Just shovel the coal, don't question the captain

St George of England

On JW Broadcasting there is a video of a Missionary couple who were sent to a Navajo reservation. The sister says the thing she learned most at Bethel was "shovel the coal, don't question the captain". It's worth watching about 60 seconds from the 4 minute mark. It just shows what the GB think of themselves and the "stokers"!

There's some kind of beauty in this robotic life. I think some people are truly happy being just a gear or a screw. In my case I just need to be the captain of my own life.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard: The crew is accustomed to following my orders.
Lily Sloane: They're probably used to your orders making SENSE!

Some people need to be mindless cogs. Someone else makes all the decisions and accepts all the responsibility for those decisions. The cog is free from responsibility in their own lives.

Why do you think believers get so offended when you tell them to think for themselves? You are threatening their only perceived means of survival: following the minds of others.

Many mental and emotional followers cannot even comprehend mental and emotional freedom. It is a foreign language they have never bothered to learn.
