by In inlet us know what got you questioning wbts in the first place.
i've got a theory that it starts with people hurting us and only then does the "apostate" turn to looking at the beliefs.. anybody who started questioning beliefs first?.

freedom
by In inwrote a letter to family kinda laying out that i don't want to be apart of it anymore.
didn't specify issues, but now i'm getting the dumbest emails hounding me about how the borg is the annointed organization of god and his spirit.. it's not official yet.
i wonder if they'll disfellowship me even though i refuse to talk to them about religion.... feels really good though, to be free.. .

Holy Spirit gets fooled?
by In inwell, i honestly don't think holy spirit would be fooled, but man certainly can be.
and it looks mighty bad for holy spirit when a man claiming to have it makes a crappy decision.. just for the record, i am still in, thus the name.
i have noticed questions really upset the "friends".

Nature of God; history of triad gods; monotheism; validity of long standing beliefs
by In ini'd love to hear more from the scholars on the site here.
i've done some reading, but can't really sort it out myself and don't have much time for research.. the question is (after reading the proskenuo thread): if jesus is part of a triad god, i'd like to know how far back triad god's go in terms of human history?.
is there any evidence in the old testament for a triad god?
