Would Elders You Knew Have Ordered Stonings If They Could Have?
by Cold Steel infor those of you who used to be jws, or who are active, if the society was in charge of the earth, how many people do you think you would have seen stoned during your lifetimes?
i realize some elders can be zealous about their work, but if they'd actually had administrative authority to have kh members stoned to death, how many elders did you know who would have been zealous enough to really order them?.
did you know any elders who would have ordered stonings, even if the condemned people had been willing to repent?.

My Role Here
by Joe Grundy ini am, as i always start my posts by saying, not a current or an ex-jw.. i rarely contirbute to threads where the topic of discussion is about the current feelings of jws trapped in, or their past experiences because i just don't have the personal knowledge to share.
i can empathise, but not from personal experience, if you know what i mean.. many new posters, it seems to me, are exiting jwdom and are nervous because of jw teachings about inter-acting with us non-jws, us 'worldly' people.. so, it seems to me, that if by normal interaction, i can assist in showing that us 'worldly' people are not so bad it might just help someone sometime.. and, as ever, if i can be of practical assistance in real life, happy to do so..

Proof of adultery no longer needed to be spiritually free to remarry
by WuzLovesDubs inso this is what my soon to be ex says to me today...the same person who is courting wooing and flirting with a sister and has been for a very long time even way before i told him i wanted a divorce.
he tells me that they "dont spy on people any more to get proof" that my just telling him i did or him telling the elders that i did is "sufficient" for him to be free.
he also said hes not allowed to talk to said sister any more because she is "spiritually free" but not divorced yet!
