Tolstoy - The Kingdom of God is Within You
- I was thinking while reading this that JW's are have a lot in common with Christian anarchism. Perhaps that's why my "conversion" to an anarchist was so smooth. When I was about 16 I started reading anarchist literature and it struck a chord in me that I then thought was compatible with JW theology. Of course, the so-called "neutrality" stance put me off and eventually I left the religion due to its incompatibility with my belief that "you can't be neutral on a moving train" as Howard Zinn (RIP) said. But, I still maintain my belief that no human government can ever steak a claim to justice as imperfect human institutions are ultimately coercive and no human has a right to command another.
