  JWs can't admit to themselves that there are problems within the org. because to do so would mean that they (the JWs) were like every other orginization or church.

  Not the so called spirit directed one.

  As the saying goes: Ignorance is bliss.
  A truer statement has never been said.

  As long as they remain ignorant of the facts, they can go thru life thinking
  that they are indeed special in Gods eyes.

  Isn't it much easier to have someone tell you that to gain Gods favor you must do this and that?

  Otherwise they may have to take responsibility for their own behaviour.

  As long as the average JW is told that all the problems within the org. are lies
  from apostates, they won't have to make decisions as far as whether or not the WTS is really being backed by God.

  As long as the average JW parent just goes along with what the WTS tells them,
  they won't have to wonder if what they are doing is really the right thing for their children.

  We can use use the experience of the German soldiers at the end of WWII.

  What was it that they said when they were questioned on why they went along murdering thousands?

  They said: It was their superiors fault.
  They were just following orders.

  Ignorance is bliss.

  Isn't it?
