Is Mutual Respect Possible?
by Sociologist inone of the most striking things about this and similar message boards concerning jehovah's witnesses is the strength of feeling jw-related discussions evoke.
as i dabble in sociology, i was wondering what you all thought about the following questions.
my objective is not to criticize persons belonging to other group but rather to attempt to grasp the dynamics of the conflicts at work here.. the questions:.

APOSTATE DUBS----STONE COLD KILLERS?
by You Know inas part of the sign of his presence, jesus said: "furthermore, brother will deliver brother over to death, and a father a child, and children will rise up against their parents and have them put to death.

Theocratic War Strategy at my house
by freeman inwell it looks like i find myself in the middle of the jw battlefield once again fighting the borg for nothing less then the soul of my younger son.

"Shepherd the Flock" book.
by Bosho inhey,.
i'm relatively new here and wondered if any ex-elders (or indeed anyone who knows) could tell me what's so secret about the "shepherd the flock" book.. what is in that book that they don't want ordinary publishers to see?.
i haven't met an elder yet that can give me a good answer as to why it's kept so quiet.. any help would be gratefully received.
