prides itself on providing Accurate Knowledge™ to people would permit anyone to get baptized who could not explain the basic tenets of their faith?
The one conducting the study is responsible for making sure their student understands what is involved. In addition the person being studied with is encouraged and even required to attend the meetings, go in field service and do what they can to advance their understanding of the Bible and their responsibilities as Jehovah's Witnesses.Some make a great effort to learn everything they can, others may not. Either way, how can the "religion" be held at fault? Insight Volumes, Watchtower Volumes, Reasoning book, Blood and Trinity brochures etc. are made available to those who want them. If they don't read they cannot be made to read.Now, if the study conductor is negligent that is another matter but the negligence, imo, cannot be blamed on the "religion" itself. IW
