Funny song that makes some very valid points about religion
by Steve_C inperhaps this should be posted in jokes & humor.
anyway, what this humorous singer has to say about faith in god vs. religion's role in the ills of society is spot on and topical, especially in light of current child abuse scandals, including the wts.. listen, enjoy, and sing along .

Questions about disfellowshipping and 'non-sanctioned' shunning
by Steve_C inbasically, i have a couple of questions about the current rules regarding disfellowshipping and shunning.
by current i mean since 1999.. sorry, but i have to put a bit of my history to clarify my situation.. i was a born-in who was baptized in 1983. got married to a sister in 1984. then the kids came.
by the mid-1990s my wife and i had become increasingly irregular, so that by 1999 we were both inactive and only went to the memorial and conventions.. in 1999 i committed adultery, confessed to the elders, and had a judicial committee.

I can't believe Richard Marx (remember him?) is coming to my obscure area
by Steve_C ini'm sure you don't care, but i just had to post this because i was surpised that a has-been former pop singer would come to taiwan.. i was even more surprised that i found out about this from the ad banner that you see below.

Thank you to JWN member Confession
by Steve_C inconfession, thank you so much for posting this: http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/experiences/180076/1/my-jw-parents-met-my-wife-but-would-not-see-me.
you and your wife have certainly taken the high road in this situation, and you've inspired me to do the same.. i'm a born-in who's been out for about 7 years; consequently, my mom and sister shun me.
they both live in the same town, about 800 miles from where i had been living.
