Standfirm; I noticed that you did not respond to a pointed rebuttal made by Beenthere26yr (on his post #9 pg. 4). You answered almost everyone's posts between your post #7 (on page 4) and the one immediately following on your post #9 (page 5). You even answered Leapofthefrog’s similar but not explicitly worded post.
Beenthere26yr made reference to a Watchtower issue that is in blatant and irrefutable, contradiction to your claims about its tolerance on visiting Apostate websites.
I quote a succession of posts below in chronological order to demonstrate your disingenuous and dishonest rationalizations.
StandFirm:
"I don't believe that the organization states that sites like this must be avoided when one already is familiar with the ideas presented. And no, I do not count time here. This is more of a hobby."
"I see this to mean that those who are exposed to apostate arguments who do honest research on them will see them to be false."
Beenthere26yr:
From July 15, 2011 Watchtower, page 11 “What must we do to avoid false teachers? We do not speak to them or invite them into our houses. We also do not read their books, watch them on television, read what they write on the Internet, or add our own comments about what they write on the Internet.
StandFirm quoting Leapofthefrog:
“Andre is shown as a bad example not to be followed. But if one was already exposed to apostate ideas, then it shows that from there that honest research is what would to dispel them. At least, that is how the Society must feel. I agree.”
Bottom line StandFirm, I challenge you to stand firm to that explicit statement made in the July 15, 2011 Watchtower. Don't dodge the issue anymore or make silly statements like "that is how the Society must (MUST?!?!?!) feel." The Watchtower explicitly says "we" without making a distinction between apostate savvy "we" and weak minded "we".
You know that Andre was used as an example for EVERY SINGLE WITNESS TO FOLLOW! NO EXCEPTIONS, YOU INCLUDED!
