  How do you interact on the board?

  by Fe2O3Girl in

  how do you use the board?

  do you bother reading people's posts when you start a topic, and acknowledge their response?.

  do you read all the posts on a thread when you post to see if someone has added more details, or already posted what you would have said?

  for the past week or so the above phrase has been bouncing around inside my head.. i think it is from a talk to a graduating class at gilead, but i cannot for the life of me nail down the source.. does this ring a bell for anyone?

  do you recall when it was said, and by whom?

  can you point to a source?.

  Do you LONG to be disfellowshipped?

  question to all the inactives.

  we all know why we try to do the 'slow fade' - family & friends - but be honest, don't you sometimes just wish that those bloody elders would get on with it and df you?

  aren't you sick of the pretense that isn't really a pretense.

  The "Tree" of WHAT?

  by Farkel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the account of adam and eve as a literal event is so full of logical contradictions that it is mind-boggling.

  it only takes a minimum of scrutiny to discover that fact, too.. there is something god did not want adam and eve to know.

  he didnt want them to know the difference between good and evil.

  DECEPTIVE JW EDLERS #1

  by Amazing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  deceptive jw elders #1 .

  on h20 i posted a justice series with 12 judicial case experiences for the purpose of showing how decisions are made, and to highlight the poor training, lack of education, and often the incompetence shown by watch tower appointed elders.

  even those of us with a measure of secular education were often untrained in essentials of dealing with peoples personal and emotional problems.
