I totally agree Vidiot, I definitely would rather stand alone also.

Maybe Vidiot, or witnesses might say this is simply where the chariot is at right now. If those changes were made earlier, that would have been running ahead of the chariot. I had a conversation with a branch overseer from a foreign country one time who said something interesting in response to a smart alec and negative remark I made about Ray Franz once. He said, "I knew Ray Franz and liked him. He may have been right about some things but too far ahead".

These are good changes but really they are still marginal. It has occurred to me the dress changes were going have to happen because when you look at what is available nowadays it's getting harder and harder to find suits.
This may have made a difference to me 20 years ago but now it seems too little, too late.
On a side note, when will yoga pants be allowed for women?
Also, for us apostates, nothing has changed.

How can Babylon the Great be the WORLD of false religion?
by BoogerMan in(revelation 17:5) “babylon the great, the mother of the prostitutes (plural!
) and of the disgusting things of the earth.”.
btg is spotlighted as being the principal "disgusting thing" which affects christians & christianity, with other lesser "prostitutes" in the background... (revelation 18:4) “get out of her, my people, (christians) if you do not want to share with her in her sins, and if you do not want to receive part of her plagues.".

Believe me the scholarship you are talking about brings plenty of bias. But of course I'm sure if you don't agree with it then it must not be proper. -

My view is consistent with scholarship as well. It is and has been taught by seminaries and universities for a very long time. Science and religion does not have to be a zero sum game in my view. They can be reconciled. The answers to do that are out there for those who are interested.

Halloween
by NotFormer injust a bit of idle speculation.. on another thread, a publisher was reported to the elders for smoking 🚬, when all they were actually doing was holding a drinking straw in mcdonald's.. is it plausible to be questioned by elders about wearing something that looks a bit too much like a costume on the 31st of october?
🧛🧜.
for that matter, wearing red and green on the 25th of december?

I imagine it is plausible to be questioned by the elders for just about anything.

Yes, I'm aware of your view. But there are other views that make more sense. To each their own. I simply stated mine in this thread originally but of course because of your black and white thinking, only your view can be 'correct' and you must make sure to put down other views.
