Would You Have Remained A Witness If They Weren't Sooo Strict?
by minimus ini think i would've probably tolerated the religion if "conscience" really did play a role in the religion.
there are many people in religions that do not believe every thing that is taught, yet they are still members in good standing.
of course, jehovah's witnesses aren't like that.. you have to believe it all or you will be "no longer considered a jehovah's witness".

An old friend of mine was deleted as an elder... you're gonna love why!
by JimmyPage init seems my friend stepped in to help his daughter out of an abusive relationship with her boyfriend.
the crime?
his daughter is disfellowshipped.

yes he should have left the abusive relationship well alone.. after all, if the daughter got to the end of her tether, she may have had no option other than to return, and now he may be blodguilty.
twisted.

What is an elder?
by acolytes ini have concluded that elders are people who take it as their right to torture any baptised member of the congregation who will not conform to their standards.. why do i say this?.
basically i think they see anyone who does not live up to their standards as a threat in which they risk exposure to fealings they would rather die than face.
(the irony they pride themselfs in thinking they are in the "truth").

depends what cong you are in. - theres always people everywhere that use religion as a mask to lord it over others. - and some are genuine.
and i say that even after having faced a few JCs in my time.

Is it wrong
by notknowing inis it wrong that i am now part of a ministry where we reach out to the young and old.
we go into prisons and juvenile detention centers to talk to the kids and adults to encourage them to read there bible and to show motivation.
the way how we do this is through our motorcycle and the stunts we perform.
