I agree. Being one of Jehovah's Witnesses is indeed a trivial persuit.

Who is going to be interested in this? JWs would hate it. Most ex-JWs couldn't care less.
Nevertheless I'll try a few:
Who stepped down as vice president of WT society because he was not annointed?
Which star system was said to contain Jehovah's dwelling place until 1953?
What was the name of J F Rutherford's wife?
Which president of the WT society was born in Bethlehem?

I believe the Society has issued a card game with "Bible" trivia questions, but that could have been a "brother" that made that game with actual Puketower questions. I played that "game" once, and there was no point whatsoever in it. All it was was another way to quiz the people in their indoctrination levels with targeted questions. No scoring system whatsoever (after all, you wouldn't want any competition). But you don't want to dog it because that would get you flagged as a possible apostate.
Any JW Trivial Pursuit type game would be in the same manner. If they used pro-JW answers exclusively, it would be another indoctrination session disguised as a game, and most people would not want to play it. If you put apostate questions in, the Tower would stop people from playing it (which they would do until they can verify every single answer). Of course, you would have to stick with the latest edition, because if your game went out of date, it would have "bad" information and could later embarrass the Watchtower Society. Another $25 X (who knows what "kingdom premium") wasted.
