From the stage, they read the words to you, they read the question to you, and then you read back the answer. This is no exaggeration, this is pretty much exactly how it is. To get a taste of just how anti-intellectual it is, check out this spot-on animation of what a Sunday with the Witnesses is like. Above all, being a Witness is intensely, oppressively dull. To be a Witness is to give up much of your creativity, your ability to express yourself freely, and the sum of your critical thinking. But if you have been a member of this religion, then this book will resonate from your teeth to your toes. If you are interested in the subject of thought control, or institutional evil, then you may get something out of this. If you have never been part of the Jehovah's Witnesses religion, I am not sure what this book would mean to you.
