  Jehovah's Witnesses - Are they loving?

  by brotherdan in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  jehovah's witnesses love to claim that they are a true religion because they are the most loving people on earth.

  they rant and rave about how they apply john 13:35 to themselves.. in a recent conversation with djeggnog, i was shocked at some of the hateful things that he was saying to me.

  now i know that i have been in some pretty heated debates with others, but i try to never make it personal.

  I have nothing left to say to him. I'm not wasting another second on that guy.

  Now now Brotherdan is that loving your enemy ?

  i detest this type of posting.

  it's only my opinion of course and so long as forum rules aren't breached we're all free to express ourselves as we see fit.

  doesn't mean i have to like it though.. honestly, can't you make your point without this kind of infantile name calling?

  Show me one WT quote just one re: apostates that isn't derogatory and I will repent and use respectful terms when referring to the GB

  Being responsible for your behaviour

  i make excuses for my ex and witness relatives telling myself that they're not responsible because they are under mind controll.

  but is that good enough.

  can treating someone as if they don't exist be excused ?

  The reason I ask It's been over 10 years and I sometimes write letters to my JW relatives saying what purpose does it serve to continue to ignore me that it is not loving etc ...BUT I never post them ...cause I then reason what good would it do if they are not responsible for their actions, that I can't hold them accountable Very frustrating

  lou bou to (how did you come up with that name?)......

  It's spelt wrong but it is how they say my name Robert in Chinese. A luo bou is a vegetable what we call a horse radish back home. I was teaching some children and as a joke complained about being named after a vegetable ..saying ...why can't you call me after a tiger or a dragon or something strong instead of a vegetable... when one sweet little darling spoke up and said.. but luo bou to ...luo bours are delicious Precious!

  Just a thought I have been living in China the past three years and I see the devotion and love the Chinese have for their children yet aborion I believe is fairly common So I wonder how much of the guilt I hear from woman who have had abortions back home in Australia can be attributed to ones social values

  Enjoyed your thoughts Undercover especially this one Only once did I truly shun someone who was close...and I did it at one of the lowest moments in their life. And I felt like shit for days afterwards

  You felt responsible for behaviour you considered wrong Good for you

  If they couldn't punish you for free thinking or leaving the faith, the vast majority of us wouldn't look back as we walked out the door.

  The real reason Control To call it love is bullshit

  The Botchtower creates disabled thinking, self-righteous, holier-than-thou, haughty, judgmental, angry people. When one builds oneself on this kind of foundation, there is only one outcome that can be come from this and that is destruction.

  So Heaven are you saying they are not responsible they can blame the Botchtower for their behaviour

  I think its a question of being responsible for our behaviour, NOT allowing an organisation to dictate who we shun

  Good point Acylotes Even so I doubt that you would be deliberatly rude to people you choose not to associate with when you met them in the street like so many witnesses do

  We give them permission I was the same as you Nugget even had one around for dinner to encourage him back it always seemed so inhumane to me to treat them like dirt Now that I am on the receiving end I am convinced of it

  Erm, I hope you're not suggesting that God causes miscarriages?

  No I am not sugesting that But there is definately one instance in the bible where he did as a punishment I'm sure others will know the scripture I am not able to look it up for you at present My point is that there are no scriptural laws in the old testament that consider the life of the foetus sacrosant ( please excuse any spelling errors I am in a net bar and there is no spellcheck on this computer)

Can treating someone as if they don't exist be excused ? My mother didn't I asked her why She said "I brought you into the world your still my son". I think for many shunning appeals to some witnesses. Feeds their self righteousness What do you think?

  I think it's wrong no matter what.

  I was disfellowshipped for supporting my 14 year old daughters' decision not to have the child of her rapist. As a family we would have survived this tragedy but for the Elders poking their nose in.

  As mrs Jones says "It is none of your business stay out of it"

  Yes I believe in God and their are scriptures in the OT where he punished women by causing them to have abortions or would you prefer the more sesitive term miscarriages and none that condemn it
