  You are making me laugh ianao.

  knowing full well that he would chastize a member of another christian faith for doing likewise

  Actually in this case I would not. Other religions also have their own rights to practice their faith in this country.

  ianao: Are you a moron or are you just acting like one? The Witnesses use the system for their benefit. We learned from Paul.

  Lawsuits are always a great sign of a tender god-fearing love thy neighbor attitude.

  Oh shut up! Witnesses are fighting for their right to preach to people. Filing a suit is not unloving, it's a right.

  It seems to me that the article is only a brief history of the Declaration of Human Rights. What's wrong with that?

  Are you that desperate to find the WTS at fault?

  1 Tim. 6:4 - From these things spring envy, strife, abusive speeches, wicked suspicions.

  Commentary:

  Evidently, in the apostle Paul's day, there were some in the congregation who failed to control their tongue and got involved in quibbling debates about words. (1 Tim. 2:8) There were others who thought too much of their own opinions and even went so far as to challenge the authority of Paul. (2 Cor. 10:10-12) Such a spirit resulted in needless conflicts. (Gal. 5:15) We do well to acknowledge the potential for such futile debates. Of course, it is normal to discuss Bible accounts or wonder about aspects of the promised new world that have not as yet been revealed. And there is nothing wrong with exchanging ideas on personal matters. However, if we become dogmatic about our ideas and take offense when others do not agree with us, the congregation may end up becoming divided over minor issues. w 5/1/00

  Addition To post on Disfellowshipping!

  i should have closed with the following comnment on my post.. when the clean-up is finally done by the messiah through the angels it will be fair and just.

  no one at that time will be able to argue what he does.they will not be able to say it is a cruel practice.

  it wasn't in the 1st century as i showed in the article.

  do you have a statistic on this, or is it just your own b.s.? i highly doubt that the majority of disfellowshipped ones are welcomed back into the congregation, and i would be willing to bet that a large portion of reinstated ones are actually disfellowshipped again.

  What YK said is true, at least in my congregation. I don't know about worldwide statistics, but I will use statistics in my present congregation. One of our elders was disfellowshipped at one time. He was out for 3 years. After coming back he worked on his spiritually and slowly made progress. He is an excellent brother and elder. Another example is our district overseer, he was disfellowshipped when he was younger and also progressed spiritually. We currently have two sisters that are disfellowshipped and they are both attending meetings. In the last 10 years there was only one person that was disfellowshipped, came back, then disfellowshipped again. She is now back again and doing very well.

  In the cases I have seen the disfellowshipped ones were welcomed back into the family of God.

  Why the bible does'nt make sense to me

  for some odd reason this morning when i woke up the first thing that came into my mind was the suffering and pain that humans deal with on a daily basis.

  again i'm not really sure what made me think about that so early in the morning.

  (maybe it was a dream i had).

  The problem is not just Jehovah vs. Satan. The problem is also against humans. By disobeying, Adam and Eve were basically saying that they did not need Jehovah. So Jehovah says fine, let everyone see how things go. He allowed humans to make their point, he allowed them to govern themselves without him interfering. What we see today is what humans have brought upon humans. It does seem like a long time, so I see your point there, but we are on Jehovahs timetable and there is nothing that he can't undue at its right time.

  Disappointment

  a couple of months ago i was addicted to this board when the whole un thing was going on.

  i really thought that the exposure of the wts's involvement would open the door for me to walk away from the wt without reprucussions, you know, a valid excuse so as to not be shunned.

  (a pipe dream, i know) .

  TweetieBird: You're still making something out nothing. You are imputing bad motives when there were none. Joseph made an excellent analysis in the following thread: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.asp?id=17010&site=3
