How are we not free?
The answers you can give are are not freedoms, but slavery.
If you say we are not free to celebrate the holidays.
Hooray, I don't want to celebrate them.
the argument witnesses make is that they are not encumbered by the world and its so-called "freedom".
they feel they are "free" from all the typical problems of this "worldly system of things"........if you could reason with a witness as to whether or not they are truly "free'', what would you say to help them see the light?

i did.. there wasn't any aspect of jwism that i actually really enjoyed apart from the "apres ski" when the meeting had ended.. meetings bored me silly.. i couldn't abide door to door work.. i never studied voluntarily, just a 5 minute skim the through the watchtower before the meeting started.. worst experience ever was door-knocking on christmas morning.

as for the restrictions as to what you could and couldn't do....ye gods!.

I enjoy being a Witness.
Meetings are boring, but better than nothing and needs to be improved.
Field service can be improved.
The restrictions are not a problems as those are things we should not be doing anyway.
I would enjoy it better if all the worldly people were God's people.

Why do you ALWAYS have to go to the "Do your elders know you are posting here?"
MY ELDERS?????? Elder is anyone older than myself.
I don't posess any elders so the answer is no.
"Do My Congregation's overseers know I'm posting here" would be the proper question, [edit]
