independent thinking .
a skill we all need .
what is independent thinking?.
Independent Thinking leads people of not following God's word the Bible.
I think (oops) that I've seen quite a few Watchtower's that encourage Witnesses NOT to give into independent thinking.
Was it Covington or Knorr that stressed "unity" over truth? I forget.

witnesses abstain from blood, right.....cool.
but] they will eat blood that is contained in meat i.e.
steak etc.
Because the GB like steak? They like meat? They came up with the ridiculous blood policy before any of them got old enough to need it?
I think that it's interesting the number of blood fractions that all of the sudden are ok. Any of the GB getting old? Need those fractions?? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

wtbts arguments against internet correspondence.. .
1. you never know for sure with whom you are communicating.. 2. they may be apostates.. 3. they may lie to you, and you won't be able to tell.. 4. they may be boys pretending to be girls.. 5. they may be porn pushers.. 6. they may be child abusers.. 7. they will waste your preaching time.. 8. there's "nothing quite like" face to face speech.. duck shooting season is upon us friends.
roll up, rollup for the summer quack-attack.
But aren't we all grownups? Can't we think for ourselves on these things??????

Don't you think that maybe that headline is just a little inflammatory?
I agree with your concept but the headline is a little sensational.

while the society have certainly printed much regrettable material i believe it is fair to admit that there was fine material too as was noted by other posters in different threads almost all of us were initially attracted to jws and i trust it often was because of good stuff printed.. one quote from the commentary on the letter of james i found appealing:.
discussing james 3:17 the book says:.
the wisdom from above makes a person reasonable, yielding, moderate or forbearing, not fanatical in his zeal .
If you and others are building a relationship with God for dates, then you guys are up the creek.
Just like the Witnesses?

i thought i would break the suspense and tell everyone what the new book is going to be at the district convention.
i can't believe that anyone has not brought it out yet.
are you ready?
Oh, I thought it would be the Bible v2.0 with all the icky stuff taken out of it.
oh wait, they did that already...
