Skydiving/Parachuting. A disfellowship offense?

by stealthmode-brazil in

i'm an active witness from brazil (who would leave if it weren't for my family/friends inside) and always dreamed about practicing skydiving.

but as radical sports are a no-no for witnesses... i wonder if any elder or ex-elder on this forum knows if an active jw, practices skydiving/parachuting once and/or regularly, can he or she be disfellowship on that basis?

i'm considering secretly jumping but afraid if someone finds out.

Jomavrick - "parachuting without a chute"?

You mean plummetting! Well I guess you could try it once.

I remember an interview of him once and he was asked why he was always having financial problems.

He was asked what he did with the $100,000 he would receive as an advance for a record and his reply was:

"I would get $100,000 as an advance, and I would buy a red convertible Corvette, $20,000 worth of cocaine, and well the rest I spent on foolishness." Lol.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/bertrand_russell.

bertrand arthur william russell, 3rd earl russell, om, frs[1] (18 may 1872 2 february 1970) was a british philosopher, logician, mathematician, historian, and social critic.

[2] at various points in his life he considered himself a liberal, a socialist, and a pacifist, but he also admitted that he had never been any of these in any profound sense.

I like many of his quotations - here is one of my favorites:

"The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts."
