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.
