Double standards for elders?
by El_Guapo ini read a post on this site that said that there is a double standard for elders as opposed to regular r&f publishers.
can't seem to find it now, but i believe it was in the elders manual stating this....... thinking back, i can vividly remember one instance: the po's (a superstar in the district) daughter was getting married.
she was marrying a "brother" who was only baptized but 3 months, yet the were able to use the hall for their wedding.. another brother in our hall (about 2 years later) was planning on getting married, he asked for permission to use the hall for his wedding and was told that his service hours were too low (he was averaging about 3-5 hours a month) i asked him later why he was so pissed at the elders and he said this was the reason.. has anyone else ever noticed this "double-standard"?.

So, is this present life it??
by Monsieur inif there is a possibility that god himself as we thought he was is not real, then,.
is our current and present life, (the daily one we live, not necessarily our aspirations) all there really is?.
what do we have to look foward to if we are aware that we are not infinite.

Why WTBTS Disfellowshipping Works...
by AGuest into the household of god, israel, and those who go with... may you all have peace!.
i just wanted to share with you, briefly, what i have come to understand as to why disfellowshipping by the wtbts works... why it can continue being fomented as it is.
i realize there are pages and pages of studies regarding cults and cult mindsets, etc., but i am not going to inundate you with such but rather try to keep this simple.

FOR ACTIVE WITNESSES ONLY - PLEASE!!
by The Searcher inthis is a sincere request to any brothers or sisters who are fearful of websites such as this; .
please imitate the beroeans who carefully examined the scriptures to see if what the apostle paul said was the truth.
they were described as being "noble minded" for doing so!!.
