The many posts about disfellowshipping prompted to throw in my 2 cents. What is the real truth behind disfellowshipping?My present thinking is this, over the years, JW's have been indoctrinated to avoid 'independent' thinking. Why? Is it because the truth would eventually be known as to what really goes on behind closed doors? With all the news (negative) coming in from different sources about many topics, there is a stench smell in the WTBTS. Is the WTBTS a communist front? I ask this question because when organizations do the thinking for you, it's communism. If you do not follow party rules, your history! No, Herman Zweigart and the hundreds of thousands that have been disfellowshipped are not alone, why?I would appreciate your thoughts.Guest 77
