Fred, you're obviously a person who holds the Watchtower Society in high regard. Which makes me curious why you would be frequenting a website and associating with individuals that would doubtless be considered by the WTS to fall into the category of apostate. Surely, since you do respect their advice and are bound by their guidance, you would want to avoid contaminating yourself by arguing with those you have been strongly counseled to avoid as "bad association." Do you feel you can correct the thinking of those who frequent this board?
Why all the venom?

I've said the following a few times. The game of Golf has more rules to abide by than the Bible. Golf rules are designed TO SAVE YOU STROKES NOT PENALIZE YOU!!!! Once you understand this concept, the game takes on a new meaning. Happy golfing.

Fred's reply: Do you? Why does anyone have conversation, then? Surely love overcomes hatred, respect triumphs over contempt. Truly, Proverbs 21:30 tells it like it is: There is no wisdom, nor any discernment, nor any counsel in opposition to Jehovah.

Why all the venom?
It's very simple. The watchtower cult preaches it's hatred for everything it does not control. They should not be surprised when people feel the same way about them.

There is no wisdom, nor any discernment, nor any counsel in opposition to Jehovah.
But when it comes to the WTS and JW's.....its open game. Why? Becasue the WTS and JW's don't speak for Jehovah.
The other 99.9% of the worlds population already knows this. Someone needs to break it to the WTBTS.

For the record, LynMelo's original post is 14 months old. Since that time she came to her senses and saw the dubs for what they were (click on her post history and watch her doubts unfold - after she watched a video of the Dateline report on child molestation among JWs, she was apparently "cured" of the desire to become a dub.

Truly, Proverbs 21:30 tells it like it is: There is no wisdom, nor any discernment, nor any counsel in opposition to Jehovah. I still am waiting for an answer. If you, Fred, believe that the WTS is the font of all truth from Jehovah, then why are you, Fred, still here on a board that they consider apostate? If you have any question about the appropriateness of being here, I'm sure if you contacted Brooklyn they would strongly counsel you to stay away from the dangers of the Internet. So once more, Fred, can you explain why you are acting in direct opposition to the counsel of an organization you regard as being God's representative on earth?

Hey Fred,
Where you at last year's district convention? Did you say "aye" to
the seven-point resolution? How about the point about not participating
on internet chatrooms? (I know this is a Discussion Forum, but there
are obvious similarities).You are mixing with apostates here. Do you really think you should
be doing that, being the loyal jw you seem to be? If you think you are
going to change anybody's views of the org with your wts bull$hit,
think again. Many have tried, and failed, before you. We all know
better than to fall for that crap again.dedpoet
