"There are too many 'religious' people who become religious precisely to avoid having to think," writes the dean of a theological seminary in the United States. "They simply want to accept everything 'on faith,'" he adds.

Come on people. This is a great quote.
No one sees the irony?
I love it !!

Oh thats too funny!
The public side of the watchtower org wants you to think and question other religions
The private side of the watchtower says, don't question or think about anything we tell you.
5thgen - good find Yep, WT is all about not thinking, not questioning, and "having faith".
These quotes go to show how suckered we were while in. The doublespeak is so obvious now that we're out.
Great quote! Of course that has no bearing on our faith toward the governing body self-professing to be God's channel on earth!
We can think within the defined parameters of the GB but NO independent thinking allowed!
Ooo! Find more!! Find more quotes!!!
Thanks for posting this one!

I view it as a misdirection strategy. By "exposing" and accusing others, the implication is that they couldn't be guilty of the same thing.
Remember the Awake! article on propaganda a few years ago?
Good point, PeaceDog...
And there's the very recent article [July 2009] in the "Awake!" magazine, titled "Is it Wrong to Change Your Religion???"
THAT was a DOOZY!!!

Yes, 5th, I see the irony.
And your picture accurately represents the appropriate look to accompany their statements!
