5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have Dictionary, January 17, 2001
By A Customer
This book is a dictionary of terms used in a unique way by the Watchtower Society (Wt) and thus by Jehovah's Witnesses. It is a must reference for anyone who wants to understand or research the Wt. To understand the Jehovah's Witnesses you must understand their unique use of terms which Reed claims is done for several reasons, including to help the Wt achieve mind control in the Orwellian tradition. Reed also explains how and why a mind control language (called argot in psychology) is necessary. An example of a term defined is the term "theocratic war strategy" meaning "hiding the truth from persons not entitled to it, or deceiving outsiders (done in order) to advance the (Watchtower) organization's interests. Falsehoods presented to 'Gods enemies' are not considered lies, due to the state of war existing between God's forces (the JWs) and Satan's (the rest of the world)." This dictionary is also a must for JW's. To be considered mature, Witnesses must keep up with the changing argot. An example is fully 28 percent of Witnesses and former Witnesses in one survey did not know what theocratic war strategy was (although most correctly defined it). The newer Witnesses were most likely not to know the term. Memorizing this book can enable Witnesses to achieve up to date knowledge of all major terms.
