Advice to Lurking Newbies?
by sweet pea ini was thinking about how it's a shame that all our potential newbies, who are undoubtedly still visiting for the first time and reading, aren't able to register and ask for everyone's help and advice with things they are experiencing right now.. so, if you had a few words of wisdom, encouragement, advice, what would it be?.
i have a feeling someone i once knew may be watching...... my advice would be:-.
don't be afraid.. if truth is truth it will stand, if it is false it will fall.. you are among friends who will not judge or condemn you for daring to use your brain, open your mind and ask questions.

How to not get disfellowshipped even though you do not believe anymore
by BonaFide inthis has been working for me well in talking with family and friends about "the truth.".
1. before you bring up a topic, talk about how we are allowed to ask questions, and we are encouraged to do so.
i have tried saying, "one thing i like about the organization is that it encourages us to use our minds, and we don't get into trouble for asking questions, the organization loves questions like the ancient bereans did.. 2. always phrase things in the form of a question.
