Every congregation and set of elders do things differently, so your guess is as good as mine!

Jehovah's Witnesses: Are They?
by Honesty inare jw's as reasonable as the watchtower society makes them out to be in its literature?.
the reason i ask is because one of my clients was shocked when he found out i had once been a jw.. his response was, "i used to work with several jw's and they were the most unreasonable people i have ever known.
".

Why would God speak in symbols if he really wanted us to understand?
by rebel8 inif i was a deity and wanted people to know "the truth", i would just say it in plain language instead of veiling everything in symbolism, innuendo, and vague hints.
what does that method of communication accomplish?.
if i remember correctly, the borg answer to that is this method of communicating tricks the bad people but the good people can figure it out just fine.

I have had this thought for a long time. A LOVING god would make sure we had all the information necessary for a happy and fulfilling life, and full details of how he would like to be worshipped.
None of those things are clearly apparent in the bible, nor are his plans for the future or what (if anything) happens after death.
So it makes me wonder that if there is a god, is this book anything to do with him? If it isn't then what kind of LOVING father gives his children none of his wisdom and understanding to benefit their lives?
You can go round and round in circles on this subject!! -

My letter to the "Glorious Ones."...
by Justice-One ini thought you guys might get a hoot out of this letter that i just mailed..... dear elders (or should i call you glorious ones?).
you can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can never fool all the people all the time.
and you certainly do not have me fooled anymore.

Blood is Thicker than Water
by Clam in"blood is thicker than water.
" well technically speaking it is of course, but how do you feel about this saying?
it implies that those people you have a biological link with are somehow "extra special".

I don't know if you have children or not. But in my life my children come before anyone and I will always love them unconditionally until the day I die.
In that case blood is thicker than water. But as for all my other blood relatives that are currently shunning me - the jury's out on that one! -
