    So, it seems that the ONLY basis for the Governing Body / Organization's claim to have divine backing and therefore control and power is based on the scripture at Matthew :

    "who really is the faithful and discreet slave?"....

    If that is correct, and this scripture has been thoroughly de-bunked in many other threads, then the fact is THE EMPORER HAS NO CLOTHES ON!

    They have NO RIGHT to claim divine backing!

    True. They have no right.

    But they have managed to get 8m+ to GIVE them the right. And that makes it difficult because only the individuals can take that right back.

    FACT: The vast majority of J.W.'s are convinced by the Org's indoctrination that "they have nowhere else to go!"

    It's like a football fan discovering that not only is their team rotten to the core, but that the sport itself is thoroughly corrupted!

    Get out of "the organised system", leave it and get a life, and find like-minded, honest people who can speak freely without fear of reprisals!

    Correct on that assumption as well it pays to keep in mind that the WTS. has said that going outside or not being apart of the organization is most likely is going to result in your death at the soon to come Armageddon.

    This plays a major role in instilling fear and coercion to retain and control people .

    The core principle agenda by the leaders of the WTS is to allure people to its publications and to further influence people into becoming a unquestioning subservient representatives of the organization by means of labor and donations.

    The leaders of the WTS. are self empowering and apathetic toward any other outside human endeavors.

    They have a much greater basis for power and control.

    Eight million suckers have handed over willingly their lives, their children and their money to them.

    It seems that some people just like to be shat on. Funny creatures we are as humans.

    hoser - "It seems that some people just like to be shat on."

    Well, when you've endured a lifetime of being told you're irrevocably bad, being shat on is kind of expected.
