Add Scientology to the list of who is copying who...
Lots more Mormons than JW's are somewhat educated. The ignorant JW GB needs someone to give them ideas, as I cannot imagine one of them having an original thought. I've had many Mormon co-workers since I moved out west. Mormons appear much more "normal" than JW's in everyday life. The Mormons I've known are not preachy like JW's. They go on a 2-year mission, than pretty much go on with their lives, except the women, who don't really have a life.
Imitation is the sincerest form of ignorance.
I think the WTS is copying the Mormons who are more successful / have more members despite even nuttier beliefs.
The WTS always had a slight homemade / amateur feel to everything but now they are getting way more corporate and media savvy.
In many ways they are catching up - they used to be a 'new age religion' but then got old and stale. They are trying to become hip and trendy again but even the catholic cutch is looking more progressive and with the times nowadays.
simon - "They are trying to become hip and trendy again..."
Yup.
Someone finally said, "wake up and smell the megachurch subculture!"
