Are Dubs warned about JWD at Meetings?
by Low-Key Lysmith ini havn't been to a meeting in years.
i was just wondering if this site is talked about @ meetings, and/or in the publicatons.
i'm sure reproof or disfellowshipping would be instant if a dub was found looking into such "apostacy".

Opinions on Age of Baptismal Candidates
by redskymedic ini am sure i am not the only one that thinks it's ridiculous that they allow pre-teens and young teens to get baptized.
i know now that i did not have a full understanding of the implications of baptism.
i did it primarily because that's what was expected.
