How would JWs run a country if they had one?

Spectrum

Can anybody imagine what it would be like to live in a country run by JWs?
What would they call it?
What laws would they have?

I think preaching would be a part of their national service.
Smoking would be banned which would be a good thing.

Any other ideas?

Good question.

What would they call it?

I'd call it Boring. Maybe fancy it up a bit like this: Bo-Ring.

If you remember how the Tellaban ran Afghanistan, I'm fairly sure that's how the Tower would run a country.

Just come to forums of this nature and read all the wonderful experiences that people have already lived in that type of world!

The Jw's have shifted the meaning of christianity from a faith based acceptance of Christ to a Judaic follow the Law regime.

They wouldn't be as bad as the Taliban but they might have Russian style gulags for the no hopers and Chinese re-education camps for those that have a glimmer of hope of returning to the fold.

In the same totalitarian way they run their business!!!

Bow down to the 'tower regime'.

It would be similar to the middle east. There was a WT once where they said the only reason they dont stone apostates to death is because it breaks the current laws. I wonder what would happen though because they wont have anyone getting higher education? Society would stagnate.

It would be like any other totalitarian regime. Stifling and poorly run. See heading, "North Korea."
