Gee, am i getting deja vu or what? Yes, I saw this on the news the other night....totally sick. That guy should be taken out and beaten to a pulp just for being such a jackass. I notice on the news that he used the exact same excuse for splitting up families as what the Witnesses do:
Other members had similar stories. "Nathan used to come to the house and he doesn't anymore. I have to pull his teeth. He refuses to come to dinners. And that's not the Nathan I knew," said Dave Rozon about his son. And what does Peter Rigo have to say about all this? Basically, that it's all God's will. He told W-FIVE, "The gospel separates families. Jesus said very clearly in His word: 'I did not come to bring peace and unity, I came to bring division with a sword. And whoever loves the father or the mother, their husband or wife, brother or sister more than me is not fit to serve in my kingdom.'"
*** w95 10/1 p. 8 Does God Come First in Your Family? ***
"A man’s enemies will be persons of his own household," Jesus said. Yet, despite that sad consequence, Jesus showed who should come first by saying: "He that has greater affection for father or mother than for me is not worthy of me; and he that has greater affection for son or daughter than for me is not worthy of me." (Matthew 10:34-37) We put Jehovah God first by following the teachings of his Son, Jesus Christ, who is "the exact representation of [God’s] very being."
What will you do if you are forced to make a choice between pleasing God or pleasing a family member? Will you rationalize that God does not expect us to study his Word and apply its principles if doing so creates family dissension? But think about it. If you give in and cease your Bible study or association with Jehovah’s Witnesses, how will loved ones ever understand that accurate knowledge of the Bible is a life-and-death matter?

This is the biggest crock of crap, I've ever heard and read!!! My "worldly" family wanted nothing more to do with us, because we were told to have nothing to do with them anymore, after we became witnesses....they didn't want to "understand" accurate knowledge of the bible....
