When I read that article in the summer (still a Witness then), it left me so confused! Can we or can't we? How much? What part? Why? It didn't really answer any questions, and the congregation had a hard time during that study. The subject came up at a get-together, and everyone else seemed to be just as confused as I was. It is so true though that they make it seem like you are the one making the decision, because they are so subtle with their recommendations/rules. This article made me feel like they were making it look like they were tweaking the rules a little, to allow some flexibility, but if other JW's thought is was as vague as I did, most would likely just stick to the old rules which were clear-cut just to avoid discipline or "stumbling" someone else.
