While you were in the org and you know the Watchtower is a fraud, did you stumble someone on purpose and that person is no longer in the org, is that worth it?
While you were in the org, have you ever stumbled someone?

How would you know; it is so subjective. I remember a sister who was "stumbled" over what anyone did and ran to the elders.

i hated and still do hate the term "stumbled". from a jw standpoint, i always thought that if someone was stumbled over what someone else did they were really not strong spiritually to begin with.
now, i just look at it as someone who gets "stumbled" is just a "crybaby"

I never quite got the concept, why should what I do affect someone else's faith ? O.K if I was an out and out rotter, a real sinner, and the congregation did nothing about it, then a newcomer might question the org.
But with ever vigilant Elders just waiting to sling you out, how could that happen ?
If someone didn't like something I did and thought it was un-christian ,then they should come to me and talk about it, and even if my reaction was not good, why would that "stumble" them ? I ain't J.C after all.
I never bothered myself about it, and I do not think I was the cause of anyone even doubting, let alone leaving. of course, looking back ,if I had been Iwould say I did them a favour !

Not on purpose.
A sister stumbled over my feet while getting to her seat at a D.C.
