    This seems to be a favorite topic to bring up to any Witnesses who post on any website where there are any opposers, either here or Topix or anywhere.

    So, here is the one and only place I will be discussing it. Who can prove that Witnesses are specifically told not to post on websites about them?

    7/15/11 WT.. Sorry you probably don't have the hard copy yet. We keep up with "Jehovah's Chariot" more than most active JWs

    7 What is involved in avoiding false teachers? We do not receive them into our homes or greet them.

    We also refuse to read their literature, watch TV programs that feature them, examine their Web sites, or add

    our comments to their blogs.

    Standfirm, simply go tell your elders you post here, give them the url. Then report back to us what happens.

    This is what is written in that article. Go to JW.org and you will be able to read July's article from there... You as a JW are not allowed to read literature, watch TV programmes that feature them or examine so called Apostate Website .....

    There was another article years ago which said not to accept apostate lit, this would be the same as inviting an 'apostate' into your home to relate his 'apostate' ideas to you.

    It appears 'StandFirm' is correct.

    If you type in the phrase 'do not post on websites' into the 2010 cdrom nothing comes up.
