Sometimes we're all too hard on BBoy. I mean, I make fun of him sometimes and I get mad at him when he hijacks threads but I know he's gonna help me run Barter Town one day. Right BBoy? Who run Barter Town?

I think you're confusing Bible rules and Watchtower Society rules...they're two separate things.

"...no matter how ridiculous their rules seem and strict a religion...they work."
So, you're not a JW but you know that the JW rules work? I believe if they did work nobody would be on this forum. If they did work, there wouldn't be people on this forum shunned by family members, there wouldn't be people on this forum that have been sexually abused as children because of the WTs policy of protecting child molesters, there wouldn't be people on this forum trying to figure out how to fit into general society...and on and on. By the way, many people on this forum didn't leave, they were forced out. -

What do you Find Encouraging?
by Golf init's refreshing and encouraging to meet polite people.
people holding doors for others, people saying thank you and please.
people who return their shopping carts in the stalls.

G- Sometimes it's just a matter of growing up and out of the JW mindframe. I can't say I always feel awkward when someone gives me a compliment but then I have those days...

Faithful and Discreet Slave "class"
by snbdye2000 ini have a question as to who the wtbts teaches is the faithful and discreet slave.
i am not a jw, never have been.
my husband though is reading a lot of their books and such.

Okay the first paragraph is a quote from the watchtower saying that the slave are the "anointed" ones or the "144,000" that will be the only ones to go to heaven and rule alongside Jehovah and these people are represented by the governing body--so the anointed and the governing body are the discreet slave. Everyone else is considered "other sheep " or "the great crowd." The great crowd is not part of the "faithful and discreet slave" class.

Witnesses of Jehovah understand that the "slave" (of Matthew 24:45) is comprised of all anointed Christians as a group on earth at any given time during the 19 centuries since Pentecost. Accordingly, the domestics are these anointed followers of Christ as individuals." As individuals, or "domestics," these anointed or "born again" followers of Christ, are said to be represented and fed by the "slave," who represents them all as a collective body or group.The "belongings" then represent all of Christ's interests on earth, which supposedly include a non-anointed or non-"born again" earthly class of Christians, which are interpreted to be those of the "other sheep" in John 10:16 and the "great crowd" in Revelation 7:9. -Watchtower March 1, 1981.
I'm sorry your husband has got into this. He should know and care about what's been taught before 2000 because it's the basis for JW beliefs. By the way, the organization has flip flopped so many times that they have a term for it- "new light."
