  as you are all aware i am new to the board, this is my third topic post.

  since i have come online and expressed some concerns regarding docturnal issues, i have been pm'd by several active jw's on the board pretending to have concerns also but then sending pm's to "trust in the congregation and jevovah", "talk to the elders about your concerns" and "stick close to the congregation".

  i would like to make this known loud and clear -

  i've got some relatively simple questions that i would like answered from the bible, by dozy!

  Why are Witnesses better at being "Mean" than being "Nice"?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if the elders tell the congregation to shun someone, they will do a good job at it.. if the elders tell the congregation to be good to one another and forgive one another, it doesn't always happen.. if someone is in need in the congregation, it doesn't mean that they will be helped.. so, why are the witnesses better at being mean or insensitive, rather than nice and caring and generous?.

  my sister is not a witness.

  she is of another religion, and when someone in the congregation needs help, they go full speed ahead to help.

  1. if satan was not prevented from infiltrating god's heavenly organization an d causing perfect angels to follow his lead,

  what would prevent him from doing the same to an organization of imperfect men claiming to be god's earthly organization?

  (actually wouldn't it be a more effective way of misleading the masses?
