I also doubt they will ban it. Like Undercover said, they will disparage it and "Mark" those in the congregation that have a fb account.
Ya that's basically what I meant...guess I could've worded it better but you know what I mean lol. It's one of many unwritten rules that if broken gets you in trouble.

I'm not sure of this info but I do know that one of the largest Facebook JW forums was shut down by the owner due to this "possibility". Here's an email from the owner below...
"Myself and Helen have had a chat and we have decided that we are going to close the group. The recent unchristian activity bought about by so called witnesses and attacks on other members is just not what we wanted for the group.
Our aim was to have a clean forum in which we could all chat and enjoy company yet it has become a place of suspiciousness and where people are having to try to prove who they are.
I believe that the society are going to bring out a comment about face book at the assembly and Myself and Helen dont actually want to be part of anything that brings Jehovahs name into disrepute.
I would suggest you remove yourselves from all witness groups as they are full of these so called witnessess waiting to pounce pretending to be someone they are not. I will leave it up to your own conscience but by removing the group i know my conscience will be clear.
It was lovely talking to you all and both me and Helen are sorry it had to come to this.
Warm christian blessings"
I hope this is not the case because I have meet some great people on FB...any thoughts on this?

Read the first paragraph (below)....wow how/why do they write this stuff?
"THERE is a difference—a big difference—between education and propaganda. Education shows you how to think. Propaganda tells you what to think. Good educators present all sides of an issue and encourage discussion.Propagandists relentlessly force you to hear their view and discourage discussion. Often their real motives are not apparent. They sift the facts, exploiting the useful ones and concealing the others. They also distort and twist facts, specializing in lies and half-truths. Your emotions, not your logical thinking abilities, are their target."

ive recently been looking at a non-jw tract this was an interesting paragraph.
watchtower 1st 1954 page 31. there we read "jehovahs witnesses are proud of the fact that they have eliminated from their song books, songs praising jesus (revelation, its grand climax at hand, page 36)".
i was in the org.
San wrote "you blamed me repeatedly and have made a fool of me". Um no sir you do a fine job of that on your own....
