The Watchtower's Cult of Irresponsibility
by expatbrit inone of the things i've had emphasized to me over the past couple of weeks is how irresponsible the watchtower leadership is.
not only that, but they are clinging to that irresponsibility tenaciously, because they realise that once the secular world (or worse, rank and file jw's) begins to hold them responsible for the things they say and do, they are finished.
they tell people that unless they follow watchtower directions now, they will shortly die horribly.

Should we care about "lurkers"?
by expatbrit inive noticed some discussion on the question of whether we should be concerned about moderating our behaviour because of what lurking jws will think.
should we be concerned about scaring off jws who may be starting to question the wt, or should anything go because if they can't deal with the real world it's not our problem and we should be ourselves?.
the following are some of my thoughts.
