"Truth, I've discovered, will not be destroyed by questioning or scrutiny. It will always stand unbeatable. Questioning only confirms truth and makes it visibly stronger; it never crumbles it. On the other hand, the man-made distortions of truth--those that we sometimes hold to be so valuable, and use as a criteria for fellowship, and are even willing sometimes to die for--fall apart under such honest questioning. And anything that is destroyed by honest questioning is obviously spurious and deserves to be junked. By crumbling and falling apart, it proves to be vain."

I would wager that most witnesses would agree with this as well, so long as they don't connect it with mother.

I agree JD. Questioning is fine to them, so long as you're only questioning other religions and your questioning leads you to unbreakable love and devotion for God's spirit anointed channel (12 wrinkled old dudes in a Brooklyn Brownstone).
