  if a brother is starting to look at material on the internet and starts to have serious doubts about the jw organisation and questions the integrity of the governing body.

  what steps would be taken to by the congregation to readjust his thinking.

  and also if the congregation is not aware of this but he has confided in an individual how would that individual try to help such a brother?.

  @stuckin... interesting point about motives. Maybe he is looking for a way out to justify himself. hence being not accountable to anyone. That could be the real issue behind it.

  @Giordano Thanks for the advice, Ive had a few days thinking about this prior to my post and I was thinking along the same lines as you. My advice to him would be to keep his thoughts to himself and not to express them inside the congregation, I feel it would do more harm than good. Like you say there would be no room for a debate. And better to drift out than make a rod for your own back.

  @freemind... Excellent point about elder types, I think he might be in trouble if he goes to them. He has confided in me im not a baptised brother but I used to study about 10 years back. he is fine talking to me about it.
