  This [GB] is a group of individuals that have come from all over the world and whom we believe are directed by God to help us understand what is contained in scripture, just as other religions would have their religious leaders, those to whom they look so do JW, but the fact that we believe that there is a GB, a F&DS class that we call it who’s helping us understand the Bible no more makes us a sect than it would make catholics a sect because they believe that the pope and the college of cardinals have the ultimate truth for catholics - Philip Brumley, JW General Counsel

  Isn't it strange JW need to refer to Babylon the Great (and not to Holy Scriptures) to defend and legitimatise the GB arrangement?

  That is what makes catholics a sect, having a pope, cardinals and other layers of officials exclusive from others.
  
  So the WT is "no more" a sect than the catholics, according to this clown. I wonder what is the velocity that a brick must have impacting a head to cause sufficient damage for one to engage in Watchtowerthink.
