I'm sure it's a BOE thing that's one of the times of the year where BOE'S can get bragging rights IE:
"We had 35 aux pio's in our congregation"

Classic Doublespeak--- "You must do your own thinking; let the WTS tell you how"
by pharmer ineducation teaches you how to think.propagandists tell you what to think.true educators present all sides of an issue and encourage discussion.
propagandists hammer hard on their view and discourage discussion.many times their true motives are hidden.
they sift the facts, tell the favorable ones and conceal the others.

At the same time, it must be admitted that we need good and proper guidance
They have a way of inserting truths into their writings then quickly negating them within a paragraph or two and that's exactly what they did here.
You can think on your own but you need to have good and proper guidance (about what to think) and of course we are the only "good and proper guidance"

Shunned by a pharisaic elder
by ldrnomo instopped in a local eatery this evening for their famous vegetarian enchilada casserole and there was a man in there, an elder in a local congregation who i was aquatinted with (he did some work for me at my home) and we know his wife.
he was in the same congregation i was in for a time.. i went over to him to say hi and shake his hand and when i reached out he pulled his hand away so i looked over at his partner who was obviously a bible study and reached out to shake his hand and as i did i said to him the reason he wont shake my hand is that hes mad because i dont go to meetings anymore.
i walked away and nothing else was said.. .

I totally know what you mean, I thought about not saying anything or evern going over to him however I decided I didn't want to be like them. If I can be pleasent to those that I know I will. If they choose not to be pleasent back it's their choice. I was not trying to sway this study I was just blown away at the ignorance of this man who made the choice he did. I was mostley doing a check to see what would happen. This person has aged badly by the way.

There are a lot of things I could have said but chose not to say anymore then I did. I know that no matter what I would have said would do no good
Time2keep
It is ridiculous and juvinile and that is exactly what this man is. He has always been a bit of a jerk.
TOTH
Yes I would have liked to hear what he told his study about the exchange. Probably said I was mentally diseased

Your just going to have to come to my restaurant to see what a vegitarian enchalada casserole is. It goes great with a beer.
Geez Billy
I hope I didn't make them feel uncomfortable
