2014? Another apocaliptic date? They better not miss this time, or they are going to lose a lot of jw... it's crazy they just make this $hit up! And yes,, it's so sad and anti christian their view of disfellowshipped. As my husband said, they would have stonned Mary Madgalene and disfellowshipped Paul.

You missed the point my darling: HATING is actually LOVING.
By being thoroughly nasty shunning spiteful and bullying, we are loving these evil ones, and attracting them back to those who are kicking them in the face.
We dont want them to walk away, we want them to help us to stop hurting them, by stopping making us hate and hurt them.
The Theocratic logic is flawlwess - cannot you SEE it Babes?
If you want to attract wasps, put out vinegar - NOT honey.

Shirley,
*** w52 11/15 p. 703 Questions From Readers ***
{{{Being limited by the laws of the worldly nation in which we live and also by the laws of God through Jesus Christ, we can take action against apostates only to a certain extent(such as name calling, disfellowshipping by a kangaroo court, forbid relatives from communicating with them, and slandering them), that is, consistent with both sets of laws. The law of the land and God’s law through Christ forbid us to kill apostates(severely limiting us from doing what we really really want to do to them), even though they be members of our own flesh-and-blood family relationship.}}}

The entire OT has many themes, one of them is hatred for everybody who is not a worshipper of jehovah. When Joshua and others were busy they killed anybody they could and always said it was because they worshipped idols. Then we move onto the NT, and we have the apostles like Peter who refused to preach and even talk and eat with gentiles.
If you want pure hatred, you cant beat the BIble and worshippers of Jehovah.

I once heard that trying to patch up the world is similar to painting the hand-rails on the Titanic as she started to sink. I think that was at a convention or maybe just a public talk.

I must confess folks I'm a true apostate. I do speak against God, Jehovah
and Jesus. Maybe not preaching from door to door but if anyone ask me,
I will certainly tell them my view on the bible. So that makes me a true
apostate according to the bible. Originally it was the GB,then man made religious
organization and then God himself. So as a unbeliever I guess that makes me
the big A.

I must admit I don't hate Jehovah i just don't believe he exist.
