WH, yes I believe that a splinter group will develop as more generations continue and realize who that man is behind the curtain. The internet, and these websites are a resfreshment.

Well, this is all very interesting, but, I work for the government and I have never disclosed private personal information.
I remember an Elder mentioning to me about an Employee who worked at a Hotel, that wasn't on the Soc. approved list. It was very convienient, because it was situated right next to the Convention. This employee was asked to disclose the names of the ones who stayed at that hotel, so that if any were found out to be Elders, or MS's they would lose their positions.
I was appalled at that. I told that Elder that I was shocked to hear about that, and that I would never go against a sworn oath and disclose such information. I was shocked that the Society endorsed this kind of spying

Heaven, good comeback, but..
They will support that by saying that it applies to the teaching positions in the church....not outside...after all women are not permitted to teach in the cong.

WH. Good point. I do think that the ORG is worried about Perception though. If the newspapers printed that JW's are punished for not doing FS, they would have worse problems.

LOL, well Ding, somethings are best not being vocal about. Like, what you plan to do when entering the washroom...like, what you plan to do with that kleenex when you pull it out of your pocket. I'm sure the silent approach works well, in this.

I thought it was a sacrifice of lips...a voluntary offering.
I do see how it has been spun to read as a commandment in the publications. But the scriptures says that we are commanded to love one another, but when that law is broken we are not under threat of punishment. I guess that is why the inactive are not punished.

Heard something strange last week. A speaker in the congregation said that you must preach. He stated that this is a commandment.
I was wondering, if the Society has ever printed it that way. I have heard that it was a voluntary sacrifice. Has anyone ever read it from the publications that way?
