For the most part, Witnesesscannot be reached bcuase any attept to challenge any belief puts them on the defensive and no way you will evr grt through to them. Believe me, I never lost a debate or a discussion as a witness and tha was because witn=esess are taught and are prepared for this sort of thing, I did my homeowrk and I belived with all of my heart,
Now, if a fellow witness tried to reach a witness, he would get nowher at all except to be repoerted as an apostate.
The only time a jw is vulnerable to re examine his jw views is if he gets angry at the wts or if a trusted and loved and respected fwllow jwtalks about issues, then and only then will a jw open his mind and lokk at things from another perspective, aAs Goph said in another thread, jws have a ceratin mind set they are in a box, they can only get out of the box on their own with clear and logical thinking. Problem is that most people dont know how to think

we dont know one way or another if we will have to be judged by god and possibly punished for our "sins" better safe than sorry?

or, just do what makes you happy and worry about it when the times comes?

James The Bible reveals a killer God, Humanity gets information about God from the Bible. What other wsource of widom are you suggesting. Until now humanity dies and suffers as it waits for the God you seem to describe

Dark: All people are kind by nature, Desperate people do desperate things. Then again just like in the animal creation some animals are friendly others are mean and agreesive. Could God really be just if he judged people by their actions? Can you really blame people for reacting the way they do. People steal kill harm and indulge in taboos to SURVIVE and to quench their desires. Ever watct the good the bad and the ugly. Tuco did what he had to do to survive his brother Pablo took the easy way by bemimg a priest. Kindness and cruelty you contrast?

Why should a victim of the crime of being born a sinner have to work?

Being publicly reproved

years ago my husband and i were publicly reproved.

we had gone out with some "worldly friends" from work and went dancing and had a few drinks too many.

well someone must have been around to see us and told the elders.

Going out with wordly friend and even drinking too much is not enough to be publicly reproved. Maybe you did did something more serious. But whatever the case public reproof is a humiliating experience that one cannot recover from in relation to other jws and the pecking order, No one wwill take you seriously again.
