  Things in the past that show you that your doubts started earlier than you thought

  i was just talking to my wife this morning about underlining or highlighting the wt paragraphs.. when i was 13 years old i would fight with my dad because i refused to highlight the answers.. the reason was because i wanted my comment to be genuine.

  i felt that highlighting the "answer" made me lean on just using that as a crutch and not truly putting it in my own words.. i still hold that argument now, and i am 26. the only reason you would ever have to highlight something in a study book would be if you needed to remember it, maybe it is fairly complicated or subtle information that could be easily forgotten.. so many times in the wt the "question" has the same phrase that's in the paragraph!

  it's literally like playing connect the dots.. so what i would do is not highlight during the family study.

  i just wanted to introduce myself.

  my name is chris and i'm on my way out of the only "society" i've known.. i was raised a witness and have been a ministerial servant for a while now.

  i recently notified the elder body that i will be stepping down and it will soon be official.

  a very solemn warning!.

  how many people today really understand the bible?

  would we believe that, some or any, for that matter, of the mainline religious leader's of christendom's great system of religion, understand the bible well enough to teach it to their flock's?
