“Listen and obey!” That is the mantra programmed into the minds of over 8 million Jehovah’s Witnesses, tied to an organization they believe is led by God. But it is not God who is pulling the strings. The extreme governance of the Watchtower permeates every aspect of life. Intruding between patient and doctor. Barring friendship with “outsiders.” Demanding shunning of family members. Encroaching on the role of secular authorities. Even poking its nose between the sheets of the marital bed. This book cuts the strings. Though “gentle” compared to a physical intervention, the guide takes no prisoners in subjecting Watchtower rationalizations to genuine independent thought. Featuring several original lines of argument that have not been previously published. Watch as the legalisms of the Watchtower go up in flames and are blown clear away. With a dash of humor, and a plethora of easily-verified references, this is one hundred pages that can change -- and possibly save -- your life, or the life of someone you love. This is not an "apostate" book, nor is it a religious work. Rather, it is a logical, concise guide to relieving the Undue Influence exercised over Jehovah's Witnesses by the Watchtower society. After setting to rest the notion of the "faithful and discreet slave," the book investigates three areas where Watchtower doctrine impacts the lives of Witnesses: Medical Decisions, Shunning, and Child Endangerment. Each chapter consists of three sections: How the doctrine affects the lives of Witnesses; Reasons why the doctrine may not be sound; and Undoing the Undue Influence in your own life. A perfect gift to give yourself or anyone you know who may be involved in this religion.
