will soon be discussing w/ somebody still in about that.
i want to make sure i am not missing anything good.
so any scriptures, articles whether wt articles or secular about effects of shunning, etc, or your arguments against how wt interprets their scriptures, etc.
The way I look at it Christians are suppose to be followers of Christ. I don't ever recall any examples where Jesus actually shunned anyone; only Paul came up with shunning as far as I can see and we are not suppose to be followers of Paul (man).

The Watchtower used the term "double life" in the past. I remember back in the 80s there would be articles in The Watchtower warning youths to "Guard Against Living A Double Life".

that was a quote from a dyed in the wool jw recently.
it was a complaint.. we all know that with 'new light(tm)' that the watchtower corporation's version of 'religion' has kept changing for a long time.
since i remember.....and i go back a long way too.
Some are so invested that even if the Society started putting idols in the KHalls, they would consider themselves at fault for questioning the GB
Isn't that what they did in Chile by displaying the national flag?

was just out shopping and came across two middle aged female witnesses with their magazine trolley..
i approached them and they were all glee and smiles and ready to hand me a couple of magazines.

What cofty said. If you are willing to be a "witness" you should expect to be subjected to "cross examination".

are you a fan of harper lee's "to kill a mockingbird"?
i read the book as a child and have read it many times since.
miss lee obviously wrote the book to entertain us, and she accomplished that.
I can't wait to read it. I agree with Terry in that it is a more realistic view of the mindset at that time and the fears that people had toward blacks being blending in with the white community. The novel was written in 1957 right at the same time the Little Rock Central High School crisis was going on which was getting a lot of national media coverage at that time and it was a hot subject.
