This was the theme of a talk at this week's 2nd weekly meeting with the CO.
If you are a progressive thinker, so went the reasoning, you will accept all of the adjustments coming from the 'faithful and discreet slave'.
This so hurt my head when wife told me about it; really?
I AM a progressive thinker, that is why I no longer go to meetings.
Did the rank and file really just nod their heads when they heard this?
Do they think that being a progressive thinker means blindly and I mean blindly, no questions asked, accepting all that the GB has changed and will change in the near future?
What they mean is are you an unthinking follower, will you unquestiongly follow what they say?
Is it any wonder there is so much mental illness in the WT?
But this phrase will no doubt catch on, just one more label to paste or not paste onto people, rather than reading all that you can from all sources, and coming to your own conclusions; no, not that, just:
"Are you a progressive thinker?"
ARRRGH.
