    Yeah I keep hoping that is the case my soon to be sister in law asked them why they weren't at the jehober dome this weekend and they laughed like normal people didn't even correct her much less get offended... Maybe there is hope?!

    MKR> I feel so long as there is life there is hope. And I hope that your family comes to see for themselves that everything you've told them will awaken their eyes to the reality of the so-called "truth".

    I can't understand why everyone here is so possitive of something resulting to the good and Eduardo is the only negative one here. I think he should try and be positive for you. IMHO.

    I pray that your folks are questioning the Org. and are beginning to see the falsehoods. Here hoping for you friend.

    love Orangefatcat.

    PS. have you shown your parents the UN assocaiton? And the LIes? If you need some links for that I have some good ones. Just let me know. Anything to help a friend out.

    That's an interesting spin on my comment.

    I consider what the Elder (brother) said to his parents as a very positive and loving thing. In other words, he didn't pressure them or give them the usual Watchtower rhetoric about getting their butts to the Assembly but instead showed consideration towards them.

    What is fascinating is how my saying that is a GOOD and positive thing can be construed by you as a "negative one".

    Apparently, since such action of the Elder and such commenting as I did does nothing to belittle the Watchtower/Society/JWs it is to be considered a "negative thing."

    Only in the mixed-up-crazy view of JW-haters I guess, I think most (true) CHRISTIANS would see what the Elder did as a KINDNESS towards his parents and similarly, what I said about it to be POSITIVE.

    Edwardo,

    It doesn't seem to me that the Elder(brother) was doing the kind thing in this instance. If you read the quote:

    feeling bad not violently ill or anything just sorta blah...

    They were not sick...

    I don't think he's made it to this site yet! (or maybe he has HI BRO!) I never ever discuss religion with him he's the type that would shun you in a heartbeat (too worried about his image) I think he's started to have more business dealings with the "upper management" through his business and seeing that they aren't what they claim to be at the hall and in social situations... I think he knew it before he's in charge of lots of quickbuild and commitee stuff but it just starts hammering you when you start dealing with them as "businessmen" oh well I hope he's coming around!
