  "all scripture is inspired of god and beneficial for teaching".

  Did you burn the sacred documents?

  by LovesDubs in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ...or did you shred the shit out of em so even the garbage man wouldnt become accidentally sucked into this cult like i did?

  during the time i read crisis of conscience i went into a two week long rage.

  i was angry all the time for being duped and i hated every witness on the planet, mostly for being as stupid as i was, and the upper echelon at the society...i just wanted to castrate them.

  Elders/former Elders, help with this?

  by wasasister in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  actually, i don't care if you ever were an elder if you can find the appropriate reference in the wt for the following situation:.

  with all the discussion lately about the need for "two witnesses" to make an accusation valid, i've been thinking about divorce (and ultimately, remarriage) on the grounds of adultery.

  in most cases, an adulterous mate does not commit the deed in public.

  Special assembly day

  by comment in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i attended a local special assembly day yesterday.

  didn't seem like too much had changed overall.

  however, i've got some questions.. 1) when did the society decide to revert to allowing witnesses to study more than one book with their bible studies?
