The JWs make up for .8 % of the world's population of 7 billion, they have still lots to pick out from
My math is 0.117 %
i don't really engage in doctrinal discussions about jw's anymore.
they seem to say some pretty crazy stuff.
but i have read some threads discussing doctrinal changes and how watchtower is really out of ideas and money at the same time.

international version 1 cor 5:11. but now i am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler.
do not even eat with such people.. if shunning is wrong.
.how does one explain this scripture?.
WT shunning is the exact opposite of Corinthians.
Dude was sleeping with his step-mom, so was banned from meetings.
When he ceased boinking his step-mom, he was to be IMMEDIATELY welcomed back.
WT REQUIRES meeting attendance.
WT acts like the Prodigal's resentful brother, bullying those who return, even though no longer "sinning."

my initial pangs of unease and doubt led me to research some things.

It should be noted that the "weapon" of RC excommunication was a "nothing-burger" (Kevin O'Leary speak).
An excommunicated RC was simply deprived of the sacraments. He was not shunned, nor even expelled from the church.
sorry the site was offline for a short while - i kicked off a re-index of the site to pick up the http -> https changeover and, well, i didn't put any rate limits in place so google went full bore at it.
having the site hosted in google's data centre probably helps it go faster than normal.. in other news, i now know the site can scale to handle an insane number of requests if it ever needs to (as long as i put some more coins in the meter)..
I did a DoS attack against myself !

An elder friend of mine that admitted to struggling with the new 'understanding' told me that he felt better after Splanes video.
