You argued in a good way with them.
When charged with shunning and destroying families they say that it is the brothers and sisters personel decision how they apply this. On the other hand they write it clearly in the wt that families should have no communication at all.
When talking about judgement, they nowadays say that we don't know who is going to survive; it's jehovah and jesus deciding. On the other hand they say for anyone to survive must be in the modern day ark (jehovahs org).
And concerning child abuse they say it is because the org is imperfect and brothers making mistakes. Bit no word of apology or sympathy for the victims. I heard it from jw's who say those child abuse victims are greedy and just want money.
I had the same discussions with co and elders also about birthday, flood and openly told them that I would accept blood.
Their favourite question which they are able to ask in many different ways is: " Do you believe the gb is the faithful and discreet slave?"
After debating and asking the branch office they decided that they would only disfellowship me if I talk to others about it. Probably that is their tactic today.
In the 80s you could have even been dfd just because you had a different view of doctrine.
After all those discussions I realized it is a total waste of time and if they ever want to meet with me again I ll just tell them. "Thank you., but my personal faith is personal and I won't discuss it with you.
