"why waste time witnessing to those who already know the truth, the bergite lies, when so many haven't heard it even once..."
It is like the famous elephant, all those views are right. I don't think the vast majority of disciples stay in TF knowing they are in the wrong for the most part. Doubts are pushed aside, as are doubters, and we are even worse in their eyes, we are pathetic losers and backsliders. Little they know.
So why would they have to spend time with us when we already know what they are all about. We may not know the particulars of the situation and new whims of the queen of heaven but they cannot be waisting time with us. There is nothing they can gain from associating with hardened unbelievers. I find hard to believe they will be sincere in dealing with people like us who are worse than infidels. They won't do it not because we know too much about them but because there is nothing in it for them. They can't see that the real infidels are they who are so ready not to provide for their own.
