  Why we can't afford tax cuts

  by SixofNine in

  1. social
  2. current

  republicans and democrats have distracted us with unending battles between haves and have-nots for decades.

  over the same period, they have bankrupted the country.

  perhaps that terror, not currency traders or al-qaeda, may explain the odd market decline after a tax cut that was supposed to make stocks soar.

  visits to inactive ones is there any directives recieved by elders

  by quinah in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i know i might have asked this before, but have the elders ever had any directive on visiting inactive ones with a view to finding out their current situation/feelings on being a witness, and then using a negative response as an "excuse" for disassociating them or disfellowshipping them?

  i thought i had read some where that there had been a push on visiting inactive ones with a view to doing the above.

  i have just mentioned this to the in-laws who are still in the borg, and they asked another elder who denys the fact that this would be done.

  quinah-

  the directive was in both the Feb. and the March 2003 Kingdom Ministries. I don't have the scans handy, but you may want to ask Stephanus. I believe he has the scans.

  *edited to add

  This is just the directive to the elders to visit inactive ones from Jan-March. I don't believe you'll find anything that tells them to automatically df or da ones who don't want to come back.

  I know, teej. It's hard to believe, isn't it? A sweet little meek thing like me.

  Actually, I am the most stubborn person I know. For reals! I choose to not see it as a bad thing.

  You are quite welcome, hillary_step.

  I like you and I thought that was a totally inaccurate assessment of you. It seems our friend clash was baiting you so you would censor him and then he could cry foul and assume the role of the victim.

  It takes character to take the high road. You, sir, have character.
