Lynne - "Seems to me that's a 'bad association' but of course no consequences ever happen to him."
All JWs are held to the same standards equally.
Some are just held more equally than others.

" we want to share the life saving truths with our neighbors...but associate with them? NO WAY! cant do that cos they are worldly people!"
Once upon a time (in the early 1980's) a Bethelite named George Dixon came to a Special Assembly in CA and gave a talk wherein he gave this illustration: Imagine that you are present when a worshipper of Molech is resurrected. While you are witnessing to him, telling him of all the sacrifices you made to serve Jehovah, he says "oh yes, I made sacrifices too; I offered my only daughter to Molech in the fire". Dixon asked: are you going to turn away from that person because of what has been done?
His point, and the point of his presentation, was that all the people JW's will deal with in the future will be "worldly" and that JW's are not to turn away from them or reject them, but teach them "The Truth". So what's their problem in the here and now?
