alcoholism a clear and present danger for JWs and XJWs?
by quietlyleaving ini was having an interesting discussion with an xjw recently and we both knew of elders who were alcoholic but who were allowed to keep their privileges because their condition was described as a disease.
the elder i knew was also spotted in a drunken state on a couple of occasions.
he kept his privileges.

a card I received that reallly upset me
by quietlyleaving ina couple fo days ago two witnesses knocked with their children, they gave me flowers and a card with the following message:.
"we want you know that we love you, and that you are in our prayers..we are thinking about you.. we remember too, and are grateful for yur support in the past, especially 6 years ago, when you came to the home, following our loss of dennis (not his real name).. in these last days, life is harder then ever.
satan is trying to break all of us, be it through health problems, the ones we love and even our brothers and sisters where it hurts the most.

question for Leolaia - when were the oral traditions that comprise the pentateuch committed to written form
by quietlyleaving ini'm quite interested in this subject at the moment.
i was reading that in some cultures when the stories, myths and traditions began to be written down the stories etc underwent transformations as they were now accessible for critique and for moral judgements to be added.. i'd like to hear your thoughts leo and anyone else who has anything to share/discuss.
