When there are SO many lives to save and the preaching work is SO urgent, why do apologists waste time on Apostates?

You get to count double-time-and-a-half preaching to apostates.

It must be life saving work.

Have you ever wondered why the WTS condemns "apostates" but does not name individuals, organizations, publications, or doctrines of those "apostates"? The WTS does not want the rank and file to be curious and get sucked in. The WTS compares jws reading apostate things as the same as reading or looking at pornography. And we know what a problem there is in the WTS with their members reading/viewing pornography. So maybe they think JWN and other places are porn sites and they are getting their jollies by coming here and other sites.
I think many apologists who come here have no status in their own congregation and are viewed as odd and on the edge. Perhaps men who'll never be made a MS or elder, one's who disobey the WTS themselves as they sit on judgment on others they think are disloyal.
Just an idea, Blondie

I suspect Watchtower apostates are like Watchtower Satan, a nebulous manufactured boogeyman that serves as a catch all for anything that is threatening to the Watchtower.
