  Holly,

  Your reasoning on the Trinity sounds very good. I belive you have sound reasons for not beliving in the Trinity. Now continue to reason the same way with EVERY doctrine that the society presents to you. Maybe start with proving to yourself that the 607 BCE date is correct. Maybe prove to yourself that birthdays are wrong, and that you will die a horrible death just for celebrating them. Fully explain to yourself why it is very wrong to celebrate christmas. Be sure to include everything. Be sure to note all the proper scriptures that support the whole disfellowshiping process, so that when the time comes, and your family is divided, you know exactly why, and support it 100%.

  Dont read this sarcasticaly, I mean NO disrespect. I am just trying to help.

  Isn't it strange that the Watchtower can change a doctrine but someone who reminds them about it is an Apostate?

  The following was sent to me just now in a forwarded email. So much to pick apart. I did not doctor this up in any way. I just thought it interesting, people still think this way....

  Isn't It Strange?
  
  Isn't it strange how a 20 dollar bill
  seems like such a large amount when
  you donate it to the Kingdom Hall but
  such a small amount when you go shopping?
  
  Isn't it strange how 2 hours seem so long when you're at the Kindom Hall,

  and how short they seem when you're
  watching a good movie?
  
  Isn't it strange that you can't
  find a word to say when you're praying,
  but you have no trouble thinking
  what to talk about with a friend?
  
  Isn't it strange how difficult
  and boring it is to read one chapter of the Bible, but how easy it is to read 100 pages of a
  popular novel?
  
  Isn't it strange how everyone wants front-row-tickets to concerts or games, but they do whatever is possible to sit at the
  last row in the Kindom Hall?
  
  Isn't it strange how we spend 2hrs or less
  on field service, but 4 and more hours visiting friends?
  
  Isn't it strange how we need to share lovely and upbuilding experiences with brothers, but would go ahead gossiping and slandering others?
  
  Isnt it strange how people devote much
  time to secular education, but think little of ways to expand their ministry?
  
  Isn't it strange how we need to know about an event for Kingdom Hall 2-3 weeks before the day so we can include it in our agenda, but we can adjust it for other events in
  the last minute?
  
  Isn't it strange how difficult it is to learn a
  fact about God to share it with others, but how easy it is to learn, understand, extend and repeat gossip?
  
  Isn't it strange how people believe everything that magazines and newspapers say, but question the words in the Bible?
  
  Isn't it strange how everyone wants a place in
  God's Kindom, but they do little or say nothing to get there?
  
  Isn't it strange how we send jokes in e-mails and they are forwarded right away, but when we are going to send messages
  about God, we think about it twice before we share it with others?
  
  IT'S STRANGE ISN'T IT?

  By the way, I don't think it strange at all....

  I live in Indiana, and I rent a building for my business. Our Lease indicates that there will be a yearly increase, the pecentage is based on the cost of living index. Maybe you could ask for a lease from your landlord. Surely you signed one when you first rented. Seems like he/she has the upper hand, you may have to pay on his terms.

  rebel8, No, I can back up your story too...I dont think things have changed either. I dont know why they would say that thats not true! While I never personally heard of anyone being talked to in the back room, I have heard the gossip and slander when someone buys a two door car.

  Thats funny Blondie.

  Around my neck of the woods, if you bought a two door car, as your only car, you were in effect saying to everyone, I never plan to pioneer, ever.
