Dan The Man:
What I suggest is that people quit posting non-sense like this. I call it Metatronics. It's only purpose is to take a swat at JW's. It isn't well researched. It isn't truthful. And most important it isn't of any significance what-so-ever. OK if JW's really ignore Luke 6:37 you would expect they wouldn't discuss it. But as you see below they do discuss it. If they ignore it in practice then show how they are significantly different from other religions on this matter. If they don't admit their weakness in this area that would be moving in the direction of significance. However, they DO admit their short comings on this matter.

It would also show sensitivity to avoid commenting about whether the deceased will be resurrected or not. Some brothers and sisters have been deeply hurt by judgmental remarks made about the future possibilities for a dead unbelieving spouse. We are not the judges of who will or will not be resurrected. We can be relieved that Jehovah, who sees the heart, will be far more merciful than most of us would ever be.—Psalm 86:15;

"Every man must be swift about hearing, slow about speaking," says James 1:19. To help weary ones to regain power, elders must also be empathetic listeners. In some cases congregation members may be struggling with problems or pressures that cannot be solved in this system of things. What they may need, then, is not some solution to "fix" their problem but simply to talk to a good listener—someone who will not tell them how they are supposed to feel but who will listen without being judgmental.—
Luke 6:37; Romans 14:13.

In Luke’s account of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus told his hearers not to find fault with others. Rather, let them "keep on releasing," that is, forgiving the shortcomings of their fellowman. This would cause others to respond in kind, as Jesus said: "Practice giving, and people will give to you. They will pour into your laps a fine measure, pressed down, shaken together and overflowing. For with the measure that you are measuring out, they will measure out to you in return."—
Luke 6:37, 38.

During the first century C.E., the Pharisees tended to judge others harshly according to the false standards of non-Biblical traditions. Any of Jesus’ listeners who were in that habit were to "stop" it. Instead of continually finding fault with others, they should "keep on releasing," that is, forgiving and overlooking the shortcomings of their fellowman. (Compare Luke 6:37, Authorized Version.) Doing so, they would impel others to reciprocate with the same forgiving attitude.
