It gets easier.
Slowly, but surely.

What do you think about the Kingdom Ministry Question Box?
Why is the organization concerned about a few associates getting together for deep Bible study and to learn Greek and Hebrew?
Seems odd doesn't it?

Think about something:
Take a look at what it is you are reading.
Where did the research come from?
Who supports it?

Thought I'd revive this thread for a work mate. This person was raised as a dub, been out of the borg for around 15 years now. She still, however has many issues with the borg (don't most of us?). I know she has been lurking here, I'd really like her to start posting as I know she's going to fit right in.
Come on! Register and post!
Buy you a capaccino at lunchtime tomorrow if you do!

nvr ... guess technically I'm no lurker but want to reply to your post about the Question Box.
The organization is not telling anyone not to do serious study or research.
The organization is not endorsing their findings.

How do you think the directives will be enforced by most elders, and what do you feel may have motivated this position?
Thanks,

nvr ... I can't speak for the elders. I'm sure they will see it much as I do.
I think the reason for the subject being addressed is that there are some sites owned and operated by JWs, where they have deep studies and discussions on the internet. Their conclusions may or may not coincide with proper scriptural doctrine.
No one is saying they have to stop their activity. The society, however, cannot endorse their findings.
