For AllTimeJeff on JW Accountability

compound complex

Hi Jeff:

My post on your thread re: JW Accountability does not display, at least on my screen. In any event, I felt you would find this older Awake! quotation interesting. Speaking from 2 sides of their mouth ...

ATJ:

Hi there! You may find this oldie to be a goodie:

IF YOUR CHURCH FAILS TO ACT, WILL YOU?

"If, after making an honest investigation, you are LESS THAN PLEASED with what you see, do more than just COMPLAIN. A journalist, while commenting on Karl Barth's statement that a church is its members, logically concluded: 'Church members...are responsible for what the church says and does.' So ask yourself: Am I willing to share responsibility for EVERYTHING my church says and does? Can I really be proud of having all its members as spiritual brothers?" [CC emphasis]

coco,

I've spoken with ATJeff. He is a pleasant fellow and a fair fellow. It's always nice to know someone who is open and willing to take in new stuff and benefit from it. Unfortunately, that sort of attitude is alien to the female of the species. Their minds were made up in 5th grade and frozen in time and they take it to their graves.

I can prove this.....

Heh, heh.

Hello, Farkel:

If I were in the UK, I wouldn't touch your statement with a pair of tongs; however, as I live in the States, allow me to employ, instead, a ten-foot pole!

Bonsoir, mon ami.
