    Give a few examples in which the Watchtower should stick to religion and mind it's own business in the internal affairs of it's members.

    1) Whatever has to do with health and medical treatment.

    2) Who you can marry and sex they can have.

    Add to the list.

    - The internet discussions you can have including what you think of your religion online

    * How much education one wishes to pursue.

    * What a person does to earn a living.

    It was always disturbing, especially as I look back, at the complete lack of boundaries among the Witnesses. Some, especially some of the elders, felt completely free to comment on ANYTHING in your life - the tie you chose, your haircut, your music, the bumper sticker on your car. God, how sick is that! That lack of boundaries is a big indicator of how unhealthy the WTS is. The way the WTS has nitpicked its way through the blood issue alone is just a huge disaster.

    To add to the list:

    They should keep their noses out of what I do for work.

    They should keep thier noses out of what movies I see.

    They should keep their noses out of what I wear.

    They liked to tell us what kind of music we should and shouldn't be listening to, which I don't think is their business.

    I also don't like how they tell you to limit association with non - jw family.

    Great idea outlaw! I like that one. Considering they have no real education on anything biblical, who are they to dictate what the bible really says??
