How I managed to avoid Elders' wrath until now. Part 1...
by african GB Member ini am a 28 year-old male, and yes i am from africa, south africa to be precise.. i was brought up in the 'truth', got baptised at 17 in 1998. df'd at 22 in 2003 for fornication.. reinstated at a different cong.
in 2007 for the sake of my relationship with my family, especially mom.. after my reinstatement i was active in fs as well as attending meetings even though i could'nt comment.
a few months down the line i found out about this forum while searching the net, i continued going to meetings and fs but as time went by i started feeling like it was'nt really that important to me.

GB and Doctrine review/change
by african GB Member insome jw doctrines which were implemented years ago were clearly never thought out wisely,.
i wonder if the gb would ever consider reviewing for example, the blood doctrine which causes so many unneccesary deaths amongst jws.. and then again they would be careful not to just change it as this could possibly be met with an uproar from those who lost loved ones due to this doctrine..

I know Christmas is "wrong", but for god's sakes, what's so "wrong" about New Near's day?
by african GB Member inthis time of the year is the most stressful for jw's(especially progressive jws) as they have to explain to non-jws why they don't celebrate christmas and new year's days.. i can understand the religious implications of christmas day, but what about new years?
what is so wrong about looking forward to new beginings?
was new year celebration also started by "christendom/ babylon the great"?
