  Athiests

  sorry if i that is the wrong spelling.

  i just want to say that i used to be judgemental of athiests, but as a jw backer everyone on here finds nothing but wrong doing with the orginizations.

  well i am sure i can find wrong doing with other churches and their teachings as well.

  My stepfather made some beautiful furniture. But his fatherly qualities were as distant and intangible as God and Jesus.
  
  Do you ever wonder.... will I be able to afford groceries this week?

  im following along a little from the above topic.

  i remember in a book study reading that there are more people alive on the earth today than have ever lived in the past.......6 billion.

  so is it true that less than 6 billion people have ever lived up to this century?.

  You are correct vitty. In the 80's the org. said that there were as many people living now as have ever lived on earth beforehand. It was 5 billion back then.

  Attention former elders and ms: I have a question.

  i'm currently a ministerial servant and pioneer in my congregation.

  i want to begin my fade soon.

  i'm going to get off the pioneer list first instead of quitting both positions at once, hopefully to ease potential gossip.

  I changed my congregation and did sufficiently little to be re-appointed.
  
  My clinical depression did the rest! They stayed away in droves.

  what are the concequences of being marked?

  what qualifies a person to be marked?

  who determines whom shall be marked?

  The piece from the 1999 QFR that bluesbrother posted; 'The congregation elders take the lead in offering help and counsel if someone is walking disorderly. ', would seem to be an adjustment from my understanding of marking in the '80's.
  
  I recall that it was proper for an individual to mark somebody even though no talk had been given.
  
  Can anyone recall this being the case?
