As a means to keep Jehovah’s Witnesses indoctrinated the Watchtower organization keeps them constantly busy on a treadmill of activity consisting of meetings, preparation for meetings, family worship, kingdom hall cleaning, door to door preaching, assemblies and conventions.

Though they claim to be the faithful and discreet slave appointed by Jesus to help all Christians to arrive at the correct understanding of the Bible, the governing body admits that they are not inspired by God.
