    Love it. You hit all the main points. I've been thinking of emailing something along this format to my family and friends that don't know I'm inactive. Great job.

    Very well written MrFreeze.

    I guess many understand your ambivalence about actually sending it.

    As some have observed simple questions can sometimes accomplish more than detailed statements.

    One of my favourites:

    In the light of scripture, why is the "good news" according to Paul, Moses, Isaiah and Psalms absent from the hearts and lips of "publishers of the good news"?

    Greetings

    Yeah I think if I was going to tell them to stick it, I would like to send a copy of your letter. Well written. Honestly unless you were wanting to go out with guns blazing or to make a statement then it would be in your best interests not to send it.

    Bumping because I was just thinking about this letter and no I never did send it.

    Thanks for the bump!  Really nicely written,  I might undertake my own to give my wife. I'm easily tongue tied,  a letter would be far superior..

    Nicely done. I really hope you arrive at the point where you decide to send it. Might make the reader(s) do some thinking of his own.


    Do it. DO IT!!   :)

    It's excellent writing, but I doubt that an elder would borther reading all of it. He would probably regard it as apostate and throw it away.


    But it's good to have it online at this boar to be read by a lot of people.
