Hey Butters,
I have a delima...
If I agree with everything that you said.... does that mean I'm a "free-thinker" too?

Sheeple
by Butters inbutters here,.
just wanted to ask a few questions about free thinkers.
how many of you feel you are truly a free thinker, not involved in some sort of group that has capes and drapes, or a "label"?

Question about apostosy
by gordon d inplease correct me if i'm wrong.... .
isn't the wtbts's stance on apostacy defined as a member who denounces the authority of one of god's holy spirit inspired spokesmen?
if so, when paul and barnabas had the argument over taking mark on a mission trip.... which one was apostate?

OK.... so (in the past) if a witness said that the WTS was "full of it" on the subject of organ transplants, had a prohibited procedure and was labeled as apostate, what would that person be considered "as" when the WTS later changed their stance on the issue?

Or... at the debate over circumcision in Jerusalem?

I open my mouth and "bleah" comes out
by Seeking Knowledge ini'm pretty "new" to this religious thing.
i've always had my beliefs and i've been to just about every church there is to go to (except jw) and they all basically preach the same thing in different ways.
fine, i can deal with that.

Hi SK, Just a thought... (probably not an original thought) I think that children are like sponges. They are gonna soak up whatever they are exposed to... that is why so many of us are here, on this forum. Perhaps it would be worthwhile to give your son some equal time in an environment that teaches the real "truth" about Jehovah, Jesus, and the role of mankind. That might be difficult to find but looking for it might be time well spent. All kids are exposed to good and bad, right and wrong, everywhere. With love motivated parenting and a little trial and error (on their part) most of them seem to find their way toward some positive, personal growth.... some even develop a deep relationship with God. The scary thing is when they are denied the opportunity to discover their own perspectives by a group of "adults" that literally demonizes everything that differs with their opinion. This is the epitome of the brainwashing technique that cults use so successfully. I know it's tough but don't give in or give up.... there have been far to many lives and families ruined already. We'll be praying for you, and your son, and your ex. Love, Gordon **** P.S.****** If you want to cure the "bleahs", don't forget to read your bible daily...Arm yourself with the sword of the spirit... Jesus showed (in the wilderness) that nothing shuts up Satan like the proper use of the phrase "It is written"... In my experience, the average Witless is totally disarmed with this approach.
