This WT book allows one raised as a JW to do a critical review of the religion and elders can't go against it.

    The booklet says "Is it reasonable to say whether something is right or wrong before you have looked into it, or before you have even thought about it? "

    The hypocrisy in this is HUGE, they expect people of other faiths to "look in to it" and "to think about it", and yet the clear, fear-inspiring commands from the GB via the WT mag-rag, see Dec 2013 issue, are that a JW is forbidden on pain of expulsion to do any such thing.

    Nice find.

    Booklet was copyrighted in 1982. I was baptized in 81. I don't remember this booklet.

    ... just thinking outloud.

    Do Catholics "look into it" to discover the "truth" about their religious upbringing?

    Sure! They have questions. So, they go to the preist and he answers them. Fixed!

    Now they can stay Catholic.

    What are you suggesting brother, that Catholics should listen to an outsider talk about their religion? Oh dear! That would be apostacy. They can't do that, now can they? We wouldn't be advocating a double standard, would we?

    No, Catholics should liten to their religious hierarchy. We will lsiten to ours. That's how we "look into it".
