I certainly wouldn't want to be a member of any organization which dictates to me what friends I can have or what private functions I can attend.
Really, though, all those rules look like what a cult leader would dictate to his members. You know they're really afraid of people leaving the religion when they feel like they have to control what they read, who their friends are, and force alienation upon anyone who disagrees with the group. It's all a bunch of mind control, and if their religion was worth following they wouldn't have to do any of that crap to keep members.
I'm going to keep these 141 rules in mind the next time the JW's come to my door with a copy of the Watchtower.
Oh that also reminds me of the guy who built a fireplace in our house when I was a kid. He was a JW, and after he completed the work, he stopped by our shop every once in a while for years to drop off a copy of the Watchtower.

Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
