'Clergy' and 'Ordained Ministers'
by OrphanCrow inwhat i can't seem reconcile are the concepts of 'clergy' and 'ordained minister'.. the wts has consistently won legal battles, specifically in cases involving military exemption, by making the claim that each and every baptized jw is an 'ordained minister'.
and, they bolstered this label with the assertion that 'we do not have a clergy class'.
so, why is that different now in the sex abuse trials that happening right now?

Just had a thiught
by Jonathan Drake inthe catholic church skews there numbers by counting as catholics even those who no longer attend and may not even profess to be catholic.
do jehovah's witness do something similar or even the same thing?
they seem to be very much in favor of going inactive imo.

Golden Rule: Pure Garbage?
by willmarite inon another thread a poster made the comment that the golden rule was garbage.
she said it was arrogant and made assumptions.. i didn't want to derail that thread so i started another wondering if this is a common thought about this belief on this forum.
i guess i naively thought the value of doing to others as you want them to do to you was generally accepted as positive.. i understand people have different opinions of jesus as a person but i don't want to get into that here.

If you got something better than the Golden Rule that can also be stated in few words I want to hear it.
Already did. Read this direction ^^^^^
I am sure I can work out unforeseen circumstances and exceptions to the rule without the extra rules that you suggest.
I didn't suggest them, I was commenting on someone else saying it was required for the golden rule to work.
