Higher education is not condemned. Otherwise all JWs would simply be high school graduates. Also, you are not blacklisted if you receive higher education. Ive been in college fot several years and have never been blacklisted. So to answer the question honestly, no it isnt hypocritical at all.

Isn't it hypocritical for the Governing Body to feature a biochemist in Awake! magazine but at the same time condemn higher education?
by matt2414 inthe january awake!
has an entire article about a woman, a molecular biochemist, who became a witness, and yet the watchtower leaders condemn and blacklist any of their members who get a college education.
i couldn't stop thinking about this as i read the article.

Serious Question
by Prisca inas we all know the society has very strict guidelines regarding conduct between the sexes.
in the cong i grew up in, it was so small-minded that if you were single, and seen talking to a member of the opposite sex, you were presumed to be in some sort of relationship with him/her.. sex before marriage is out of the question, with heavy petting also looked down upon.
dating is a serious affair, with all onlookers expecting engagement/marriage to be the outcome.

I didn't like the name Olin Moyle, as I really do not know much about him, other than he's a popular topic on many JW forums. I like Recovery better because it describes this kind of 'refining' process I'm going through right now in my life.
Thanks for the comments and the sarcasm and the insults. It's good to be back.
