I wonder - if this happened with the Christian Scientists, would
they argue that the employee's injuries were due to a lack of faith?

Absolutely. Injury, illness, even death are essentially not right thinking.

So I guess there goes the libertarian myth that charity will support
all of the nation's needy so nobody else has to worry their little
heads about them. Apparently they won't even support their own people
who become completely incompacitated for more than a few years - and
then they dump them off at the bus stop with enough money for a couple
of years and hope they die before it runs out.

I've seen what fear the "elders" can induce when they enter a home and tell
people they will be shunned if they don't follow the rules.
No one will talk to you anymore and that extends to the immediate family,
siblings, parents, and children as well as people you might have to work
with every day.

JW is a dead religion isn't it? Since their 1914 prophecy didn't come true?

Christianity's been dead for almost 2,000 years and the putrid
superstition's corpse is still gamboling about.
