Don't worry according to todays Watchtower you can get away with smoking also, but only a couple of times if no one finds out. So see they really aren't that hypocrytical you can get away with a couple of murders and a couple of cigaretes.

A very dangerous belief!!
by Gill inwe were unfortunate enough to be invited to spend some time with some of my jw relatives the other day.
my husbands jw relatives totally shun us but, my side of the family occassionally 'stoop' to allow us into their presence once in a while.
(a totally worthless occassion in which no 'real' conversation is permitted!).

that is terrible for ones self esteem also to think you can never do anything wrong, it's impossible to meet those expectations so at very best they will grow up depressed not being able to.

The Watchtower and Conditional Morality
by Stephanus ini was thinking about the conditional nature of "love" in the 'tower, when i realised that "conditionality" is pretty well the nature of the beast.
hence "conditional morality".
for example, the rules on lying: that witholding the truth from undeserving ones is not wrong.. what other examples are there?.

I am particularly fond of they reasoning that basicly anything is fair game as long as it's in the interest of "spiritual warfare". They use that as a get out of jail free card alot.

Grrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!
by lola28 inok, help me out people, what would you do if you knew that someone from your home had stolen money from you?
today i was going to go to the bank till i realized that i was missing 240.00, i know this money was in my purse because i put it there on wed night, i know i did not lose it because i have not touched my wallet in as long.
i also have not been out anywhere so i could not have misplaced the money.
